The Village of Riverside announced on May 21 that it has launched a short community survey to collect feedback from residents about their preferences for waste hauling services. The current contract with Flood Brothers is set to expire in May 2027, and the village is seeking opinions regarding the quality and future direction of these services.
The village said that all perspectives are welcome, whether positive or constructive, as this input will help improve service delivery for the community. Residents can access the survey directly online through a provided link.
Riverside delivers municipal services such as fire suppression, emergency medical care, law enforcement, parks programs, and public library access. The municipality also promotes cultural awareness through its historical commission and public library programs. It aims to deliver these services responsibly while upholding its historical heritage and maintaining a strong sense of community, according to the official website.
Riverside stands out for its landscape design by Frederick Law Olmsted, known as a pioneer in landscape architecture. The village was recognized as a National Historic Landmark in 1970 for its significance in national history. It functions as a suburban municipality focused on both community management and historical preservation, according to the official website.
Residents are encouraged to participate in the survey so their voices can be heard before decisions are made about future waste hauling contracts.
