Long-term improvements to Waukegan Municipal Beach and the Lake Michigan shoreline around it took a step forward earlier this month with the awarding of $150,000 in state funds toward a Waukegan Lakefront Active Implementation Plan.
According to a grant application filed with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources earlier this year, the money will be used to hire a consulting firm that will “identify key projects and activities that can be undertaken in the near term — two to four years — to improve and activate Waukegan’s lakefront area, along with a framework for longer-term activities.”
