Best of 2022

The voters are in for the winners this year

By HM Staff

This is our seventh salute to the winners, and this year, we want to congratulate everyone in town, from Village Officers to business owners, to shoppers. When the Village Board of Trustees voted to transition from the parking meters to time zone parking, the intent was to continue to support the vitality of the Village’s Central Business District. And that is what has happened. According to Brad Bloom, Assistant Village Manager, and Eva Field, Hinsdale Chamber of Commerce President, the new time zone parking has received positive feedback from businesses and customers alike.

Business owners are seeing more foot traffic which ultimately is good for sales. Of course, other things that help sales are great products and services, treating customers well, and value for the money. And those are areas where our winners excelled. Compare your choices to those who won in a variety of categories. And, then, get out and support your local businesses.
