Planners, who watched nervously as Yorkville's population doubled to 7,000 between 1990 and 2000, are predicting the influx of another 19,000 residents over the next 10 years.
"We could be at a population of 35,000 by 2020," says City Administrator Anton Graff.
That kind of rapid growth is fueling a bitter local debate over the proposed Prairie Parkway, a 33-mile, four-lane road that would run north and south connecting Interstates 80 and 88, bisecting the historically agricultural county in the process.

Graff was a student of Johann Ulrich Schellenburg [1709—1795] in Winterthur and continued his training with Johann Jakob Haid in Augsburg between 1756 and 1765.
He worked for the court painter Leonhard Schneider [1716—1762] in Ansbach from 1757 to 1759, producing large numbers of copies of a portrait of Frederick the Great (probably by Antoine Pesne).
He had thus alienated the very class from whom a painter could hope for support in the absence of the State patronage he so earnestly desired.
