District receives $260,000 grant


The Plainfield Park District recently announced that it has been awarded an Open Space Lands Acquisition and Development (OSLAD) grant administered by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources in the amount of $260,000 for the development of Creekside Crossing South.


OSLAD grants provide up to one-half of a project’s funds, with the rest of the funding coming from the Plainfield Park District’s capital and special recreation funds.


The primary objective of the 5.7-acre Creekside Crossing South development is to provide unique recreational amenities for the southwest region of the Plainfield Park District. The site is part of the Creekside housing development, which stalled out after 2008, but restarted in in the past few years on the south side of Renwick Road. The park site is needed for the new residents.
