After about 15 years, Long Lake shoreline project to be completed lcfpd lakecountyil foxlakeil
About 1,200 feet of the Long Lake shoreline in Ingleside will be stabilized and an erosion-damaged canoe launch at the Grant Woods Forest Preserve replaced, bringing to an end a project started about 15 years ago.
"It's something that should have been done over the last 20 years," said Commissioner J. Kevin Hunter of Ingleside, whose district includes Long Lake, a part of Grant Woods Forest Preserve.Susan Pribyl, a volunteer with the Manitou Creek Watershed Alliance and a member of the Long Lake Improvement and Sanitation Association, has been among those raising the matter at forest preserve committee meetings over the past five years.
That area is well used by families from Ingleside and the Round Lake communities as well as other areas who fish or hang out at the spot overlooking the lake, Pribyl said. "The focus of the project is to stabilize the shoreline itself," said Pati Vitt, director of natural resources."There are multiple places along the shoreline that have eroded, including some of the bluff areas."
