These Goals are provided to ensure that our neighborhoods always function as unique livable communities. Resources u u Code Enforcement and Property Maintenance u u Appearance Commission u u Downtown Glenview Revitalization Goal NH-1 Glenview shall continue to maintain, preserve and enhance the quality of Glenview’s neighborhoods. NH-1.1 NH-1.2 Within established neighborhoods, new residential development shall be of a character, size, density and quality architecture that respects the traditional neighborhood character and maintains the quality of life for existing and future residents. Higher density housing should maintain high quality standards for unit design, privacy, security, on-site amenities, and public and private open space. Such standards should be flexible enough to allow innovative design solutions in special circumstances, e.g. in developing mixed- use developments or in housing in the Downtown District (D-D). NH-1.3 Continue to evaluate modifications to the high quality standards within the Appearance Code in order to protect the Village’s character and investigate ways to streamline the review process. 3.12 Glenview Looking Forward • Neighborhoods (NH) P to o h
