On February 17, 2016, United States Congressman Bobby Rush held a workshop on transportation funding in the South Suburbs. The workshop, hosted by Orland Hills Village President Kyle Hastings, was attended by Odelson & Sterk Attorney Mary Ryan Norwell and many Mayors from Suburban Villages. The workshop provided information about the Federal Government’s Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (Fast Act) and how the South Suburban communities can benefit from its programs.
