Default Children's Museum Case - CANCELLED! ?

From Peggy Figiel,

Dear Supporters,

Save Grant Park has just received word that the hearing for the first lawsuit (Administrative Review) opposing the plan to relocate the Chicago Children's Museum to Grant Park scheduled for tomorrow (March 31), has been canceled by Judge Agran.

Questions: How can a hearing be canceled? Isn't the court obliged to hear the case?

Answers: While the hearing will not take place tomorrow, it cannot really be canceled, only delayed to a later date. The case against this illegal takeover of Chicago's most precious park by private interests can and will be heard.

No confirmed date has been set for the rescheduled hearing. Save Grant Park remains vigilant and will provide updates as we obtain new information.

Chicago will have Grant Park to enjoy only as long as Chicagoans are willing to fight for it. Save Grant Park volunteers have held off plans to build in the park for more than three years already and have no intention of backing down.

Is Grant Park important to you? Then support the opposition with your contribution. You can donate online by visiting Save Grant Park! or mail a check directly to the bank:

5th/3rd Bank

Chicago, IL 60601

Every dollar will help.

Regards,

Peggy Figiel
