Recreation grant eyed for Country Club Hills project
Country Club Hills Park District officials await a first reimbursement check from a $300,000 state grant approved two years ago. Commissioner Leonard Hines said funds were approved to support a future $4 million recreation and cultural center at Community Park. The district plans to use grant money for site improvements at the park and eventual move-in costs for new city hall space, with state approval to redirect funds and pay upfront costs for approvals and build-out.
