Summary: The Forest Preserves relationship with the Oak Park Tennis Center was established more than one hundred (100) years ago. The current revenue-generating agreement expires December 11, 2024. It originally included a renewal option for thirty-six (36) months. However, because the Forest Preserves is exploring future options for this site that are more mission compatible, the Forest Preserves seeks authorization from the Forest Preserves Board of Commissioners to amend the current agreement to include and utilize a two (2) year extension with one (1) twelve (12) month extension option.
