Crestwood & Midlothian Join Together to Alleviate Chronic Flooding
The Village of Crestwood, in partnership with the Village of Midlothian, will host a Public Information Event on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, at 6:30 pm at the Crestwood Civic Center to share information about the Crestwood/Midlothian Flood Mitigation Project, a major effort to reduce chronic flooding. The project will focus on the area bound by Midlothian Turnpike (north), 147th Street (south), Lamon Avenue (east) and Central Avenue (west). Studies by Crestwood, Midlothian, and Bremen Township confirmed recurring flooding affecting homeowners, a local church, and major roadways such as the heavily traveled Midlothian Turnpike. These studies resulted in eleven targeted drainage improvements across seven locations designed to lower water surface elevations, improve stormwater flow and storage, and strengthen the watershed’s resilience to future flooding.
The Villages of Crestwood and Midlothian have entered into an Agreement with the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (MWRD) for vital funding to advance this project, which requires easements, land acquisition, and coordination among several agencies. Construction will occur in two phases that include stream?flow improvements, new and reconstructed detention basins, culvert upgrades, streambank stabilization, and additional stormwater storage. At this time, construction is scheduled to begin in Winter 2027.
Residents are invited to learn more at this event at the Crestwood Civic Center, 13820 S. Cicero Avenue from 6:30 to 8:30 pm on April 28, 2026. Crestwood and Midlothian staff, along with the project engineers, will be available to answer questions and discuss anticipated benefits for the community.

Village of Crestwood Parking
Crestwood Village ordinance prohibits parking on any village street between 2:00am and 6:00am. The reason for this ordinance is so police will be alerted to abandoned vehicles or suspicious vehicles that require investigation. This ordinance also ensures that all streets throughout the Village will be open to fire and rescue equipment in the event of an overnight emergency. This is especially necessary in areas where narrow streets can block largefire trucks. We will continue to enforce this ordinance. Thank you for your cooperation with this ordinance. The initial fine for this violation is $75.00. This is a Village-wide ordinance.
PLEASE
BE SURE THAT YOUR LATE NIGHT AND OVERNIGHT GUESTS ARE MADE AWARE OF THIS AS WELL!
