Buffalo Grove is inching closer to finalizing plans to hold its Buffalo Grove Days late summer festival with modifications to keep volunteers and attendees safe.
Village Public Works Director Mike Skibbe said Monday that his staff has been working with the Buffalo Grove Days Committee and Buffalo Grove Park District leaders to explore ways to resume the event, which was canceled in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Buffalo Grove officials are already planning for summer events.
But it s looking like Buffalo Grove Days might be drastically scaled down, even dead on arrival.
At Monday s committee of the whole, trustees pondered the options for summer events.
The Farmers Market is a shoe-in for this summer after a successful season, despite the pandemic.
The Fourth of July fireworks, which were canceled last year, could be returning.
Village Manager Dane Bragg said staff reached out to the park district about collaborating on a drive-in fireworks event utilizing the district s parking facilities, along with the municipal campus and, possibly, parking on Hamilton Partners office park property.
Buffalo Grove approves liquor license discount
Updated 2/17/2021 6:24 PM
Buffalo Grove trustees have approved a discount in the liquor license renewal fee for establishments serving liquor on their premises.
The aim, Deputy Village Manager Christopher Stilling told the board Tuesday, is to provide some relief to area restaurants during the pandemic.
The resolution reduces 2021-22 liquor license renewal fees for on-premises liquor license holders by 50%.
The matter had been largely discussed at previous meetings, so passage of the measure came quickly.
Trustee Eric Smith asked whether letters would be sent to the license holders in the renewal packet stating the village is giving them a discount and that it isn t the actual fee going forward.
