The Bensenville Park District is governed by five elected officials who set the policies for the operation of the district. Park commissioners are elected by residents of the district to a six-year term without pay. Current commissioners are Nancy Gibbs (Secretary), Jay Snyder (Treasurer), Valerie Karg (Vice President) and Rich Johnson (President).
It is only the Park Board, acting at a legally constituted meeting, which has the authority to establish or change policy, sign agreements or award contracts. The Park Board appoints an executive director to manage the day-to-day operations of the district. Board meeting agendas, staff reports, and meeting minutes are posted online through the Bensenville Park District website.
