Mayor Hoefer says school project underscores Mount Prospect’s partnerships and broader town investments
Summary
Mayor Paul Hoefer told students the Lincoln Middle School project reflects a close village–district partnership and is part of wider investments — downtown growth, flood control and a new aquatics facility — intended to keep the town competitive and attractive.
Mayor Paul Hoefer used the site tour to connect the Lincoln Middle School project to broader community goals and to praise the partnership between the village and District 57. He described that relationship as cooperative and supportive as the town pursues multiple capital improvements.
Hoefer said the village and district have worked "hand in glove" and described the new school as evidence the town is forward‑looking: "We're not living in the past. Right? We're living in the future. We're building new schools." He also listed related local projects, including downtown growth, flood control work and a planned park district aquatics facility, as part of a broader strategy to sustain the community.
