CAPIT Plans Lake Co. Rally April 4

The Citizens Against the Privatized Illiana Toll Road plan a Lake County rally at the Fairgrounds on April 4, according to their Yahoo message board (free registration required).

Writes CAPIT leader Dave Ahlberg:

We have set up an informational meeting at the Lake County Fairgrouds, 4H Building on Wednesday, April 4, at 6:30.

This will be an opportunity for Lake County to show its strength in opposition to the I65 / I-57 Illiana Toll Road.

We need a LARGE turnout to show that we are not rolling over on the western section. We are opposed to the project, we are opposed to any study done by the state. We need to address this LOUD and CLEAR so that the legislators know there is "massive opposition" to the west end also.

This meeting may be the one and only chance Lake County residents have to show the Lake County opposition to the Illiana Toll Road. The Governor has stated that even the west end could be a Privatized Toll Road.

It's not over people! The whole thing could resurface in the closing days of the session. We need to keep up the heat! I hope to see you there.

It will be interesting to compare the number of license plates with "64" and "45, 94 & 96" prefixes are in the Lake County Fairgrounds parking lot that evening.
