Townley Field Corridor

Members of the Kenilworth Community,

What were once two concepts, have now become one concept based on your amazing and thoughtful feedback. The Kenilworth Park District has applied for the Open Space Land Acquisition and Development (OSLAD) grant. The grant is for $400,000 in matching funding from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.

Next Steps

Due to the size and complexity of this project and pairing that with the limited financial ability of the Park District, private funding will need to be raised in order for this project to move forward. The Park District will be interviewing professional fundraising groups to assist in this incredible effort. In the coming weeks, the District will develop a plan of action on how to move forward with a thoughtful and transparent fundraising effort. Kenilworth Residents will be updated regularly on all aspects of the Townley Field Corridor project and a communication plan will be a large part of our efforts. Please stay tuned and sign up for our e-newsletter for more updates. 

If you would like to be involved in any potential committees for the Townley Field Corridor, please reach out to Executive Director John Kiwala at jkiwala@kpdistrict.org.
