A new restaurant is planned for the Old Village Hall in downtown Huntley.
Operators of Elgin-based Cafe Roma confirmed they have plans to open shop in the Old Village Hall building.
The village has looked at plans for the site’s redevelopment three times this year, in April, August and, most recently, earlier this month.
Besides a restaurant, plans for the building include a banquet space.
In August, trustees said they would like to see awnings on the building, which developer True North Properties included in its latest renderings, according to village documents.
No restaurant had agreed yet to move in when the trustees gave their feedback in August. Trustees liked the third iteration of the renderings.
“Cafe Roma … is what this town is looking for,” Trustee Vito Benigno said in the meeting.
Other updates since the summer besides True North Properties securing a restaurant include the Huntley Chamber of Commerce moving to the Union Special building.
Cafe Roma is targeting a spring or summer 2025 opening date.
“I’m looking forward to it,” Mayor Tim Hoeft said.
