Do you support Volunteers of America Illinois’ proposal for a veterans apartment complex at the vacated Joliet campus of Silver Cross Hospital?









Updated: January 16, 2013 8:50PM



The Volunteers of America has started building veterans housing for low-income mothers and families.

In the future, a spokesman said, the nonprofit group may consider senior housing for veterans at the old Silver Cross Hospital site in Joliet.

The Joliet Zoning Board of Appeals will consider a special-use permit for the plan during its meeting at 1:30 p.m. Thursday at City Hall. The Plan Commission is scheduled to consider a subdivision plan for the 3.2-acre site at 4 p.m. Thursday.
