ELMHURST, IL A group home for men with addictions is already in operation in north Elmhurst, but it is seeking a city permit to continue.
In 2018, the group home started at 348 N. Larch Ave., drawing some neighborhood opposition. The home now has seven residents and is seeking permission for up to eight, according to the city. The property has long been considered a problem by neighbors, going back at least 15 years.
