Orland Township
Township government is the oldest form of government in the United States, founded in 1636 in Providence, R.I.
Orland Township held its first meeting on
April 2, 1850. Since then, we have worked
to provide constituents with the three
basic mandated functions of a township:
road and bridge maintenance, property
assessment, and general assistance such
as food and emergency relief for people
in need. But the programs and services
of Orland Township reach well beyond
that; we also provide senior and youth
programs, assistance for the disabled,
upkeep of parks and recreational
facilities, and health services, just to
name a few. All residents are eligible to
participate in the services offered by
Orland Township. Income guidelines
Worship
The churches and worship centers in the Orland Park area are as diverse as the people who grace this growing community.
From congregations that have been here since the early settlers came, to the new bodies of folks who gather in school gyms
until their new buildings are completed, all kinds of faiths are represented in and around the Orland Park area.
The Village of Orland Park works
diligently to network with area churches,
especially when it comes to dealing
with issues that affect the quality of
life of the Orland Park citizenry. Each
church, house of worship and temple
is unique in what it offers to those who
come through their front doors. And yet
there’s a spirit of caring and concern
uniting all of us.
generally do not apply, except in such
areas as general assistance and the food
pantry.
Orland Township covers a 36-square-mile
area that is home to more than 100,000
residents. We stretch from 135th Street
on the north to 183rd Street on the
south, and from Harlem Avenue on the
east to Will Cook Road on the west. We
serve the communities of Orland Park,
Tinley Park, and Orland Hills, as well as
the unincorporated areas within these
boundaries.
We invite the public to our monthly
Board meetings, which are held on the
third Tuesday of every month at 7:30
The community environment provides
regular opportunities for worship
and it provides social and outreach
opportunities for adults and young
people. Most importantly, the Orland
Park community gives to the area
residents a sense of being rooted in
tradition and values that too often get
lost in our fast-paced way of life.
