January 9, 2012 Park/City/School Committee Meeting

City Manager Jim Grabowski shared the City of Elmhurst Comprehensive Flooding Plan Presentation prepared by Burke Engineering and dated December 5, 2011. He explained that City staff had met previously with staff counterparts (referencing the meeting with Park District staff on October 19, 2011) from the School and Park Districts about the engineer's findings and that the City's stormwater task force subcommittees were looked at and a number of potential solutions exist, a number of which could impact Park/School/City property.  The citizen task force hopes to make recommendations to the City Council in May.  Afterwards, additional discussions will need to be held with all agencies.  The committee agreed that there exists much opportunity for cooperation and that proactive communication on the potential solutions would be crucial.
