Comprehensive Plan Information

The Village is currently beginning a review of its Comprehensive Plan document, which was last modified updated in 1999. The Comprehensive Plan is a legal document which serves as a guide for land planning and land use decisions for property within and in close proximity to the Village. Input from residents should be and has been an essential part of the process in developing the Village's Comprehensive Plan. The updated Comprehensive Plan will incorporate the Commercial Areas Master Plan adopted by the Village Council in April, 2007.

RADON AWARENESS
Cook County and the State of Illinois are conducting a Radon Awareness Program by distributing free radon detector kits. Radon is a colorless, odorless gas that is found naturally in soil. It can come into homes through cracks and openings in the foundation. Radon decays quickly, giving off small radioactive particles that when inhaled can damage the cells in your lungs. The only way to know if you have radon in your home is by testing. The free test kit can be obtained from Cook County Environmental Control by calling 708-865-6177.
