About the Fred Anderson PAC On Tuesday July 1, 2014, a meeting was held to form a park advisory council (PAC) for the purpose of nominating officers and to be a registered PAC with the Chicago Park District. The PAC and membership has met since then to monitor construction progress, and discuss plans for a grand opening celebration (to be held Spring 2015). The park quietly opened in late December, 2014.
What is a PAC? The stated purpose of PAC as outlined by the CPD: "To have a positive impact on the park and surrounding community. Provide CPD staff with an advisory voice related to a specific park. These matters include but are not limited to Facilities, Equipment Improvements, Programming, Landscaping, Budgeting, Safety/ Security & Overall Service. Fundraising for the purchase of equipment or additional programming."
Get involved! Much work is needed in order to organize and manage the park to be a successful community venture. Lend your expertise in proposing rules & regulations, programming for the park and performance area, and generating ideas to build a South Loop community focal point. Come by the PAC meeting to learn more and meet your neighbors.
