60th Anniversary Fun Fact

In past years, the front of Village Hall had one very large holiday tree to decorate for the annual tree trimming event. After the large tree left Village Hall, it was replaced by a row of trees that are decorated each year by area community groups and lit up at the annual Tree Lighting Ceremony.

Village Surplus Utility Vehicle Finds a New Home

A surplus Public Works Water Division utility vehicle has found new life in a small southern Illinois volunteer fire department.

The Village of Hanover Park recently replaced a 2004 utility truck with an updated and modern vehicle that better fits the needs of our community. Like all surplus vehicles, the old unit was slated for sale.

The Village of Omaha (IL) Fire Department was in dire need of a utility vehicle that could be used to provide first responder medical services to their small community. Omaha is located in Gallatin County with a population of less than 300. Hanover Park’s Fire Chief, Craig A. Haigh learned of the department’s need and wondered if the old Public Work’s truck could meet their requirements. After numerous emails, exchange of photos, and a six plus hour drive to Hanover Park by Omaha’s Fire Department Command Staff to look at the vehicle, the department determined that the truck was exactly what they needed.
