Mangrove protection regulations do not apply to Oak Park. Mangroves are tropical/subtropical coastal trees that do not grow in Illinois's climate. This category is not relevant to Oak Park or any other Illinois municipality.
Mangroves are tropical and subtropical coastal trees and shrubs found in warm, salt-water environments. They do not exist in Illinois, which has a continental climate with cold winters. Oak Park, located in Cook County approximately 10 miles west of Lake Michigan, has no mangrove habitat or mangrove protection regulations.
