MOT 25-262 A Motion to Select and Finalize the Preferred Concept for the Oak Park Municipal Campus and Direct Staff to Return to the Village Board with a Final Option to Advance to Schematic Design Overview: Johnson Lasky and Kindelin Architects, along with the schematic design team, will share two conceptual design options while highlighting the financial and operational advantages and disadvantages of each option. The design options presented in February 2025, guided by best practices and priorities established during the Design Charrette, had to be further refined due to rising construction costs and fiscal constraints. As part of the presentation, the design team will discuss the reduced cost options, vetted by the Police Department and Village Hall staff, that achieve meaningful cost savings while preserving the core vision and essential programmatic functions of the original designs.
