The Campaign for Sensible Growth is an action-oriented coalition of government,
civic and business leaders in northeastern Illinois’ six counties (Cook, DuPage,
Kane, Lake, McHenry, Will) working to promote economic development while preserving
open space, minimizing the need for costly new infrastructure and improving the livability of our communities.
The Campaign, working through its partners, has three primary goals:
Strengthen the economic competitiveness of the Chicago region through smarter use of infrastructure investment and incentives
Revitalize and support existing communities
Promote new development, which is more walkable, transit-friendly and preserves natural resources in newly developing areas
