Lombard Village

Lombard, while I am still most appreciative of the things I mentioned in my previous review, you gotta lose a star now.
The storm blew through here on ⁷⁄₁. Please explain to me why it is now ⁷⁄₁₇ and the storm debris is STILL on every street? I’ve driven through Elmhurst and Villa Park and they are at least making progress. But you? Nooooo.
Also, remember that blurb in my original review about the oversight on my part in paying my sewer bill? Did you have to retaliate with oversight on YOUR part in closing the file on that as PAID? The mortgage company was not amused when it came time to re-​finance. Neither was I.

Let’s talk about vehicle stickers.
I was not aware of this phenomenon until I moved to Illinois. I was not aware that many suburbs had them until I moved to Wood Dale. THOSE stickers are actual stickers. They are an enormous pain to get off. It took me over an hour to scrape, peel, razor and spray my previous two off.
So enter Lombard. You know what Lombard’s vehicle stickers are? Vinyl cling. No adhesive, no mess. BRILLIANT. I love it.
It’s such a small thing, and yet, I am so grateful. For I know as long as we live in Lombard, I will not have to peel and scrape endless stickers off my windshield each year.
(Oh, and the police and public works departments are pretty helpful, as previously noted. They listen to my suggestions. They take my stolen GPS report without calling me an idiot. They CALL me to explain why there’s no crosswalk at Highland and Majestic. Rock and roll.)
