The site navigation utilizes arrow, enter, escape, and space bar key commands. Left and right arrows move across top level links and expand / close menus in sub levels. Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.
The Lake County Forest Preserve District is seeking one or more Vendors to perform tree protection fencing removals in 2025, i.e. maintenance to previous planting efforts. Potential vendors may submit quotes for one or more project locations. Owner intends to award each project individually, to the lowest responsible vendor; however, depending on quote amounts, the District may not award all projects, due to budgetary constraints.
The District regularly plants native trees and shrubs to restore and enhance degraded areas. When trees and shrubs are installed, light-duty fencing materials are installed around these plantings to protect the newly planted material from damage and/or herbivory. After time, plants become well-established and the protective fencing is no longer required. The work of this project includes all labor, equipment and materials necessary to remove the tree protection fencing from the planted material and off-site disposal.
