Governor Quinn Announces Major Investments for 75 Park Projects Across Illinois


Governor Quinn Announces Major Investments for 75 Park Projects Across Illinois
OSLAD Grants Will Support Park and Recreation Projects in 28 Counties

Last Saturday Trustee Poskin and I were present in Oak Park at the Governor’s announcement of $26 million in investments for 75 local projects across Illinois.

Sauk Village was selected for a $205,000 grant to renovate Arrow Park through the Open Space Lands Acquisition and Development (OSLAD) Program.

OSLAD is a state-financed grant program that provides funding assistance to local government agencies for acquisition and/or development of land for public parks and open space.

I would like to personally thank all those that helped make this grant possible.
