The Ken Carpenter Park, which is owned by the Village of Lake in the Hills, is a public park located at the southwest corner of Randall and Miller Road.

The Federal Highway Administration will consider comments received during this public hearing before making any final Section 4(f) impact determinations. Details describing the impacts of the Randall Road improvements on the Ken Carpenter Park will be available at the public hearing.

The hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, January 24, 2012 from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm at the H.D. Jacobs High School, Cafeteria located at 2601 Bunker Hill Drive in Algonquin, Illinois.
