I ask you and the Chicago Park District to conduct a phased renovation of Clarendon Park's historic community center building in a way that fully reflects and supports the park's existing programming and people.

Home to Kuumba Lynx and Garfield-Clarendon Model Railroad Club  and offering critical afterschool, athletic, and garden programming, Clarendon Park is the Uptown community's historic central park, serving thousands year-round.

Thank you for making sure that the community served by the park is reached, their voices heard, and their wishes respected.
