Truth
and Taxation Hearing for the 2012 Tax Levy
The Glen Ellyn Park District held a
public hearing for the 2012 tax levy.
Lake
Ellyn Master Plan – Lenox Road
The Board of Commissioners came to a
consensus to forward on the conceptual plan that identifies the Park District
priorities regarding Lenox Road reconstruction. Those priorities include:
- Effectively narrow Lenox Road with parking space delineated separately from through-lanes
- Angled parking strategically placed between Hawthorne and Linden
- Parallel parking strategically placed between Linden and Essex
- Speed table at the intersection of Linden and Lenox
- Sections of reduced overall pavement width from Hawthorne to Essex where recessed parallel or angled parking is not located. This further improves traffic calming along Lenox Road
- Designated handicap parking on Lenox near Linden south of the main Park entrance
- Delineated mid-block crosswalks (one between Hawthorne and Linden, and one between Linden and Essex)
- Meandering pathway along the west side of Lake Ellyn Park near Lenox
