Report Title: Gateway Master Plan
Report Period: 2015
Summary: The Gateway Master Plan was developed in response to a challenge identified in the Next Century Conservation Plan that many residents are unaware of forest preserves nearby and have difficulty finding their way once they arrive. This report identifies 30 special forest preserve sites in highly visible, high-traffic locations throughout Cook County that have special qualities, access, support amenities and partnership opportunities. The Plan recommends enhanced signage, way-finding, art and other amenities, as well as programs and marketing to encourage people to get outdoors and get healthy at these sites. Major support for the Plan was provided by the Cook County Department of Public Health through a Partners in Community Healthy (PICH) grant from the federal Center for Disease Control.
