La Grange residents near the North campus of Lyons Township High School may be getting some relief from the devastating flooding in recent years.
“For this depression, we’ve developed a project to provide underground flood storage at the Lyons Township High School field to the West,” Burke said. Costs of the projects are $9 million for the Sunset and Elm improvements and $17.1 million for the MARS project. The rest are yet to be determined, although Burke said that current estimates for OARS were “somewhere around $13 million,” the underpass improvements were around $5 million, and that addressing flooding issues near Stone and Brainard avenues came in at $7 million.
Burke said that the flooding relief at Sunset and Elm would be “nominal,” and that the only viable solution for Sunset and Elm was the vault at the high school.
