No Mow 'til Mother's Day Initiative Returns The "No Mow 'til Mother's Day" initiative is back! This program invites residents to refrain from mowing their lawn—or a portion of it—until the first week of May to support the local ecology, pollinator habitats and area wildlife.

Distracted Driving Awareness Month
April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month, and the Lombard Police Department is ramping up efforts to keep our roads safe. Officers are out in full force, watching for drivers who are texting or otherwise distracted behind the wheel.
“Distracted driving is a serious threat to public safety, and in 2023 it was responsible for 58 deaths in Illinois,” said Police Sergeant Tom Balsitis. “Taking your eyes off the road for even a few seconds can have devastating consequences. We urge all drivers to stay focused and make safe driving their priority.”
