DeKALB – Park district officials have begun planning when they will next talk about buying Kiwanis Park and replacing the Hopkins Park pool.

Executive Director Cindy Capek said the board would begin discussing financial alternatives to acquiring Kiwanis Park from DeKalb School District 428. The school district originally intended to trade that land to ShoDeen Construction, but is now working with the park district to give them Kiwanis Park.

Capek said those discussions would occur in the board’s executive session, which is closed to the public because they would be discussing sensitive financial information.
