Stormwater Subcommittee Report – Howard, Spaeth, Rogers
The subcommittee met on December 5. Park Board representatives explained to City representatives that the Park Board needed more information to make a determination if the Park Board will consider a vote to reconsider the use of the east lobe of York Commons Park. The City has yet to present the Park District with any new information that would cause the Park Board to reconsider its decision.
The subcommittee explained the importance of looking at the cost increments between the east and west lobe. The City’s engineers will contact the District’s V3 engineer directly, who will in turn inform the District.
Alderman Healy proposed adding to the IGA that the City would agree to restore the encumbered property to the Park District at a future date. The concept was not fully discussed but discussions will continue at another subcommittee meeting.
