This is a playground called "Dragon Fly Landing" -- it is adjacent to a storm water detention area and within steps of Rt 53, one of the busiest highways in DuPage County. There is no barrier to prevent trucks travelling at more than 50 MPH from careening into the playground. What could Lisle officials have possibly been thinking when they endorsed construction of "Dragon Fly Landing"?
Information for Village of Lisle residents about what their public officials are doing (or not doing) to fulfill their responsibilities to constituents. Lisle is a community of hard working people who deserve much better than they're getting from their Mayor and Village Trustees, especially in these difficult economic times: better transparency, better focus on public safety, and much better attention to spending priorities.

Gateway To Downtown Lisle
Lisle public officials spent $9 million of taxpayer money on a "downtown master plan".
This is a picture of the gateway to downtown Lisle - is it any wonder that Lisle has failed to attract shoppers and continues to lose businesses?

Lisle Deserves Better
Lisle residents have a right to expect their elected officials to be:
Unfortunately, the current Mayor and Village Trustees fall short of the mark.
- honest and transparent in their deliberations and decisions
- realistic in their plans for the Village
- fiscally responsible and efficient
- focused on public safety as their highest priority
- uncompromising models of the highest ethical standards
Unfortunately, the current Mayor and Village Trustees fall short of the mark.
