127th Street & 248th Avenue Intersection
Friday, September 18th, the Village will be completing traffic control improvements at the intersection of 127th Street and 248th Avenue. The existing “one way” stop will be converted to an “all way” stop. New stop signs, stop bars, and warning flashers/flags will be installed to alert motorists of this change. While some additional traffic congestion may occur along 127th Street, the new stop conditions will improve the overall safety of the intersection. Additionally, the installation of new traffic signals at the intersection in the near future should resolve potential traffic congestion issues. Construction of the new signals has already started and they are scheduled to be operational by the end of this year. If you have questions about this project, please contact the Public Works Department at (815) 436-3577.

Plainfield Letter re: H1N1 (swine flu) virus — (8-24-09)
CONNECT-ED MESSAGE SENT AT 7 P.M. AUGUST 24, 2009
Good evening, this is District 202 Director of Community Relations Tom Hernandez with important information for all of our families and staff. This entire message is posted on the front page of our web site (www.psd202.org)
This summer, you may have heard that the federal government is predicting an outbreak of the H1N1 flu this fall and winter. District 202 is already preparing for such an outbreak.
Tomorrow, all pre-kindergarten, elementary and middle school students will receive a letter from the superintendent outlining key information about our plans to deal with the H1N1 virus in our schools. Please look for it. We want to make sure you get this important information.
The letter, in both English and Spanish, is also posted on the front page of the District 202 web site for everyone, most especially our High School families to read and download.
Finally, we hope you had a wonderful summer break, and wish you a great 2009-2010
school year.
