Acting on the advice of some Lake Zurich leaders, the developer who last year proposed an eight-unit townhouse building along the village s namesake lake has partnered with the neighboring property owner and is expanding the project s scope.
The initial proposal for the residential building and a 4,000-square-foot commercial building on one lot now calls for two additional townhouse buildings on the neighboring lot, bringing the total number of residential units to 23. The development would be located just southeast of the busy intersection of Route 12 and Old Rand Road.
