The Village Board voted to extend the Burning dates through Saturday, June 3, 2017. Please remember that burning must only be from 9:00 a.m. until sunset on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays when the wind is less than 14 m.p.h. All burning must be on the owner's property -- not in the street or alley, but alongside. The fire should be attended at all times by a legally competent adult (with access to a water hose) until completely extinguished. Thank you for following the ordinance on this! Be safe!

Up for auction: 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD regular cab (153,332 miles) 2002 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD extended cab (228,300 miles) 2003 Hyunda Santa Fe. (153,258 miles) See photos below:    One of the best things about small town life is the sense of community that exists among the people who live there. For many years, Williamsville has been fortunate enough to have a group of people who care enough to lend their time and expertise to a number of community events each year. With less government funding coming our way, the fact that we have a self-sustaining Community Foundation is very important. This Foundation needs your "hands on" help!
We are actively seeking new members to join the Foundation and help us keep the community spirit alive in Williamsville! We are struggling with a lack of new members and will be unable to continue on with the events that we currently put on, including the Easter Egg Hunt, Fourth of July Celebration, Fall Festival and Santa Comes to Town. You can be as involved as much or as little as you'd like -- we'd love to have you join us! We are open to new ideas and suggestions! If you'd like to sign up, please show up at any meeting -- 6:30 p.m. on the first Monday of each month at the Village Hall. If you'd like to talk about it, please contact me directly at 217-306-0004 or call the Village Hall at 217-566-3806. Thank you for your interest! The Williamsville Public Library and Museum will be hosting Bill Shannon from the Chatham Railroad Museum on Wednesday, April 19, at 1:00 p.m. As one of the displays at the Museum shows, the Chicago and Mississippi Railroad helped turn the town of Benton into our Village of Williamsville. Learn about how railroads helped shaped the history of Williamsville and surrounding communities. Click on the Library and Museum web page to learn more.
