A bus containing 90 migrants is expected to arrive in Elk Grove Village Saturday, according to a release from Village Mayor Craig Johnson.
They will be dropped off at the local La Quinta Hotel with some staying at the hotel indefinitely while others will find shelter elsewhere.
The news that migrants were being sent to the village came with no prior notification that the State's plan for welcoming migrants included sending them to hotels in suburban communities, according to Johnson. Village officials have been in close communication with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Illinois Department of Human Services, the Illinois Emergency Management Agency, and the Cook County Department of Emergency Management and Regional Security to gain a better understanding of myriad issues that have arisen since the Village was notified of the impending arrival of the migrants, the release said.
Village residents Saturday received a robocall to inform them about the arrival of the migrants. Johnson also expressed how disappointed he was in how the matter was handled.
