Village advises “WHEN TO CALL POLICE DISPATCH”

VBH Call

From the Village website:

“Our area is forecasted to experience a possible wintery mix with slippery travel and a glaze of ice. These conditions may result in possible hazardous situations. Our residents are the eyes and ears of the community and we thank them for reporting these possible conditions. It is important to know who to call.

If Village Hall receives after-hour voice mails, messages are heard the next business day. All too often messages are left on the weekend regarding situations that should be reported directly to police dispatch, i.e. a possible road hazard, a questionable power line, etc.

To ensure a timely response, always call Quadcom Police Dispatch at 847-428-8784 where dispatchers are available 24 hours, seven (7) days a week. Residents are encouraged to call QuadCom whenever they have a safety concern—and no, it is not a bother. In fact, Police Chief Joseph Colditz encourages residents to do so and not to hesitate.

Remember, if you have an emergency, always dial 911.

Call QuadCom for:

As always, drivers are asked to proceed according to weather conditions. In wintery/icy conditions, please drive with caution, leaving ample space between you and the vehicles around you, and allowing more time to get to your destination.”
