The Village first adopted A Plan for Nature in Glenview in 2008, a two-volume report inventorying and detailing the ecological condition and potential of 99 open space areas of one acre or larger in the Village of Glenview.

In 2022, the Village engaged with a consultant to update its Plan for Nature, including a re-evaluation of all the sites included in the original plan in addition to new sites throughout town. The updated Plan identified more than 20 additional sites with potential for improved habitat.
