Currently, Trustee Colleen McElroy and Trustee Rich Dziedzic are developing a plan to assist business owners. In the near future, the EDC will be looking for members to assist the committee.

The village of Worth is a proud member of the Chicago southland Chamber of Commerce


The Southwest Conference of Mayors (SCM) is leading a project to develop a transportation and economic development plan for the Harlem Avenue Corridor. The project goal is to develop a comprehensive corridor plan that unites the corridor, its activities and character to make it a more highly-functioning transportation corridor and activity center for the southwest suburbs. This planning project is designed to complement, not supersede, the existing plans of corridor communities. We encourage our residents to participate in the survey.
