What Provisions Will There Be for Private Property?
|
|
No acquisition of
residential private property is being considered as part of the park
proposal. All existing garbage dumps within the park area would be
closed, sealed, placed under owner liability escrow, and included in the
park as open space. While we are working to establish the ecological park,
CEPA monitors new proposals for land use that would be
destructive to our goals, such as new landfills. We work in coalition
with other organizations to prevent degrading land uses in the area.

The 100th Street Bridge is an
historical connection to the industrial heyday of Chicago's southside and
the inexpensive water transportation of the river systems.
