 Solar Policy Statement and Resources

As a proponent for the advancement of environmental protection initiatives, the Metropolitan Mayors Caucus' Environment Committee Established the Greenest Region Compact 2 (GRC2) and seeks communities throughout the Chicagoland region to pledge support of the Compact.  The goals of the Compact promote sustainability and provide support of environmental stewardship.  The Village adopted a Resolution on February 21, 2019 in support of the goals of the Greenest Region Compact 2.
