The Lake County Forest Preserves is seeking public input on a preliminary concept plan to guide recreation improvements and natural resource restoration activities on 312 acres recently added to the Fox River Preserve in Port Barrington. The public is invited to review and discuss the plan at a Planning Open House on Tuesday, November 10, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Lake Barrington Village Hall, 23860 N. Old Barrington Rd., Lake Barrington.
At the Open House, Forest Preserve professional staff, in an informal setting, will gather feedback on the concept plan and answer questions about the preserve. Those unable to attend the Open House can view the plan at www.LCFPD.org/fpplan, and email comments to Kirsten Sittler, Landscape Architect, ksittler@lcfpd.org or call her at 847-968-3270.
All comments will be reviewed by the Forest Preserve Board of Commissioners and taken into consideration for the site’s planning. A final conceptual master plan that best serves the overall District and public needs will be developed and presented to the Forest Preserve Board of Commissioners in spring 2010 for their approval. Funding for construction of this project is budgeted in 2013. |
