The process to update the Village’s 20-year-old Comprehensive Plan soon will move toward a closer examination of specific topics through focus groups, as the effort to help guide the community’s long term future direction — Envision Oak Park — continues. Among the wide range of topics being examined as part of the effort to create a plan to help guide policy making are economic development, diversity, education, the environment, neighborhoods and transportation. A visioning event in February helped to set priorities after nearly two dozen workshops with residents, neighbors, businesses and students had identified the key issues facing the Village in the future. Details on the process and future events for citizen involvement are posted at envisionoakpark.com.
