Consultation has concluded

Update

The Fox River Corridor Plan was adopted by the McHenry County Board on February 15, 2022, and the McHenry City Council on April 5, 2022. The final plan is available for download here and on the right hand side of your screen under Related Documents. Please reach out if you are interested in learning how you can help implement the plan!


With support from CMAP’s Local Technical Assistance (LTA) program, McHenry County Department of Planning and Development and City of McHenry Department of Economic Development are leading a collaborative effort to develop a Fox River Corridor Plan that will focus on:

  • Commerce within central business districts adjacent to the river's edge
  • Environment and natural resources (including water resources)
  • Multi-modal connections to/on the river
  • Public access and recreational use to/on the river and adjacent to business districts


We want to hear from you!

Public input is crucial to developing a plan that is driven by the needs and vision of the community. Opportunities to tell us what you think will be added to the site as we move through the planning process. Check the tabs below for the most recent engagement opportunities. You are also welcome to reach out to members of the project team listed under the 'Who's Listening' widget on the right.
