Building renovations and additions are in various stages in the Crystal Lake area.
The Crystal Lake Park District held a public hearing last week regarding the sale of $2.1 million in General Obligation Limited Tax Park Bonds, “….for the payment of land, condemned or purchased for parks, for the building, maintaining, improving and protecting of the same and the existing land and facilities of the district and for the payment of the expenses incident thereto (the “Bonds”) and facilities of the District and for the payment of the expenses incident thereto.”
A plan is in place for a facility, but final action on the contract with the company is contingent upon obtaining the necessary property. That is where the bond will be necessary in order to obtain the site and have sufficient funding to construct a building.
The location has not been revealed as yet.
According to discussions in the planning process regarding a building, consolidation of the spread out Park District facilities is desirable.
Other planning for expansion is McHenry County College with a meeting scheduled Tuesday morning (October 25) for a presentation on the facility master plan as well as an update on the Building B renovations.
The Crystal Lake Library has held meetings regarding how to use the space they have. The Library board is not planning to build additional space, but instead is looking at ways to make better use of the space already in place.
