Hopkins Park, 65 miles from Chicago in Kankakee County, has gone decades without access to natural gas for heating their homes, but thanks to a new partnership between governments and Nicor, those pipelines will finally run to Pembroke Township.

The gas pipelines are a lifeline to some in a community where the median income is about $22,000, and some homes lack indoor plumbing.

It’s unclear if this will happen, Hopkins Park Mayor Mark Hodge is optimistic that the investment will spark economic growth. Federal lawmakers participated in the negotiation process, including Rep. Robin Kelly, who helped bring all the stakeholders together. “I am thrilled and it’s my work and others it’s good to see it finally happen we are still waiting but everything is coming together,” Kelly said.“This gas can be detrimental to the environment,” said Pembroke Township resident Jufybza Wright.
