The forum will focus on the science behind how and why the shoreline is changing, as well as some government programs and projects in the area that address shoreline change. Topics discussed will include: how shoreline change is impacting our community, what it is costing the community, and what steps Highland Park is taking to address the change.
The forum is being hosted by Illinois State Senator Julie Morrison and the Illinois Department of Natural Resources Coastal Management Program. It is free and open to the public.
