Background:
|
In July 2013, the Wheaton Park District and Community Unit School District 200 agreed to an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) for the Lease, Construction, Recreational Use and Maintenance of a Synthetic Turf Field at Monroe Middle School. CUSD 200 was and continues to own the property (field areas) behind Monroe Middle School. |

|
Summary:
|
In the summer of 2024, the Wheaton Park District approached CUSD 200 to discuss an extension to the existing IGA between both parties for the turf field behind Monroe Middle School. The purpose of extension request was to support the Wheaton Park District's submission of an OSLAD Grant (Open Space Lands Acquisition & Development) to the Illinois Department of Natural Resources for a full replacement of the synthetic turf field behind Monroe Middle School. The change in the term of the agreement (25 to 40 years) aligns with requirements in the OSLAD Grant and ensures that the Wheaton Park District will bear sole responsibility for maintaining and replacing the turf field during the 40-year term. If the Wheaton Park District is awarded the OSLAD Grant, the project will be completed in 2025. A copy of a signed First Amendment to the Lease Agreement and the Ordinance approved by the Wheaton Park District Board are attached. |

|
Funding:
|
All funding for the replacement of the synthetic field at Monroe Middle School will be the sole responsibility of the Wheaton Park District for the duration of this agreement. |
