Champaign County Greenways & Plan

The second meeting, held on January 28, 2003, asked participants to identify their ideal greenways and trails system. Residents outlined general goals and implementation activities, as well as specific regional, local, and neighborhood level greenways and trails projects they would like to see created over the next 20 years. Approximately 45 residents also attended this event.

Project Prioritization The Greenways and Trails Steering Committee created a project prioritization checklist that helps determine how well proposed projects comply with the goals and objectives of this plan. Goals and objectives, and thus the project prioritization factors, were developed based on input from the public and best planning practices. More information on project prioritization can be found on page 35. The list of prioritized projects can be found beginning on page 36.

Existing Conditions Champaign County Champaign County is located in the heart of east-central Illinois (see Maps 1 and 2). Champaign and Urbana, the primary cities of Champaign County, are approximately 136 miles south of Chicago, 120 miles west of Indianapolis, Indiana and 165 miles north-northeast of St. Louis, Missouri. The county is the fifth largest in the State of Illinois, with 638,528 acres. Of these acres, ap- proximately 5,085, or .7%, are designated as parks. Of the non-agricultural area in the county, approximately 4.7% are park acres.

The total population of Champaign County for the 2000 Census was 179,669. The largest urban areas in Champaign County are Champaign (Census 2000 population 67,518), Urbana (36,395), and Rantoul (12,857). Eighty-four per- cent of the county’s population lives in urban areas, including the cities and in- corporated villages.

Champaign County, under the auspices of the Champaign County Forest Pre- serve District, has four forest preserves: Lake of the Woods, Homer Lake, Mid- dle Fork River, and its latest acquisition, River Bend.

• Lake of the Woods Forest Preserve, shown in Map 3, covers approxi- mately 900 acres. Paved roads within the park connect historical land- marks, the lake, the Early American Museum, Mabery Gelvin Botanical , and the Hartwell C. Howard Golf Course. A 3.3 mile bike runs through Lake of the Woods from Prairieview Road on the east to Crowley Road on the west side of the park.

• Middle Fork River Forest Preserve, shown in Map 4, covers approximately 1,608 acres in the northeastern corner of the county. The preserve con- tains two restored wetlands habitats and several ponds as well as part of Hi Tower, Lake of the Woods. the Middle Fork River. Highlights of the preserve include the Harry L. Swartz Campground with adjacent shower house, the Activity Center, an Amphitheater and 6.5 miles of hiking trails.
