Residents Speak Out Against Longmeadow Parkway Project
Some Algonquin residents spoke out against the thoroughfare at a Carpentersville Village Board meeting Tuesday.
Residents opposed to the Longmeadow Parkway, a 5.6-mile road that would include a four-lane toll bridge, shared their concerns Tuesday at a Carpentersville Village Board meeting, the Daily Herald reports.
Annelise Menoni told trustees her family moved to Algonquin for the open space and quiet and that the new roadway would disturb that peace, according to the Daily Herald. She was among eight people who spoke up in opposition to the project at the Tuesday meeting.
