Audio and summary 
If this bill passes, say goodbye to local control over all Illinois parks and expect to see open drug and alcohol use, needles, no sanitation and fire hazards, but no ordinary park users.

Another high end company with well compensated employees is gone. If you only listen to Lightfoot and Pritzker, you’d think IL economy is booming, not the reality of seventh worst in the country with the fifth highest fed/state corporate taxes. As well as the combined property/sales taxes paid by company’s employees.
