From time to time, members ask the EPNCO to address various concerns or to initiate discussions on their behalf with police, elected officials, and other village employees. At such times, the EPNCO may, at your request, act as a proxy on your behalf, in which case your identity and personal information is kept confidential. Your privacy and safety is extremely important to us and we appreciate the trust that members and Elmwood Park residents place in the EPNCO.
