Representatives from Elmhurst University attended a recent Elmhurst Zoning & Planning Commission (ZPC) meeting to share their plans to increase the amount of seating at Langhorst Field.
Additional restroom facilities are to be added on the southwest side of the track, which will offer a place to add bleacher seating on the top of it. There are virtually no other places to add more seating to the stadium, according to university officials who added that the area was revitalized in recent years and this development will be a welcome addition to the field.
The measure was passed unanimously by the Commission. It now goes before the Development, Planning & Zoning Committee and, if approved, goes before the full City Council.
