Village of
Palos Park Welcomes You!
The Village of Palos Park is a charming,
bedroom community nestled in the midst of
dense wooded land. A
wonderful place to live and raise a family
in a natural environment. We love this
town for its profound natural features,
where hills, creeks, and ravines
abound. Large, aged oak trees line our
streets and properties. Our one-acre
zoning in residential areas has been vital
in maintaining these natural assets, and the
community members actively work to maintain
our “pastoral setting, rural splendor.”
Mayor's Message
Spring is finally
here, and with it comes an exciting time in our
Village. Many great events are planned for the
residents.

~PALOS PARK 9/11
MEMORIAL FUND~
The National September 11 Memorial and Museum in New
York is a national tribute of remembrance to honor
the men, women, and children killed in the terrorist
attacks. The Village of Palos Park is hoping to
raise $1,000 so that “The Residents of Palos Park,
IL” will be represented through its support with a
granite paver that will create an elegant walkway
leading to the 9/11 Memorial in NY. Thank you to
everyone that has donated thus far. We are pleased
to announce that we have already raised $300.00. If
you would like to donate any amount to this cause,
the Village will accept cash or a check made payable
to the Village of Palos Park. |
