November 20, 2012 Regular Meeting Highlights

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
Approve 2012 Tax Levy – Ordinance 12-06
The Board of Commissioners approved Ordinance # 12-06, “An Ordinance for the levy and assessment of taxes for the year 2012.”
