Homer Glen Mayor Christina Neitzke-Troike denied a Homer Township request to use village streets for its annual HomerFest parade and is looking into possibly having the village leave the township as tension between the two entities grows.
The village of Homer Glen has declined Homer Township’s application to conduct its annual Independence Day parade as political tensions between some local leaders were heightened during meetings this month.
“Am I interested in getting the village out of the township? Yes,” Neitzke-Troike said. “I’d like to begin the process to investigate if it’s worth it or not.” Neitzke-Troike cited the city of Evanston as an example. Evanston moved to dissolve a township in 2012 after City Council members backed an advisory referendum asking voters whether they supported dissolving township government.“There’s going to be a fight and a half,” he said. “Cause I’m not going to let the people in the unincorporated area down.”
