The .prcssion of approval by the county immissioners was given following a scussion of the merits of the plan at luncheon at the Hotel? La Salle. Limit Forest Preserve Area The commissioners stated that the jate legislature in its most recent session tnited the Cook County: Jforest Pre- :rve to 35,000 acres, 25*000 of which is ready acquired, leaving about 10,000 ill to be added to the great "Chicago ayground." _........ ...^._.^.h-A_[^!^^^.^...'. The commissioners agreed with the rcle members that the Skokie tract wuld be acquired as soon-^as possible i view of the fact that fan4values_ are apidly increjasiing. . # Following the conference ;with .the ammissioners, the circle was addressed Dwight Perkins, chairman of the hicago Regional Plan commission, ho stated that the original idea of de- eloping a definite zoning plan for the irritory comprised within a radius of fty miles from Chicago, had grown, t the behest of cities as far distant as ortions that will necessitatet a material xtension of the original area. The mte^n^roceedir^to-devdoir weeks 1^^; regional zoning scheme, he stated, rouTcTT>e a four-fold survey of the ter itory, namely: geographical,â€"political^ acial and physical surveys. He declared that such a plan was onducive to the elevation of the plane f lite in Chicago and vicinity. It will equire many years to work out, but in le end will give the entire Chicago rea as effective a zoning plan as ould be arranged for individual com- lunities. Want New Trier Zoned In connection with ~The~~discussion on oning, members of the circle expressed be opinion that prompt action should e taken to provide a feasible zoning ton for New Trier township. Paul A. Joffman, who represented the Wilmette illage board, stated that it was im- erative that territories contiguous to he incorporated portions of the town- hip should be regulated so that the vil- iges might be'protected against the in- ux of undesirable features on the "no. lan's land" sections. Seek Local Cooperation The secretary of the circle was, in- truded to direct letters to the various illage boards and to civic organiza- ions requesting co-operation in the plan o zone the township. Wednesday's meeting was one of sev- ral discussions by the circle of which ohn S. Miller, Jr., is president, and vhich organized a few months ago for he purpose of promoting the best in- erest of the township as a unit. Mem- lership in the circle comprises the mem- |ers of the village boards and all tax- ing* bodies in New Trier. WlkMETTE, ILLINOIS, FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 1933 TWENTY PACES He SaysJt Warn!
