Dear River Forest Residents,

Thank you for continuing to take our community’s efforts to combat the spread of COVID-19 seriously. As we continue to enjoy our summer, please remind your family and those around you that we all play an important role in mitigating an increase in positive cases. If you are going to participate in or host a social gathering, please remember to ensure that all guests wear masks and practice social distancing where possible.

Please remember to stay safe, wear masks, practice social distancing, wash your hands and stay home if you are sick or at high risk.

ALERT!!! Protect Yourself from Utility Scams

Residents have reported receiving scam phone calls, including those posing as ComEd employees threatening to shut off the resident’s electricity unless payments are made. ComEd has joined other utilities nationwide in an effort to help protect customers against scammers.

To report a scam, please Police Officer Ben Ransom at bransom@vrf.us or 708-714-3543.
