Zoning for Vibrant Villages
Stephenson County · in development

Stephenson: the local version of the question.

The Stephenson County page applies the same corridor template that anchors the Hanover–Elizabeth pilot in Jo Daviess, adapted to the Pecatonica watershed and to the villages of Freeport · Lena · Orangeville.

This page is a working draft.

What this page will become.

§ 01

The Jo Daviess template uses a six-section structure: why this corridor first, the corridor in pictures, what people are asking, what the villages could be, local zoning context, and how to engage.

For Stephenson County, the corridor candidates and the local stakeholder questions are different. The shape of the conversation is the same.

Candidate corridors for Stephenson.

To be drafted with input from Stephenson County landowners, board members, and residents. The Stephenson page will name two villages, roughly within twenty minutes of each other at LSV speed, as the local pilot candidates.
