Mayor’s Comments on Zoning Meeting

City of Minonk – Public Announcement

The City of Minonk is pleased to announce that the Minonk Zoning Board has approved the initial request by Plus Healthcare to operate an Assisted Living and Independent Living Facility at the former Heritage Nursing Home location on Locust Street.

During the presentation, representatives of Plus Healthcare outlined a two-phase plan for revitalizing the facility. In Phase One, the north wing of the building will be reopened to serve as an Independent Living Facility for members of our elderly community. This facility will offer residents nursing support, daily meals, and a variety of planned activities.

Phase Two will involve the rehabilitation of the south wing, which sustained damage from a recent water leak. Once necessary repairs and updates are completed, this portion of the facility will open as an Assisted Living and Skilled Nursing Facility, providing enhanced care for individuals with greater medical or personal needs.

The final vote on the Special Use Permit is scheduled for July 7. Both facilities will be subject to licensing and approval by the Illinois Department of Public Health.

We look forward to the positive impact this development will bring to our community and to our seniors.
