About the 2025-26 Park Forest vehicle sticker design

The 2025-26 vehicle sticker shows the Village's Water Treatment Facility from an aerial angle, highlighting the new solar array on the roof and surrounding areas. That solar array is expected to save the Village an estimated $50,000 in electricity costs annually, offsetting 45% of the energy used by the Village, aligning with the Village Climate Resilience plan.
