SUPPORT-PROMONTORY POINT PLAN

This Senate resolution expresses official support for the Community Preservation Plan for Promontory Point, a historic 40-acre peninsula in Chicago's Burnham Park. The measure acknowledges that the plan aims to repair and rehabilitate the site's step-stone limestone revetment and promenade to control shoreline erosion while adhering to strict historic preservation standards. By citing various funding sources and past agreements, the bill validates the project's goal of maintaining the area's historic integrity and its role as a community gathering space. Ultimately, the resolution directs a copy of the document to the Promontory Point Conservancy to formalize legislative backing for the initiative.
