Bourbonnais Police invite village residents and businesses to attend Community Townhall Meetings on Wednesday, October 19, and Wednesday, October 26. The meetings are part of new safety initiatives spearheaded by Patrol Commander, Brent Barrie.
The goal of the townhall meetings is to bring Bourbonnais neighborhoods together to discuss interest in forming neighborhood watch groups, review different ways to heighten awareness, increase residential communications, address potential concerns and help prevent crime, together.
The Townhall Meetings will be held in the Community Room within the Bourbonnais Municipal Center at 700 Main St. NW. The Village of Bourbonnais is divided into four areas (see attached map) and residents are asked to attend the meeting specific to their designated area.
- Wednesday, October 19:

Chief of Police, Jim Phelps, Deputy Chief, Dave Anderson, Commander Barrie, sergeants and patrolman will be available to engage with residents and businesses in a casual environment. Officers will present the currently available community policing services from the Bourbonnais Police Department, introduce new safety equipment the Village of Bourbonnais has invested in, identify proactive police measures that have been taken over the past several months to increase crime prevention and address questions and concerns from the community.
The Bourbonnais Police Department consists of 27 officers serving an estimated 18,164 residents with a mission “To Protect with Courage, To Serve with Honor and Compassion.”
