Monarch Butterflies

The Village Board recently updated the Village code to remove milkweed as a noxious plant. Milkweed is essential to the life cycle of monarch butterflies. A recent decline in the population of monarch butterflies across the United States has prompted local leaders to educate residents of the need for the milkweed plant. The Village includes milkweed in its natural landscaped areas and encourages residents to include the perennial plant in gardens as well. The Sustain Libertyville Commission will also be continuing educational initiatives to support the monarch butterfly as part of this national effort. For more information please visit the Mayor's Monarch Challenge website.

The feedback will help in the development of the plan so please complete the survey to assist with this important process. The survey is a fillable form online or a paper copy can be requested by calling 847-918-2100. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
