On Tuesday, January 7, 2003, Joe Mikan, Will County Executive, presented the Village of Homer Glen with its' first EMA vehicle.  "We (the Village and Will County) have had a great working relationship, and this is just another example of it," Joe Mikan told the Village Board at a Special Board of Trustees Meeting.  "One of our vehicles became surplus and we offered it to Homer Glen."  EMA stands for Emergency Management Agency, of which Mike Wolfe was the first Coordinator.  Mike and Harold Damron of Will County worked very closely to get Homer Glen's EMA up and running smoothly.  The Village is very grateful for Will County's generosity.
