Mr. Navecky, This proposal should be killed now! A 15000 acre railyard proposed for Sumner Township would decimate the township and destroy the town of Grant Park, IL. How does this benefit anyone except for the GLBT?? Also, I intend to file a property tax protest with the Kankakee County Assessor’s Office. I am simply going to say as long the GLB project is on the “Drawing Board” the fair market value and marketability of my home and property has been tremendously reduced. And until the GLB project is formally rejected, my goal is to pay $0.00 in property taxes. I am sickened by the fact that many thousands of good people in the Tri-State area are dealing with “Worse Case” the GLB RR becoming a reality. And “Best Case”, this black ominous cloud potentially hanging over our heads for years. And effecting us Right Now, life decisions, health and emotions. And all Frank Patton can say is he is “Saddened by the growing opposition to his Legacy. Sincerely, Julie Kokos Sumner Township Grant Park Kankakee County 708-426-4180"
