VISION STATEMENT, January, 2010
The Village of Lincolnwood effectively blends the advantages of urban proximity with quality suburban amenities. Families are drawn to Lincolnwood in part because of our superior schools and convenient transportation links. We are a stable community with long-term residents who stay here due to consistently strong property values and the vitality of our neighborhoods. The Village government, through effective strategic planning and timely responsiveness to changing conditions, continues to offer excellent public services in a fiscally responsible manner.
As the Village proceeds into its next century we will continue to incorporate new technology into Village operations and increase efficiencies in providing essential public services. We will strive to be proficient stewards of the environment and set a positive example of decreasing our carbon footprint. We will focus on preserving a balanced use of land that leads to a diversified tax base. We will continue to promote and support the Arts to enhance the quality of life of all our residents and visitors.
The Village of Lincolnwood will maintain its consistently high standards of service and continually seek to enhance its standing as a haven for residents and businesses.
