Cudahy : Building Freeze Extended

The Cudahy City Council has extended a moratorium on construction of hotels, motels and mini-malls along the commercial and manufacturing zone on Atlantic Avenue. The council voted to extend the existing 45-day moratorium to 10 months and 15 days while the Planning Commission studies development plans for Cudahy’s major commercial area, City Manager Gerald Caton said.

There are no pending developments along the mile strip, but the council for the past two years has been concerned over how the avenue was developing, Caton said. The moratorium was first instituted June 13.
