introduction<br />
Since its incorporation in 1880, the Village of<br />
Mokena has transformed into a prosperous<br />
community of more than 20,000 residents.<br />
While Mokena continues to experience an influx in well-planned<br />
residential, commercial and industrial growth and development,<br />
village leaders work hard to maintain its value as a friendly and<br />
connected community – as noted in its motto, “Planned Progress...<br />
Pleasant Living.”<br />
Suburban living really is at its finest in Mokena, which offers a quiet<br />
lifestyle complete with access to high-quality public services and<br />
conveniences akin to a larger city. Residents and employers are<br />
equally drawn in by Mokena’s exceptional education, recreation,<br />
shopping and healthcare outlets, as well as its prime location and<br />
access to a major transportation nexus.<br />
The Mokena Chamber of Commerce exists to advance the<br />
general welfare and the prosperity of the business community<br />
so that its members and community shall prosper<br />
