We believe that any sale to a developer who develops the property outside of the bounds of the current residential, retail, and senior living zoning will have a negative impact on the immediate environment surrounding the land as well as a negative impact on the quality of life, home values and tax base throughout the area. We further believe that through collaborative efforts, a sale of the property can be brokered that brings about development to the Willow Springs property as it is currently zoned, does not negatively impact the community at large and will still bring about a substantial financial benefit to LT. We believe these goals are not mutually exclusive, and a win-win solution can be achieved for all affected parties.
However, we also want to ensure that our community's health, well-being, quality of life, and property values are not negatively impacted by the sale and subsequent development of this property. Our community understands and appreciates the desire of LT to improve its learning environments and make meaningful updates to aging buildings. Due to the proximity of the property to Pleasantdale Elementary School, many homes, White Buffalo Park, and 7 additional acres under consideration for future development by Pleasant Dale Park District that are surrounded by the LT property, we are sure you can understand how this has become an important issue for many of the various stakeholders in our community. There has been much discussion and debate regarding the sale of the Lyons Township High School District 204 (“LT”) owned property that is bound by 79th Street, Willow Springs Road and German Church Road / 83rd Street. This letter is a result of the collaborative efforts between the authors of this letter as signed below.
Dear Lyons Township High School District 204 Board of Education, The purpose of this letter is to share the common position of the greater Willow Springs, Burr Ridge and Pleasantdale community.
