New Trustees Named to Village Board

The newest board member is Mike Martinez, who has 19 years of local service. There's a welcome event open to the public in September.

The Village of Woodridge has welcomed new trustees to the Village Board, according to a news release.

It includes Tim Goodwin, who was a plan commissioner for seven years; Mary Anne Blair, who served on the Board of Police Commissioners for 16 years; and Mike Martinez, who served on the Zoning Board of Appeals for 12 years and Board of Police Commissioners for seven years.

Martinez replaces Trustee Dave Pittinger, who stepped down from the Village Board on Aug. 8 because he's moving out of the state.
