• Plainfield police issue 82 citations, make 4 arrests as part of traffic enforcement campaign (shawlocal.com) — Plainfield drivers may notice stricter enforcement after police issued 82 citations and made four traffic arrests during a year-long safety campaign aimed at reducing crashes. Backed by federal highway safety funds, officers focused on seat belts, speeding, cell phone use and other violations on Illinois roads to send a clear message that unsafe driving won't be tolerated locally.
• Proposed Ridge Road warehouse development will be back before the Plainfield Village Board on Monday (shawlocal.com) — Plainfield residents will see the controversial 170-acre Ridge Road warehouse proposal return to the Village Board on Monday, with developers seeking annexation and touting over $2 million in new annual property tax revenue. Neighbors in Grande Park remain worried about truck traffic and noise, while local schools, fire, library and park officials back the project, citing long-term economic benefits.
