TINLEY PARK, IL — As we turn the page to chapter 2021, we find the April Consolidated Elections are just around the corner. Candidates for various positions around Tinley Park are officially in the running for mayor, village trustee, library board and more.
Filing for the election ended in December, with many old and new faces entering various races around the village.
