DAVE SANDERS WAY
Senate Joint Resolution 60 designates a specific section of Southwest Highway in Palos Park as 'Dave Sanders Way' to honor David Sanders and his family's long-term contributions to the community. The bill requires the Illinois Department of Transportation to install and maintain signs displaying this new name along the stretch of road between 12600 and 13100. This legislative action serves as a formal recognition of the Sanders family's stewardship of The Center in Palos Park, a regional institution that has operated since 1932.
