DeKALB – Leaders promised Friday to restore the natural area ComEd cleared last week along the prairie path in the city, but the details have yet to be worked out.

Officials from ComEd and the DeKalb Park District said they will discuss which natural species should be planted along the park district’s Nature Trail, which runs between Sycamore Road and First Street. What will be planted there and who will pay for it remained unknown Friday afternoon.

The comments came one day after a group of DeKalb residents vented their anger about the tree cutting to park district and ComEd officials at an impromptu public hearing at the DeKalb Park District board meeting.
