The Montgomery Village Board has officially approved the Village's new Strategic Plan 2025-2029. This comprehensive plan, designed to guide the Village's initiatives and priorities over the next five years, results from a collaborative effort led by the Village Board and Staff.

"This Strategic Plan embodies our team's collective vision and dedication," said Village President Matt Brolley. "By leveraging the expertise of staff from all areas of business, we've created a roadmap that ensures Montgomery continues to thrive while addressing the needs and priorities of our community."

Highlights of the Plan:

Develop Infrastructure, Facilities, and Resources: Continued investment in roads, utilities, water infrastructure, and public facilities to enhance community resilience and prepare for future generations.
Promote Civic Engagement: Investment in people and programs to foster a higher level of transparency, accessibility, and communication between the Village and its residents.
Focus on Sustainability: Efforts to promote sustainable practices by preserving natural resources and fiscal responsibility as the Village focuses on ensuring the transition of water sourcing through the DuPage Water Commission.
Enhance Economic Development: Initiatives to attract and retain businesses, create job opportunities, and curate a more vibrant local economy.
A Collaborative Approach

Village staff internally developed the Strategic Plan 2025-2029, reflecting a deep understanding of Montgomery's unique challenges and opportunities. Teams across all divisions contributed their insights, expertise, and innovative ideas, ensuring the plan was comprehensive and achievable.

"One of the most rewarding aspects of this plan is that it was built from the ground up by the people who serve our Village daily," said Village Administrator Jeff Zoephel. "Approximately twenty staff members served on the Leadership Team; their dedication to Montgomery's success is evident in every detail of this plan."

With the Board's approval, the Village will begin implementing the Strategic Plan's initiatives. The 2025-2029 strategic plan is available on the Village website at montgomeryil.org/739/Strategic-Plan.
