Thank you, Minooka.
I’m incredibly honored and humbled to have been elected as one of your Village Trustees. I want to sincerely thank everyone who took the time to vote, support, or simply engage with the process. Whether you supported me or not, I am here to represent all of Minooka — and I take that responsibility seriously.
My first priority as trustee is clear: keeping our village safe. That means making thoughtful decisions, asking the right questions, and ensuring our policies and plans reflect the needs and values of our residents. I also care deeply about how our community grows. Growth is inevitable — but it must be the kind of growth that brings long-term benefit to the people who call Minooka home.
I want to be more than just a vote on the board. I want to be your voice. I’m committed to listening — really listening — and making sure your concerns, ideas, and even your compliments make it to the table.
Please feel encouraged to reach out anytime. I also invite you to attend village board and committee meetings when you can. You can see when meetings are happening on the Village’s website Here. Public input makes our community stronger, and your voice matters — not just at election time, but always.
I look forward to serving you.
— Josh Stell
Village Trustee
For a Stellar Minooka
