Two candidates are vying for the Downers Grove mayor's seat, with incumbent Bob Barnett facing a challenge from Marshall Schmitt.
Elected mayor in 2019, Barnett says he is excited about the opportunity to continue serving the community.
Barnett also lauds the start of the village facilities project, which entails the construction of a combined police station and village hall on the Civic Center property. It will include administrative office space for the Downers Grove Elementary District 58.The project is estimated to be completed in 2024, he said.
Some of his goals, if elected, would be to encourage responsible but balanced development; set procedures and standards in place that encourage transparent, ethical government; improve communication within the community and collaborate with the community and neighboring governmental entities to implement environmentally sound and sustainable best practices; and provide services to all of Downers Grove's community members.
Barnett said the village is working to address the homeless issue.
