Steger delays garbage contract decision pending additional proposer information

Board of Trustees of the Village of Steger · September 8, 2026

Summary

Village Administrator Joseph Wiszowaty told trustees requests for information remain outstanding from both proposers for garbage service; he expects the issue back before the board Sept. 21 and a proposed contract for consideration Oct. 5 to allow transition planning.

Village Administrator Joseph Wiszowaty told trustees the board did not make a decision on garbage service contracts at the Sept. 8 meeting because he is still awaiting requested information from both proposers. He said he anticipates bringing the matter back to the board at the Sept. 21 meeting for preliminary discussion and a proposed contract for consideration on Oct. 5 so the village can begin a transition process if awarded.

Wiszowaty did not disclose the proposers’ names or the specific information outstanding at the meeting. Trustees were told a Committee of the Whole will meet on Sept. 21 to review website proposals as well; the garbage contract item is expected to be scheduled for board consideration during the regular meeting cycle.
