  • (SVT). to Ensure All Residents Stay Informed, We Thought It Would Be Helpful to Provide You with Answers to the Most Frequently Asked Questions
    May 20, 2019 Dear Northfield Resident, The Village has received questions regarding the planned Skokie Valley Trail (SVT). To ensure all residents stay informed, we thought it would be helpful to provide you with answers to the most frequently asked questions. Q: What is the SVT? A: The SVT is a linear multi-modal connection that stretches from Rockland Road in Lake Bluff to West Bryn Mawr Avenue in Chicago, where it links to the North Branch Trail. Completing Northfield’s segment of the trail has been a goal in the Village’s Comprehensive Plan since 1999, with little progress. In 2008, the Village partnered with the Villages of Glencoe, Glenview, Northbrook, and Wilmette to complete a Feasibility Study. This study showed that complete construction of the SVT would fill a critical transportation need as a dedicated off-street route for bicyclists and pedestrians throughout the North Shore. The SVT was classified as a Tier One corridor by the Northwest Municipal Conference in their 2010 Bicycle Plan, indicating that its construction would provide the highest positive regional impact. In 2012, the SVT was voted a “regionally significant project” by the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning. Q: What are the three phases of the proposed SVT project? A: A project of this sort encompasses three phases. In the first phase, engineers conduct an in-depth investigation of the project’s logistical, environmental, safety, and economic elements. In the second phase, detailed construction documents are developed. Finally, in the third phase, the project is constructed. Working in partnership with the villages of Wilmette, Glenview, and Skokie, the Village of Northfield is currently conducting the Phase I study of the 4.15 mile segment of the SVT spanning from Northfield’s northern border to Old Orchard Road.

All said aye. Discussion on the Skokie Valley Bike Trail Assistant to the Village Manager (“AVM”) Melissa DeFeo said that the Village has been eyeing the completion of the Skokie Valley Trail since the feasibility study was completed in 2008. When completed, the trail will provide an uninterrupted linear multi-modal connection between Lake Bluff and Chicago, running primarily along the discontinued Union Pacific corridor, ComEd right-of-way, and Village right-of-way. The trail is regionally significant and has been identified as a priority by a number of agencies, including the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning and the Northwest Municipal Conference. Since 2008, communities along the trail have submitted a number of collaborative grant applications to fund the Phase I Engineering, and each was denied.

The Great Chicago Fire of 1871 destroyed many Cook County records, including birth, marriage and death records. Before European settlement, members of the Potawatomi tribe lived in the area. The village of Wilmette is named after Antoine Ouilmette, a French-Canadian fur trader who was married to a Potawatomi woman, and received land in present-day Wilmette for his part in signing the second Treaty of Prairie du Chien in 1829.
