Abstract/Contents: | Introduces GO TO 2040, explaining that the plan "provides a framework for all aspects of development in the region [of Chicago] with a goal being to maintain the same quality of life that is now enjoyed by residents while still allowing for an increase in population of some 2 million people." Discusses the plan's purpose, and provides sources for further information. Relates the plan to golf courses, noting that "[they] can be part of storm water detention [retention], permeable landscaping, urban forestry, and water and energy savings." Overviews the Water 2050 Northeastern Illinois Regional Water Demand/Supply Plan, and lists its goals. Mentions the potential implications of the 2050 program, and details the conservation measures required. States that "the planners clearly see golf courses as a potential opportunity," and briefly addresses research conducted for the 2050 program. |
