Decisions that Shape Our District
Standing Committees
Standing Committees are comprised of up to five residents (community representatives) and two Park Commissioners appointed by the Board annually. District staff report to the Standing Committees on a monthly basis. Once each report is received, reviewed, and subsequently approved by the Committee, the Committee then makes its recommendation to the full Board during the monthly Board meeting. Community Representatives do not vote as members of the full park board.

Prevailing Wage
The Hoffman Estates Park District adopted Ordinance O18-005 ascertaining the prevailing role of wages in accordance with the Prevailing Wage Act, 820 ILCS, at a meeting of the Park Board on the 26th day of June 2018. The original Ordinance, which lists the applicable prevailing rate of wages, is a part of the official records of the Park District and is on file and available for examination at the administrative offices of the Park District, Hoffman Estates, Illinois 60169.
Dated this 26th day of June, 2018
Craig Talsma, Park Board Secretary
Due to the enactment of Public Act 100-1177, which took effect June 1, 2019, HE Parks, while still required to pay prevailing wages for public works projects, is no longer required to adopt a prevailing wage ordinance or file it with the Illinois Department of Labor.
