3. What is Clean Air Counts?

The Village of Orland Park is a member of Clean Air Counts, a northeastern Illinois regional initiative to reduce ozone-causing emissions and improve air quality. It is a voluntary, public-private effort that has members in the six-county greater Chicago region and is a collaborative effort between the Metropolitan Mayors Caucus, City of Chicago, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 5, and Illinois Environmental Protection Agency.

Orland Park has partnered with individuals, businesses, and over 30 municipalities in this effort. As a member of this initiative, the Village’s public education efforts have included articles in the Village newsletter, the Orland Park Public, and information released to the local media. An informational flyer titled Driving More Efficiently has been developed with information from the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and contains information describing how to increase fuel economy while driving.

Additional efforts include publishing articles on ways to save energy at home, making information available on the Village website, distributing brochures, and other efforts. Orland Park is one of seven communities that received the bronze level designation in the program last year.

“Clean Air Counts is an important initiative and the Village is pleased to be a part of it,” said Mayor Dan McLaughlin, “We look forward to continuing our partnership with Clean Air Counts and our efforts to improve air quality.”
