LETTER FROM THE MAYOR

My promise to you is straightforward: to ensure that every resident of Orland Park feels heard, valued, and represented. I promise to strive to do the greatest amount of good, for the greatest number of people. All I ask is that you work with me to let me know what your priorities are and what matters most to you. Together, the Village Board and I will strive to create an environment where meaningful dialogue outweighs division and where collaboration leads to progress. I am particularly excited about the vibrant events and activities planned for this summer. On Memorial Day, our community came together to honor the sacrifices of those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms, a moment that reaffirmed the deep sense of unity we share. As Independence Day approaches, we eagerly anticipate the annual Veterans Liberty Run & Walk on July 3, followed by a spectacular concert and fireworks display at Centennial Park West on July 4. The Taste of Orland Park, now back at the Village Green for the comfort and enjoyment of all, will return the weekend

of August 1–3, bringing us all closer through food, music, and celebration. Maintaining open lines of communication is among my highest priorities. If you have questions, ideas, or concerns, I encourage you to reach out to me directly at jdodge@ orlandpark.org or (708) 403 6100. Your voice matters, and together, we can continue to make Orland Park not only a wonderful place to call home but also a thriving community for all generations. I am honored to serve you and look forward to working hand in hand with the Village Board and each of you to ensure our shared vision for Orland Park is realized.

Dear Orland Park seniors,

It is my privilege to address you as your mayor and to extend my heartfelt thanks to so many of you who have reached out with kind words and warm welcomes. Returning to Village Hall has been a deeply meaningful experience, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to reconnect with a community I have cherished since my earliest days in public service. Many of you may recall that my journey serving Orland Park began back in 1989, when I was elected Village Clerk at the age of 26, a role I held with pride before continuing as Trustee from 1996 until 2021. As I step into my new role as mayor, I carry with me decades of experience cultivated through a career in advanced analytics consulting, alongside my time in public service. This unique blend of expertise has shaped my perspective and informed my commitment to fostering civility, respect, and efficiency in our local governance.

Warm regards,

Jim Dodge | Mayor

LETTER FROM THE CHIEF OF POLICE

As always, we ask that if you SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING and give us a call at (708) 349 4111 for non-emergencies or 9-1-1 in the event of an emergency.

Please take the time to follow the Orland Park Police Department on Facebook, X or Instagram to stay up-to-date on important safety information, programs and events. Thank you for your support of the men and women of the Orland Park Police Department as we continue to do our absolute best to provide optimum safety and security to the Orland Park community.

I want to personally thank the families and friends who took

the time to attend our community outreach events this past year. As we continue our outreach programs throughout the summer, we invite you to stay active and participate. Our department events are not only excellent ways to stay in touch with safety in Orland Park, but also foster and grow relationships with our officers. It’s important to the department to host events like these in the community. Keeping Orland Park informed helps keep us all safer. I invite you to attend our “Cookout with Cops” events and to keep an eye out for more events promoted throughout the summer.

Dear Orland Park Seniors,

The safety of residents and guests in Orland Park is the first and foremost priority for the Orland Park Police Department. We are proud of the fact that the Village of Orland Park has seen Index Crimes continue to drop below our 25-year average and crime in Orland Park has continued to decrease. With that being said, we must remain actively aware of those who seek to commit crimes in the Orland Park area. We ask that you, as residents of the community, do your part to let us know if you see anything that may seem odd or gives you concern.

Eric Rossi | Chief of Police

2025 Cookout With Cops
