The Jacksonville Developmental Center isn't the only facility on the chopping block.  Quinn also plans to close three more facilities, including the Tinley Park Mental Health Center .  A total of 600 people will be moved into community care settings over the next two and a half years.  Quinn says the Jacksonville and Tinley Park closures will save just over 20-million dollars.  The move will put more than 550 people out of work.
