David Williams, President
Cary Park District
Board of Commissioners
Dear Cary Park District Residents,
On April 17, 2007, voters will see the following Cary Park
District referendum question on the election ballot:
Shall the Cary Park District sell the following real estate:
Up to 80 acres of the westernmost portion of Hoffman Park
or any subpart thereof, lying within Township 43 North,
Section 15, Range 8 East, and bounded to the east by the
corporate boundary line of the Village of Lake in the Hills and
to the west by Illinois State Route 31?
Why did the Cary Park District Board place this question on the ballot? It comes from the community input we have received over
the past two years and the expressed interest in additional recreation facilities currently unavailable.
In 2006, the Cary Park District approved its Comprehensive Master Plan. This Plan is intended to be a tool to help guide the Park
District in its decision making over the next 10 years. The results of the research indicated that the community wants the Park
District to provide more indoor recreation facilities, but were reluctant to increase taxes to do so. However, the results also
indicated that the community would consider selling existing land and/or resources to fund the development of recreation
facilities.
After much discussion, the Park District Board of Commissioners took the steps needed to allow the community to make the
decision regarding the sale of Park District property. To enable the residents to vote on this issue the Park District Board of
Commissioners declared up to 80-acres of the westernmost portion at Hoffman Park as surplus land and no longer needed for park
purposes. This allowed for the referendum question to be presented to the community, and for the community to determine if it
wants to sell the property. The Park District intends to use the funds from the sale proceeds to develop the recreation facilities
that the community has stated are important.
To review the Frequently Asked Questions brochure about the referendum question, or to review the Cary Park District’s
Comprehensive Master Plan, please visit the Park District website at www.carypark.com.
Speaking about the Park District website, about the time that you receive this brochure, the Park District will have launched its
newly updated website at www.carypark.com. This interactive website will allow you to browse seasonal brochures, download
forms, view an interactive map of parks and facilities, view a calendar of events, sign up for an electronic newsletter, and much
more. Please visit the site often, and let us know what you think.
This summer we are pleased to continue to offer the popular Summer Concert Series and announce the offering of a brand new
Children’s Entertainment Series. Both bring talented musicians and entertainers to the Rotary Bandshell at Lions Park. I encourage
you to take advantage of the time outdoors in your community parks, relaxing with family, friends and neighbors while listening
and watching some of the area’s most popular entertainment.
This is my last letter as President of the Cary Park District Board of Commissioners and as Park District Commissioner. The time
that I have spent as commissioner has been very rewarding and it has been my pleasure to work with the truly dedicated park
district staff and citizen volunteers. I hope you will continue to take advantage of your parks, recreation programs, facilities, and
all of the services of the Cary Park District.
David Williams, President

consisted of a dozen small towns clustered around a city still trying to
recover from its Great Fire. We’ve grown right along with area communities, and
we’re prouder than ever to help out in the places we’ve helped to build.
We are proud to support the Cary Park District!
