A Message from Township President, Senator Louis S. Viverito

New Faces In The New Year

Last fall, Stickney Township held a regular community meeting for citizens to bring their concerns forth and present them directly to Township officials. Many resiStickneyhighwayStickneygeneralStickneyadminStickneynewsStickneyDirectoryStickneyyouthStickneyseniordents of unincorporated Stickney Township expressed their concern over various neighborhood nuisances. Housing and zoning issues, along with safety and law enforcement issues were raised.

In response to these concerns, Stickney Township has created a new position called Community Safety Officer. The purpose of this position is to provide Township coordination between the residents of unincorporated areas and various relevant State and County administrative and law enforcement entities.
We were fortunate in filling this position with someone who knows the territory.  John Zitek, the recently retired Stickney Township Police Chief, agreed to come aboard.  John brings a great deal of experience to the position, both as a local law enforcement professional and as a resident of the area.

John isn't the only new face on the Stickney Township staff. We're pleased to welcome Eloise Rosales, M.S.W. as a new full-time bilingual/bicultural clinical therapist in the Mental Health District. Eloise is trained as a clinical professional and brings a wealth of experience to the Stickney Township community.
