How do I know if my right-of-way project is in the City's jurisdiction?

There are some areas within Rolling Meadows that the State and/or County own and maintain. City permits for work in those ROWs are not required, but State or County permits may be required.  The website at IL Road Jurisdiction-IDOT provides a color-coded map that identifies who owns and maintains each roadway within the City of Rolling Meadows. City staff can provide further assistance by e-mailing a request to ROWpermits@cityrm.org to assist with the identification of who owns and maintains the street. Be sure to provide the address or any other locational information in your request.
