A business group that has pledged millions of dollars to build a restaurant near the Fond du Lac Lakeside Park Lighthouse says they look forward to working with three newly elected councilmembers to put the finishing touches on an alternate master plan even though the candidates campaigned in opposition to the plan. Lakeside Forward says since last September financial support for the project has increased from $5.2 million to nearly six million dollars. Envision Greater Fond du Lac president Sadie Parafiniuk says the increase in donations says the donations show that there are people who still want to see the city move forward and do something bold and forward thinking at the Park. The Fond du Lac city council will discuss the park at their meeting Wednesday night.
