As though Halloween couldn't get even more fun, don't forget to fall back 1-hour this Saturday for the time change! This is a great time to change the batteries in your smoke/carbon monoxide detectors too!

Enjoy the extra hour of sleep!

Today is National First Responders Day! 🥳 The day recognizes those who are the first responders on scene when emergencies big and small take place and we want to say THANK YOU and give a shoutout to our fantastic Public Works and North Aurora Police Departments! We would not be the Village we are without all of your hard work, dedication and commitment to our community!

There's just about an hour left to come say goodbye to Pawfficer Zelda! Stop on by!

We invite the public (aka Zelda's adoring fans) to come say goodbye to the Goodest Girl at a retirement / open house event on Thursday, October 22 from 2-4pm at the North Aurora Police Department.

Pawfficer Zelda's handler is retiring (congrats, Officer Parr, on 29 years 🥳) and that means Zelda gets to enjoy retirement too. We have loved having our comfort canine in North Aurora and she will certainly be missed! Zelda has faithfully served the North Aurora community since joining the department in early 2023.

Come by the Police Department (no dogs, please!) to give her some last cuddles, pets and witness some adorable tail wags and floppy ears! 🐾

The North Aurora Police Department received a Sustained Traffic Enforcement Program grant administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation. Through this funding, officers will conduct additional traffic enforcement through 9/30/27 to help reduce crashes and save lives.

This grant helps us put additional officers on the road to address behaviors that lead to serious crashes. We urge everyone to make safe choices behind the wheel. Our priority is getting everyone home safely.

During this enforcement period, officers will focus on impaired driving, speeding, distracted driving, and seat belt violations among others.

The enforcement effort will support “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over,” and “Click It or Ticket” initiatives. These high-visibility campaigns combine enforcement and public awareness to encourage safer driving.

The FY27 STEP grant period runs from Oct. 1, 2026, through Sept. 30, 2027. Throughout the grant year, North Aurora Police will conduct additional enforcement, including during periods with a higher risk of serious crashes.

Do you recognize this little guy? 🥺 He was found wandering in the street in the area of Route 25 and Briar Lane this morning, and unfortunately had no collar, harness or microchip. If you have any information on this pup's owners, please give us a call at 630-897-8705. He'll hang out with us for a little while and if we don't hear from his owners he'll be transported to Kane County Animal Control.
