  • Initial Recommendation Directions for the Des Plaines River Trail: South Extension Planning Study
    INTERIM DOCUMENT FOR INTERNAL REVIEW ONLY – NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION May 10, 2019 Initial Recommendation Directions for the Des Plaines River Trail: South Extension Planning Study The Planning Study for the South Extension of the Forest Preserve District of Cook County’s Des Plaines River Trail is currently in the draft development stage. Based on the assessment of priorities identified through the study process thus far – including the findings of the Existing Conditions Report, public outreach activities, steering committee input, and key stakeholder interviews – common issues and opportunities have emerged that provide direction for formulating recommendations. At the same time, efforts to obtain and interpret additional information and input that could help identify potential trail alignments in the study area are ongoing. Results from both previous and ongoing efforts will be taken into consideration and will help to shape the study’s ultimate recommendations. This memorandum outlines the major sections or themes proposed for the Study Report and potential key recommendation directions within each section. The memorandum is for discussion purposes only. Summary of key considerations, issues, and priorities The existing conditions analysis and input received from the core team, Steering Committee members, and key stakeholders serve as the foundation for the creation of the Des Plaines River Trail: South Extension Planning Study. The Existing Conditions Report identifies key issues and examines information related to potential trail alignments, community connector routes, and feasibility. With an understanding of those issues, the goals of the project are to: 1. Leverage recent, significant investments in the study area to improve off-street trail connections.
