Background
A remote meeting of the Oak Park Village Board of Trustees is authorized pursuant
to Section 6 of Governor J.B. Pritzker's Executive Order 2020-07.

In order to hold a remote participation meeting that is live streamed on the Village website, and archived on the same platform as all other meetings of the Village Board, a meeting is scheduled to test the process.

The process for public comments is also being tested. For remote participation meetings, public statements for an agenda item of up to three minutes will be read into the record. Individuals are asked to email statements to publiccomment@oak-park.us, to be received no later than 30 minutes prior to the start of the meeting. The Village Clerk will receive those emails. Alternatively, if email is not an option, individuals can drop written comments off at the Oak Park Payment Drop box located across from the entrance to Village Hall, 123 Madison Street, to be received no later than 5 p.m. the day of the meeting.
