Prairie Grove Town Center and TOD Development Plan
Description
This study will create a transit-oriented development plan for the Village that encompasses an approximate ½ mile radius of the location of the future station on the spur of Metra's Union Pacific Northwest Line.
Current Activities
The Prairie Grove Village Board adopted the Town Center plan on June 15, 2010. This station is part of the proposed UP-NW Extension plans. According to the 2016 State of the System Report, Metra is pursuing funding for this project from the federal New Starts program. The UP-NW Extension Alternatives Analysis and Environmental Impact Statement phases have been completed.

The Village was also included in the 2011 Community Planning Program of projects to update their TOD area zoning regulations in anticipation of new development. These regulations are currently on hold as the property clears the foreclosure process. As soon as the property is clear, the Village will consider adopting these regulations.
