Park Ridge Considering County Services Idea
The Chicago Tribune reports that Park Ridge and other nearby municipalities are looking into taking over some Cook County services.
Cook County is looking into outsourcing some services for unincorporated areas to neighboring communities, including Park Ridge, Des Plaines, Niles and Glenview, the Chicago Tribune reports.
Representatives from the towns are meeting this week with the county to hear the county's plans, which include providing services for things such as police coverage, home inspections and zoning for unincorporated Cook County. They will discuss the cost of the joint venture, as well as other issues.
