Title: Glencoe considers incentives to save old homes.
Authors: Rodkin, Dennis (AUTHOR)

Subjects: Historic preservation, Demolition, Reward (Psychology), Housing development, Historic sites, Architectural style
Abstract: The article focuses on Glencoe's consideration of a preservation incentive program aimed at reducing the demolition of older homes, following Hinsdale's similar efforts that began in 2022. Glencoe's proposed incentives include allowing larger home additions on historic lots and offering rebates on permit fees for rehabilitation work on designated landmark homes, with the goal of maintaining the village's architectural character. The program targets approximately 85 homes with landmark status and may also introduce demolition fees to discourage teardowns. The article highlights challenges faced by homeowners competing with builders who purchase older properties to replace them with larger, more expensive new constructions. [Extracted from the article]
