Moving on: Elgin Mall has a new home in East Dundee
Trustees voted 4-1 approving a zoning change and special use permit to allow the mall to move into a shuttered Dominick's store at the River Valley Square shopping center off Dundee Avenue. Trustee Rich Treiber voted against the zoning change and special use permit.
The search for a new home began in July, when the Elgin Mall's former management informed more than 90 vendors that it would be closing by the end of August. Vendors quickly came together, formed a new ownership group and worked with the building owner to extend their lease in Elgin. "It has been a learning experience," Leal said after Monday's vote."It was a little bit stressful at times ... but now that we're here and we know that we got accepted, we know that it was all worth the while and the work that we have put into it."
A popular weekend destination, the Elgin Mall attracts shoppers from the Chicago region looking for traditional Mexican clothes, religious items, jewelry, boots, electronics, furniture and other products.Owners of the Elgin Mall Group estimate the mall's annual revenue at $12.5 million annually, which could mean up to $200,000 in sales tax revenue for the village.
