A file of background material for the meetings is available at the park district Administrative Office, 1930 Prairie St. and at the Glenview Public Library, 1930 Glenview Rd. The Glenview Park District Guide, a catalog of upcoming seasonal program offerings, is mailed to all residents of the district four times a year in February, May, July, and November and other information of public interest is covered in special flyers from time to time. The Glenview Village Newsletter at times announces special and/or joint efforts. The park board conducts public hearings from time to time to discuss specific topics such as playground renovations. There are also Bulletin Boards at each park district facility to alert the public to upcoming events.
