Gerald Smith of the New Br3ghton Park s���ard re�iew�d t:e er.26tinp, legtslation
which allows the County Board to ecquire and develop 3n open space system.
Points of significance biought out in [he discussion were:
1. The legislation Qnables [he Countp to acquire and develop
open space recreation lsnd but they must first adopt a
resolution indicating their intent co do s�. Ns of this
date such a tesolution has not been adopted.
2. The County camot spend any money under this le�islation
until Januery 1, 1972.
3. My acquisition or development wlehin a municipality under
this act must l�ave the approval of that municipality. In this
context almost any improvement to a parcel of land would
�onsEitute development.
4.� The County has the power to issue bonds for up to 15 million
dollars for acquisition and developmenc and the authority
to levy taxes without limit to pay for the bonds. H referendum
is not necessary.
5. A County Park Commission will be appointed and the County
Buard can delegate to the Commission a cunsiderable amount of
authorlty.

H general discuaelon was held to determine o:hat conclusions might Ue de—
rived from the previous comments. The :ollowing points were generally
ggreed upon:

chat the northern suburbs �et their shn:� from the �ounty.
3. A co�ittee could be formed of represeniatives �f each local �r,rlc
Board to coordinate the various communities accien on ti�e �oucty
Plan. Its basic purpose would be informational in nature.
4. Each local .'ark Board should evaluate che C�+unty plan and d�.velop some
recomne�ations for their community. Then the new committee would
a[tempt to lntetface the recommendations.
5. Prioritiea on parcels oi land within the north subur:,s should be
agreed upon if possible.
