La Grange Public Works works. Find out how.

Citizens' Council of La Grange invites the public to learn about the operations and maintenance of the village.

January 22, 2018 – How does Public Works work? La Grange Director of Public Works, Ryan Gillingham, will explain during an informational session that will take place at CCLG’s monthly meeting on Wednesday, February 21, 7:30 PM, at the Village Hall.

During this event, Ryan will offer 60-minutes of insights on everything from La Grange's lighting to its sewer systems–and also answer questions about flooding and snow removal. Join us to hear about the ongoing legal battle with the quarry, as well as other infrastructure and building projects. Part educational event, part CCLG standard monthly meeting, the goal is total civic-minded enjoyment for all.

Ryan Gillingham has been the La Grange Director of Public Works for nearly 10 years. He holds a Master’s in Public Policy & Administration from the Northwestern University.
