Opportunities for
Community Input
During the process we will work tirelessly to understand your thoughts on how we can make the 5th Avenue Development one that is valued for years to come. The main objective for this process is to gain input from individuals, groups and community stakeholders in order to identify key issues as well as opportunities, so we may create a vision and concept that will greatly enhance the community. There will be a number of opportunities to express thoughts and concerns, share ideas and provide invaluable input on the development.
Take A Survey
The 5th Avenue Development Land Use & Height Survey is now closed. Once the full survey analysis is complete the results will be posted on this website and shared at the June 19 City Council Meeting.

Working Groups
The Steering Committee chose to move forward with the following Working Groups: land use, storm water, pedestrian safety/connectivity, traffic/transportation, parking and design. Each group consists of 4-5 community representatives, a City Council member, city staff, and representatives of Ryan Companies.
They are tasked with:
- Evaluation of existing information
- Engagement with technical consultant on relevant subject matter
- Inviting and considering community feedback on the particular working group topic
- Completing related due diligence and identifying potential solutions that are financially feasible
- Collaboration with other Working Groups in summarizing the finding of the overall effort

The six Working Groups will come together for a combined, interactive meeting open to the public on Monday, June 4 at 6:30 p.m. in Council Chambers of the Naperville Municipal Center. This will be a chance to hear more about findings, potential solutions and participate in a town hall engagement experience.
