ITF New DevelopementYou can now read a CMAP news release based on feedback we received from over 20,000 residents of northeastern Illinois from May to September 2009 during the “Invent the Future” phase of public input for GO T0 2040

Residents want more transit options and compact development based on input gathered via interactive web tools, workshops, kiosks and booths at community festivals.  There was also strong support for increased investments in transit and expanded programs for natural resource conservation.  View this fact sheet to see charts summarizing input we received and how the draft preferred Regional Scenario addresses the priorities expressed by the public.

 We're so busy with the Photo Contest sorting that we completely forgot to post our weekly Flickr photo yesterday, from submissions to our Explore Northeastern Illinois Flickr Pool. This week's photo is a reminder of the furry residents of Northeastern Illinois with a shot of a surprised whitetailed deer in Des Plains by Flickr user urbanwoodswalker.
