Consent Agenda Item C - Trustee Lissner voiced his concerns regarding the impact on the Industrial Park now that the 2 07-11-95 Suburban O'Hare Commission is backing a third airport site in Peotone. The Peotone site would be bad for the area, businesses, and the taxbase. He cannot support SOC' s position on O'Hare and the third airport site . In response, President Gallitano stressed the importance of the work being done by the Suburban O'Hare Commission. SOC has been extremely instrumental in efforts towards getting a dialogue with the City of Chicago and the airport . To vote against this proposal would be voting against the very things that are there to protect our residents . For once Springfield is willing to hear the pleas of the 500, 000 residents surrounding the airport to at least participate in a meaningful process dealing with the future of O'Hare. No one is saying O'Hare should be shut down or moved to Peotone . The President suggested more education regarding Item C. would be warranted before voting against it .
