Road closing for repairs

JOLIET -- The city will close Joliet Street from Cass to Jackson streets Monday so work can begin on a streetscape project expected to last until early December. The project includes road reconstruction, storm sewer work and landscaping.
Local traffic can access businesses and lots on Joliet Street from adjacent side streets, including Webster, Benton and Crowley.


Village airs Elvis film

SHOREWOOD -- To coincide with the village's 50th anniversary, the village will show Elvis Presley's "Jailhouse Rock" Oct. 13 at Four Seasons Park on Seil Road.
A DJ will kick off the evening at 6 p.m. The movie will begin around 6:45 p.m.

"It coincides with the 50th anniversary of the village," said Shorewood Recreation Supervisor Linda McCluskey. "The village (was incorporated) the same year the movie was released."

There will be a full concession stand. The showing, sponsored by CitiBank, is free to all residents.
