Our speaker was Scott Freres from the Lakota group who spoke about the Winnetka Lakefront Master Plan 2030, which can be found at:
 
 
This plan took two years to complete at a cost of $240,000, of which $119,000 was from a matching grant from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources Coastal Management Program. This is a “living document,” not a blue print for development or construction. It envisions a long term preservation and enhancement process viewing the lake front as an asset.
