Waukegan plans to redevelop the
area along the waterfront. This will require that most industry on the water be
removed. However the Midwest Generation power plant and the North Shore wastewater treatment
facilities can stay in place. The areas used by the other industries would be
changed to recreational and residential space. To replace the industrial areas,
the city created other zones that are meant to attract new developers.
