Voters to Decide on Sale of Hidden Cove Sports Complex

The voters will decide whether the Bourbonnais Township Park District should buy the Hidden Cove Sports Complex.

A special meeting of the park district Monday revealed a referendum is in order for the November ballot.  The proposed sale of the complex for $2.4 million in bonds has stirred emotions of those FOR and AGAINST taxpayers purchasing the facility.

The consumer watchdog group, OUTRAGE, forced a vote by circulating petitions to give voters a say on the proposed sale.

The petitions showed there’s more than enough valid signatures to place the matter on the ballot.
