What do you think is the best outcome for the Wilmette Harbor?
The Wilmette Harbor Association securing control once again. It has maintained it for 75 years and deserves to still.

MWRD should hold out until a group shares its vision. They should close the harbor if they have to.
I don't care who runs the harbor, but the amenity cannot miss a summer.
