Board agrees to host Illinois State Police crash‑reconstruction officers
Summary
Orland Park approved an interagency agreement to house two Illinois State Police crash‑reconstruction officers at the village police department; the chief said the arrangement provides an additional on‑scene resource.
The village board approved an interagency agreement to allow two Illinois State Police traffic crash reconstruction officers to be based at the Orland Park Police Department pending attorney review.
Trustee Jesse Lawrence moved to approve the agreement and the police chief explained that hosting Illinois State Police reconstructionists would supplement local resources and provide specialized expertise on complex crash scenes. Trustees expressed support and recalled times when they would have benefited from such specialized assistance.
The motion passed by roll call; staff noted the arrangement is pending final attorney review and will augment the department’s existing reconstruction capabilities rather than replace them.
