Elmhurst Park District officials are asking residents for input on a possible $90 million referendum to replace the existing Wagner Community Center, 619 N. West Avenue, with an entirely new and much larger facility. Elmhurst Park District officials have begun surveying a sampling of registered voters to gauge interest in a possible referendum question to go on the November ballot asking voters to vote on a proposed $90 million bond issue to replace the aging Joanne B.
At an informational open house on April 29, Executive Director James Rogers told Pioneer Press the survey process was beginning, with mailed and emailed surveys going out to about 1,000 registered voters considered likely to vote in November. The survey is aimed at assessing interest in a potential referendum asking voters to consider a bond issue of just under $90 million. The bulk of that – $85 million – would pay for a new Wagner Community Center, proposed to replace the existing 32,000-square-foot building with one about four times larger at 127,000 square feet.
Whether surveyed or not, community members can comment on the plan with a “Questions? Contact us” button on the Park District website –and by public comment at Park District board meetings on June 10 and 24, July 8 and 22, and August 12.
