La Grange And Brookfield Want To Fix Border Road
Brookfield asks La Grange to do its half. The street is rated in fair condition.

LA GRANGE, IL — Eberly Avenue is the boundary between La Grange and Brookfield, with each town responsible for its half.
Brookfield recently notified La Grange that it wanted to resurface its side of the street, which is also known as East Avenue, from the railroad tracks to Ogden Avenue. It asked whether La Grange was interested in doing its half.
La Grange's public works department found the street to be in fair condition, according to a village memo.
