Summary

Tourism committee members said they had contacted Monte Bernadoni (IDNR) about presenting options for trails and parking at a newly acquired parcel; no formal action was taken and staff will follow up for a future presentation.

Committee members discussed next steps for developing trails and parking at newly acquired county land and said they had attempted to contact the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) representative Monte Bernadoni to present options.

Committee chair reported calling a number provided by Matthew Klein; staff left messages and learned the contact was on vacation. Committee members later identified the contact as Monte Bernadoni and said he oversees Matheson Park and could provide guidance for the annexed parcel. No formal motion or funding decision was taken; staff said they would follow up and try to schedule a presentation for the next meeting.

Committee member questions focused on scheduling a consultant or IDNR representative to present design and parking options. One committee member said Bernadoni would likely bring a colleague for the presentation. The item will return to old business after staff secures a date.

No votes were recorded on this item during the June 20 meeting.
