 Green Bay Trail Open House October 25
If you are a Green Bay Trail user and have thoughts on how you’d like to see it improved in the future, stop by Village Hall at 510 Green Bay Road on Tuesday, October 25 from 6 – 8 PM to share your input. This session will be led by the Lakota Group, which is working with the Village and the Park District to create a plan for the community resource that is the trail.

Leaf Collection Underway
The last day to place leaves on your parkway for collection is by 7 AM on Monday, November 28. Leaves placed on the parkway after 7 AM on November 28 may not be collected.
Please do not rake leaves into the street, as leaves clog storm sewers, leading to flooded streets and yards. If you hire a service to handle your leaves, please inform them of this request. Also, please do not park in front of leaf piles, when possible, to enable the Village to easily access them.
View the leaf collection schedule.

Parking is available on Mary Street and Woodlawn Avenue.
