yielded a high-quality site that is ready for development. Abbott has remained cognizant of the village’s need to maintain economic development efforts for the good of the community and region as a whole,” Village Administrator Michael Pollocoff said in a news release.

“Village leadership has a strong desire to ensure that the last remaining developable land along I-94 in our community be reserved for its highest and best use.”

Over the past decade, Abbott, the village and its partners have worked to prepare Abbott’s 458-acre site and the surrounding corridor for future use and development. This effort included work to improve roadways, expand interchanges and facilitate development of surrounding areas to attract business investment.

Since these improvements to the corridor, Uline relocated its corporate headquarters from Waukegan to the area, Premium Outlets shopping center has expanded and there has been additional office and industrial growth north along I-94, according to the village of Pleasant Prairie.

The Pleasant Prairie Plan Commission met Monday to discuss the project.

The village board will then consider the proposed plans at a public meeting on Monday, April 17.
