AI-assisted researchHow this was researched and checked

The owners of 400-410 Higgins Rd sought site plan review to use the building there as a child day care center with an outdoor play area. The Planning and Zoning Commission approved the site plan review on August 25, 2020 by a vote of 8–0, with conditions that include removing the nonconforming monument sign. On November 10, 2020 it approved a major amendment to the approved site plan by a vote of 7–0, adding a condition that signs restricting turns from Vine Avenue into the alley be posted.

After the decision: permits at this address

Permits dated after Aug 25, 2020 (Planning and Zoning Commission approves the site plan).

Computed by code from the building permits in the Park Ridge property release (the county permit feed), as of Nov 1, 2026. A permit shows that work was authorized, not that it was completed, and no permit recorded does not establish that nothing was built. A parcel matched by address is nominated by the address written in the record; that does not prove the record concerns it.
