Curbside Parking in Downtown to be Removed 
Due to the recent lifting of COVID-19 restrictions by the CDC and the State of Illinois, the temporary curbside pickup signage put in place at the beginning of the pandemic will be removed the week of March 7. 
The Village appreciates the community’s support of our businesses over the past two years. The community's continued shopping, dining, and curbside pick-ups, made all the difference to keeping our business community thriving during such a challenging time.
