Protecting Detweiller's Legacy!

Greg and Phil talk with Bill Ordaz and Tim Herold about the recent controversy surrounding the Detweiller Marina and Playground property, a riverfront area that has been in the news due to a proposed sale of trust-owned land and concerns over public access. They discuss the approximately 27-acre property, its history as public recreation space, the events of the past six months, community concerns about preserving green space and trail access, and the responses from the Peoria Park District and other stakeholders. The conversation also highlights the upcoming honorary renaming event on Tuesday, June 23rd at 12:00 PM at Detweiller Marina, celebrating the legacy and history of the area. The debate centers on balancing future development with preserving public access and honoring the original intent of the land trust.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
