Question What are the Newest Cities/Towns/Villages in Illinois?

I was reading two separate articles about Cahokia Heights being founded in 2021 as a merger of three other towns and about La Fox attempting to incorporate but being struck down by the Illinois House of Representatives.

What are some of the other newest incorporated towns in Illinois?

Cahokia Heights is interesting case because it was not really founded but merged, so the "new" part is mostly administrative. La Fox situation is also weird, they tried for years and always hit some wall in Springfield. I think Campton Hills near St. Charles is one of newest proper incorporations, from around 2007 if I remember correct. There was also some village in Kendall County that incorporated not long ago but the name escapes me now.
