Resident Input Sought on Glen Carbon Parks and Trails Master Plan

by Kathy Turner

GLEN CARBON — Residents of Glen Carbon are encouraged to provide input on the latter stages of the village’s Parks and Trails Master Plan. The final public meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, Sept. 25.

The Village started the Parks and Trails Master Plan with a planning team consisting of TWM Engineers and Planning Design Studio in February of 2023. The goal of the master plan is to guide development of Glen Carbon’s parks and trails over the next decade.

Residents are encouraged to provide input on the plan. The Parks and Trails Master Plan will assure that, as Glen Carbon continues to grow, the needs relative to recreation and green space are met for all residents.

The public meeting will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. on Sept. 25 at the Glen Carbon Senior and Community Center. Residents are encouraged to view the master plan online through the Village website at www.glencarbonil.gov.
