New Board Meeting Portal Coming Soon!
Starting in February 2025, the Downers Grove Park District will introduce a new system for accessing Board Meeting dates, minutes, agendas, recordings, and documents. This upgrade is designed to enhance efficiency and transparency, providing the community with an intuitive platform to locate board-related information. We appreciate your patience as we transition board documents from 2023-2024 into the new system. For assistance with locating past documents, please contact Adine Wrzesinski, Executive Assistant and FOIA Officer, at awrzesinski@dgparks.org.
- All Meetings of the Park District are open to the public. Meetings are generally held the first and third Thursday of each month, beginning at 7:00 PM, at the Recreation Center Multi-Purpose Room. Meeting dates and times do change, so please call the Park District office at 630.963.1304 to verify the meeting schedule or view the schedule below.
- Regular Meetings are formal sessions of the Downers Grove Park District Board of Commissioners. The Park Board President is the presiding officer. Roberts Rules of Order related to parliamentary process are generally utilized.
- Public comments regarding any Park District business are welcome under the Visitors sections of the Agenda. At the appropriate time, the President will ask if there are any comments or questions from the visitors. If you wish to speak, simply raise your hand to be recognized. After acknowledgment from the President, please stand and state your name and address before proceeding with your question or comment. (If a microphone has been set up, please approach the microphone.) Comments should be addressed to the Board and not to the audience. If you wish to talk with another member of the audience, please leave the room.
- Please limit your remarks to five minutes, if possible. Please do not ask a question for which you need an immediate response or attempt to enter into a debate. After public comment, an elected official may or may not respond to your question. Questions are often answered immediately in subsequent discussions during or after the meeting, or at a later date.
The Park District Board and Staff appreciate your attendance and participation!
