Park Forest, IL—(ENEWSPF)—July 10, 2011. The Village of Park Forest is working closely with the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) to create a Sustainability Plan for the community – an important element in Mayor Ostenburg’s initiative to make Park Forest a model community for sustainability. It is also a key part of CMAP’s implementation of their recently adopted GO TO 2040 Plan, the first regional comprehensive plan since Daniel Burnham’s famous Plan for Chicago. When completed, Park Forest’s Sustainability Plan will become a model for the development of similar plans throughout the Chicago metropolitan area. Resident input is vital in the development of this Plan.
