Goals & Achievements

The Public Services & Safety Committee have continued to address transportation issues within the Village including "Issues to Resolve" that pertain to traffic control.  The Committee recently reviewed traffic calming methods and procedures for Village review.  The Committee also researched and made recommendations to the Village Board which resulted in new legislation concerning Fireworks and Pyrotechnic Displays and Animal Nuisance.  The Committee also analyzed the Redlight Camera proposal, leaf burning, the removal of Oakwood berm and lightening notification on public property.  Both Fire Districts and the Sheriff's Department serve as advisors to the Committee.
