The Chicago Southland Chamber of Commerce took a first time daylong visit to Cook County Board offices to press for economic development, a proposed area convention center, airport plans, and to highlight area tax issues.

Crestwood Mayor Chester Stranczek envisions a new ballpark on Kenton Avenue for the Cook County Cheetahs, a Class A minor league team from Romeoville.
