Political Signs Reminder
During the political campaign season, the Village wants to remind residents about regulations for placing political campaign signs on your property. Permits are not required for temporary signs and residents can place any number of political signs on their property as long as the aggregate gross surface area does not exceed 20 square feet.

Signs must be:
- on private property;
- at least 5 feet from the house side of the sidewalk;
- at least 10 feet from the house side of a carriage walk; and
- at least 15 feet from the street edge or back of curb if no sidewalk.
Signs must not be:
- placed in the public right-of-way;
- attached to trees, traffic or light poles, utility poles or fire hydrants; or
- higher than 10 feet above curb level.
Get more information here. If you have any questions regarding the Village's regulations, please contact the Community Development Department at 847.719.7484.

Leaf Collection Running October 22 - November 16
The Village’s annual leaf collection program provides residents with an alternate way to dispose of their leaves. Residents may rake leaves to the curb or carriage walk line the night before their scheduled pickup so Village crews may use vacuum hose machines to collect the foliage. View the Village's informational video to see the machines in use.

Beginning the week of October 22 and continuing through November 16, Public Works crews will make one pass by each house in the Village each week during the program. Please do not put out leaves more than one day prior to your scheduled pickup day. Leaves should be raked neatly, as close to the curb as possible, so long as they are not placed in the street or on carriage walks or sidewalks, which causes safety hazards to pedestrians and drivers. Leaves should be placed in piles no greater than 5' in width. If you have landscapers, please direct them to abide by the Village's leaf collection guidelines.
