Make sure we have an assortment of house sizes in Northbrook and not just extreme large homes. We need small, medium and large homes.

Post your idea about any of the following categories: Communication and Transparency, Community Activities and Belonging, Economic Development, Public Safety, Public Spaces and Beautification, or Village Infrastructure.

What would be the same and what would be different in the next five years? (max 140 characters).
