Ordinances are local laws enacted by the Township Board, while Resolutions are formal expressions of the Board's opinions or actions. These documents are essential for understanding Township governance and legal framework. They are created and adopted under the authority granted by the Illinois Township Code (60 ILCS 1/).  

Ordinances have the force of law within the Township's jurisdiction, covering a wide range of subjects such as zoning, land use, and local regulations.

Resolutions, while not law, express the Township Board's stance on various issues or authorize specific actions, such as entering into contracts or approving appointments.
