Plan Commission
Beware of scam: If you received an email that appears to be from me or the Village requesting a wire transfer and referencing your past Plan Commission or Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) applications, please ignore it and do not proceed with any kind of payments/transfers. It seems a third party is scraping public records to create these fraudulent emails. The collects all application fees prior to bringing cases to the Plan Commission and ZBA. All official communications from the Village should be coming from emails ending in @oak-park.us. An investigation is ongoing. Community members are encouraged to exercise caution anytime they receive suspicious emails.
