Will County Community Development

Join us at Pilcher Park today for the Will County Green Book Recycling event! Get books, sign up for the Will County Dolly Parton Imagination Library, and stop by to say hello to Community Development staff to share your thoughts on https://guidewill.co/

Your input is the foundation of this plan. Here's how to share it.

GUIDE WILL is Will County's update to its Land Resource Management Plan, the long-range blueprint guiding decisions on housing, jobs, farmland, open space, transportation, and infrastructure.

Take the GUIDE WILL Visioning Survey. Tell us what the County must prioritize in the years ahead. Your responses directly shape the guiding principles and policies in the updated plan.

Add your ideas to the interactive comment map. Pin specific locations across the County, highlight places you love, flag areas that need improvement, and identify gaps in transportation or infrastructure.

Both tools are open to all and available at https://guidewill.co/ Learn more, subscribe for updates, and stay involved.

Will County's popular three-day Book Reuse and Recycling Event returns tomorrow to Joliet Park District's Pilcher Park Nature Center!

From Friday to Sunday, 9 A.M. to 4 P.M., stop by to donate unwanted books or find free books to take for your home library! Thousands of books will be on display and shared for free with attendees. Remaining books will either be distributed to local literacy programs or responsibly recycled.

The event is hosted by Will County's Resource Recovery and Energy Division (Will County Green). To learn more visit www.willcountygreen.com

Our office will be closed on Memorial Day, Monday, May 25th.
