The Park District’s obligation to the community is to improve all parks and facilities for the benefit of its residents. The $8 million in funding generated by this referendum would provide for:

  • Lions Park Pool facility renovations, including new water slides, spray park, mechanical systems and new family changing and accessible toilets
  • Playground enhancements at Blackhawk, Kruml and Steeves Parks
  • New pickleball courts at Prospect Park
  • New park pavilion and pathway at Hosek Park
  • New park gazebos at Kruml Park and Park Avenue Park
  • Athletic field improvements at Prospect Park
  • Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessible enhancements in all parks

What will the Park District do with the referendum funding?
