Indoor Pickleball Facility ‘Pickled!’ Gets Green Light in Frankfort
A new indoor pickleball facility named “Pickled!” is set to open in Frankfort after the Village Board granted a special use permit for the business at its Monday meeting.
The facility will be located at 20825 S. LaGrange Road, Suite A, in the B-2 Community Business District. The applicant, Nathan Patrick Taylor of Pickled Inc., required a special use permit for indoor recreation to operate the pickleball business.
The proposal was presented by Trustee Adam Borrelli, who noted that the Plan Commission had forwarded a unanimous recommendation for approval following a public hearing on May 22.
According to village documents, the business will occupy an approximately 17,500-square-foot space in the shopping center that also houses Planet Fitness. The proposed layout includes seven pickleball courts, a small “pro-shop,” and hours of operation from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily.
Board members welcomed the new establishment during their comments. “A warm welcome was also extended to Pickled, and appreciation was expressed to all residents and businesses investing in the community,” one trustee remarked, reflecting the board’s excitement for the new recreational offering.
