Yesterday, State Senator Julie Morrison, State Representative Bob Morgan and I met with local park district administrators and board members to discuss current priorities and challenges.
Key issues included permit processes that delay community projects and raise costs, and public safety, including preventing e-bike damage to parks. Park districts are also big local employers, and more full and part-time job applications, especially from the community, are welcome and encouraged.
Thank you to the Park District of Highland Park for hosting us and to everyone who shared their experiences and priorities.
