(Completed fall 2018) — Residents and forest preserve patrons attended an open house to view proposed project designs for the St. James Farm Forest Preserve indoor arena on January 30, 2016. The designs were also available online for public comment.
The Forest Preserve District hired Cordogan Clark & Associates Inc. of Aurora, Illinois, to assess the current condition of the building and develop a project design. The Board of Commissioners approved a contract for improvements to the indoor arena in October 2017. Construction began in October and is expected to be complete in 2018.
Approximately $3.1 million from construction and development funds and the St. James Farm McCormick Endowment funds are budgeted for the design, permitting and construction of this project.
