A Message from Township President,
Senator Louis S. Viverito

A Safe Harbor During Hard Times

It's surprising how often the wisdom of the founding fathers surfaces. When they set up this country, they set up the system of township government, a system that would look after the interests of the citizens at the local level for those areas that were unincorporated. As towns sprung up across the land, township government filled a void in providing specific services that were either overlooked or were deemed unaffordable by the municipalities.

Today, Stickney Township is in a good position to weather the current economic storm. We have operated under a principle of common sense when it comes to our budgets. We offer medical, dental and social services that answer the needs of our citizens and do so without any monies owed. We provide meals and programs for our seniors in a state-of-the-art facility and deliver services to those seniors who are unable to come to us. Operating in the black has put our Township in an enviable position. While other government bodies shoulder the weight of crushing debt, we continue to deliver services in a responsible and economic manner here in Stickney Township.

As always, our Township Board meets on the second and last Monday of each month and your comments are welcome. For a schedule of meeting times and locations, contact the Township administrative offices at 708/424-9200.
