Oak Park Municipal Campus Open House
While there will be no formal presentation during the Open House, attendees will have the chance to meet and ask questions of members of the Oak Park Municipal Campus (OPMC) Schematic Design team; review conceptual site design diagrams and details for the Oak Park Municipal Campus and; provide feedback and share thoughts directly with those designing the Oak Park Municipal Campus.
The project goals include:
- Maintaining historical aspects of the existing Village Hall facility that express the spirit of open government and convey the building's historic significance.
- Meeting established sustainability goals for both renovation and new construction as outlined in the Climate Ready Oak Park plan.
- Retaining architectural design elements and standards not only exercised at the existing Village Hall facility but throughout the community.
- Meeting current building codes including addressing life safety issues.
- Creating accessible and inclusive spaces that exceed current accessibility codes including Illinois Accessibility Code and Americans with Disabilities Act.
- Addressing safety and security issues for the facilities and site.
- Meeting modern standards for policing.
- Updating the site plan to include traffic flow and parking solutions for visitors and employees while maintaining green space for community engagement.
- Making the existing facility functional as a modern Village Hall including addressing space, noise, and lack of support facilities (i.e. Gender-Neutral Bathrooms, Employee Wellness/Interfaith spaces, and a Lactation Room).
