Orland Park approves annexations and water agreement tied to future 143rd Street widening
Summary
The Orland Park Village Board approved several annexations — including 10600 West 167th Street for potential commercial use — and an agreement to supply the South Cook County Mosquito Abatement District with water at a nonresidential rate in exchange for dedicating right of way needed to widen 143rd Street.
The Orland Park Village Board approved several annexations and an agreement related to infrastructure improvements, Mayor Jim Dodge said.
Dodge identified one annexation at 10600 West 167th Street as a potential future commercial development site. He said additional annexations along Wolf Road and Consola Drive were approved to help address flooding concerns and to better manage long‑term land use around South Wolf Road.
Separately, the board approved an agreement to supply the South Cook County Mosquito Abatement District and two unincorporated parcels with water at a non‑residential rate; in return those properties dedicated right of way needed for the future widening of 143rd Street. Dodge said these agreements build on an intergovernmental partnership the village board began in November 2023 when it approved an intergovernmental agreement with the Mosquito Abatement District.
The transcript does not include annexation ordinances, parcel legal descriptions, or vote tallies; financial terms of the water supply agreement were not disclosed in the brief.
