My city created a proposed land use plan for the future- with the conversion of my residential prop. to business/commercial?

A future land use plan may be a guideline to development as opposed to a binding set if rules to convert property.

There certainly needs to be a lot more detail provided in what is going on to make a specific recommendation.

Many such comprehensive plans are in place to state a vision of how future development might go. Without more I cannot say. Feel free to contact me to discuss more specifics if you would like.

I am in Chicago.
