By Jon DePaolis ORLAND PARK, Ill. — A microcosm of a debate happening in towns around the country took center stage Monday, July 6, during the Village of Orland Park Board of Trustees meeting. A group of Orland Park and south suburban residents gathered in the atrium of Village Hall during the meeting because of limited space in the board room due to social distancing requirements. Eight of them spoke during the public comment portion of the meeting to ask the Village to drop its lawsuit against Gov. J.B. Pritzker and to cancel some of the larger planned summer events, such as the Centennial Park West concert series.
