Bill > HB4173

This bill appropriates $10 million from the Build Illinois Bond Fund to the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) to provide a grant to the Chicago Park District specifically for reconstructing the field house at Ogden Park in Chicago. The funding is intended to support the renovation of the park's field house, which will likely improve community recreational facilities. The appropriation is flexible, allowing the department to use up to the full $10 million as needed for the project. The bill will become effective on July 1, 2026, which gives the city and park district time to plan and prepare for the renovation project. The appropriation comes from the Build Illinois Bond Fund, which is a state-level funding mechanism typically used for infrastructure and community development projects.
