The Public Information Department's mission is to convey to all residents as much information as possible about their municipal government's services, events, activities, and programs. The department consists of two divisions: Cable Operations and Print.

The Print Division publishes a four-page monthly tabloid-size newsletter, The Oak Park Report, which is distributed to all City addresses. It also publishes and distributes community-wide an Annual Report/Calendar, a Citizen Participation Guide and a Family City Directory.
In addition, the Print Division is responsible for the City's media relations.

The Public Information Department, in conjunction with the City Attorney's Office, negotiated Oak Park's contract with its cable franchisee Comcast (formerly Media One) a comprehensive Franchise Agreement document which assures resident subscribers a state-of-the-art programming spectrum and which provides significant financial support for the municipal communications functions.
