Help Build a Better Chicago Heights

If you want to help steer Chicago Heights into to future, now’s your chance.

All residents are invited to the park district on Wednesday, Nov. 13 to generate ideas for Chicago Heights’ long-term plan—which extends until 2030.

The meeting is part of the city’s partnership with the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP). The work being done is intended to result in Chicago Heights’ first comprehensive plan since 1994. Its aim is to address the long-term concerns of residents, business owners, community leaders and city government. The project is funded by a $100,000 Technical Assistance Grant from CMAP.

“This is a wonderful opportunity for the people of Chicago Heights to take ownership over the future of their city,” Mayor David Gonzalez said.

The meeting will be held Wednesday, Nov. 13 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Chicago Heights Park District, 1400 Chicago Road. Light refreshments will be provided.
