Sugar Grove, IL – Following the creation of the new "Sugar Grove Beautification Committee," the Village of Sugar Grove welcomes applications from community members interested in actively shaping the community's vibrant and appealing atmosphere. This committee, dedicated to fostering community pride and engagement, will collaborate closely with the Village Administrator, bringing fresh perspectives and ideas to the forefront for all residents to enjoy.

 

“We are thrilled to announce the launch of the 'Sugar Grove Beautification Committee.' This represents an exciting step forward in our ongoing journey to create a more vibrant and attractive community for all our residents. By actively engaging community members, we are dedicated to bringing fresh ideas to the forefront and enhancing the appeal of Sugar Grove as a place to call home. As this initiative kicks off, we eagerly anticipate the positive impact this committee will have on our village's appearance and overall quality of life,” said Village President Jennifer Konen.

 

The newly formed "Sugar Grove Beautification Committee" will engage with local community members and explore various projects and initiatives to enhance the Village's appearance. Among the initial projects on the committee's agenda are organizing a community "Clean-Up Day" to rejuvenate public spaces, and the involvement of committee members as judges for holiday contests, spreading seasonal cheer throughout the year.

 

This initiative will operate as a pilot program for one year, with plans for evaluation and potential expansion to follow. The Village Administrator will provide oversight and may involve other staff members as needed.

As part of the Village’s ongoing environmental effort, and in order to increase the number of trees in town, the Village is offering a 50/50 cost-sharing program for parkway trees. The Village will contribute 50% of the cost of the trees, with residents providing the remaining 50%. The cost includes the tree, delivery, installation, and mulch. Participation in the program is strictly voluntary, is limited to owner-occupied homes, and is on a first-come, first-served basis. Trees can be placed only within the parkway. Residents may suggest locations for their trees, but locations will be reviewed for suitability and utility conflicts. The final location will be at the discretion of the Public Works Department. The Village will plant the trees in late May to early June (as weather permits) and will monitor their health during the initial growing season. Orders and payments are due by April 18, 2025. 2025 Spring Parkway Tree Program Form
