BENTON, IL – State Representative Dave Severin (R-Benton) joined WSIL-TV for a special Community in Focus to provide local residents with an update on the progress of the restoration and renovation of the shuttered Rend Lake Resort. Severin says the state of Illinois is investing heavily and building a world-class facility that will serve Illinoisans and out of state tourists alike.
“I took a tour just a couple of weeks ago, and I saw the quality of what’s being done,” Severin said. “This spring, concessionaires will have the opportunity to bid on a request for proposal (RFP). That will happen this spring, and we hope to have it fully back open in the fall.”
