Richton Park adopts boot system to curb parking violators
Richton Park moves to boot violators after initial hearings drew only 59 of 250 notified. Police use handheld computers to track repeat offenders up to five years, with fines from 25 to 250 dollars. The village says court dismissals of minor violations prompted local action and warns drivers not to drive with the boot.

Tax abatement plan eyed to lure development in Matteson
The school district backs a five year tax abatement offering 32 cents of each tax dollar, up to $500000 per development before 2000, requiring a 60000 square foot minimum. Firms may qualify for the five year break and districts in nearby towns compete for business. The plan is not a TIF, amid support for the South Gate Commons TIF nearby.
