Greetings neighbor,

We are springing into 2023 and with a new year, I hope we Stay Connected via the city’s new website at www.berwyn-il.gov, where Berwyn residents can pay their water bill online (please have your account/balance information), view/share opportunities to work in our City and view the City’s Community Calendar for upcoming municipal and community meetings.

 There have been many updates to resident services and information available for New Berwyn Residents. The Beautification efforts continue to improve and I would like to thank you in advance for doing your part to Keep Berwyn Beautiful! Remember you can now Request a Container for residential garbage service online or by telephone, at 800-964-8988.

 Recently, I had the honor of celebrating 11 women-owned businesses and their successful completion of the inaugural season of the Berwyn Shops: A Homegrown Project. These talented businesswomen are a community pride and I wish each of the vendors great success in their future endeavors.

 Our infrastructure projects also continue to advance, with our Depot District Project now in its Third Phase: Streetscape Beautification. I am happy to announce a recent grant from the Public Works Department will enable our city to inventory water main lead pipes per the federal mandate (Public Act 102-0613) and ensure we can continue to provide clean and safe water to our community. Check out the project survey link active in March for more information.

 Cook County property owners will have an extra month to pay their First Installment property taxes this year, April 3, 2023, per the Cook County Treasurer’s Office. Property tax bills are already available online. To make a payment or download a copy of your tax bill, please visit www.cookcountytreasurer.com. Berwyn Township Assessor Jacqueline Pereda's office will be available for questions at 708-788-6600 or by email at jacquelinepereda@berwynassessor.org.

 I would like to close out this message by thanking Cassidy Tire Shop located at 7000 Ogden Ave. for the Catalytic Theft Deterrent Service available free of charge for Berwyn residents (valid driver’s license with Berwyn address required).
