The board unanimously adopted Resolution 25-06 to terminate old development agreements affecting parcels in the village’s marketplace ahead of an anticipated closing for a buyer identified in meeting materials as Woodsonia. The village’s development attorney, Alan Markovitz, reviewed the item and recommended approval, and trustees said the outstanding issues with Kroger and other parties had been resolved pending the closing date. The motion to adopt 25-06 was moved by Trustee Greaves and seconded by President Montgomery; Trustees Johnson, Gries, Thompson, Booker, Woods, Mullins and President Montgomery recorded votes in favor and the resolution was adopted.

Trustees also adopted Resolution 25-07 proclaiming Monday, May 12, 2025, as Arbor Day. The motion to adopt was moved by Trustee Thompson and seconded by Trustee Greaves; trustees recorded their assent and the resolution was adopted.

On infrastructure, the board approved two agreements required to advance the North Green Bay Road/State Highway 57 reconstruction project: a revised state–municipal financial agreement and a revised state–municipal maintenance agreement. The financial agreement (to obligate local shares and allow the project to be advanced into state design/letting) was moved by Trustee Owens and seconded by Trustee Thompson and carried unanimously. The maintenance agreement (to accept responsibility for new sidewalk and other local elements after construction) was moved by Trustee Woods and seconded as recorded; trustees voted in the affirmative and the item passed.

The consent agenda, approved earlier in the meeting on a motion by Trustee Thompson and seconded by Trustee Owens, included minutes from the April 7 meeting and a contract award for the 50th Street reconstruction project to Vinton Construction Company. Staff said the roadway portion of that project will be less disruptive than the upcoming bridge work, and that a public information meeting for residents will be scheduled before major closures.

What the votes mean: terminating the old development covenants clears title obstacles ahead of the marketplace parcel closing; the state agreements put the North Green Bay/State 57 reconstruction on the schedule for later design and construction phases while assigning the village long-term maintenance responsibilities for newly added sidewalks and other local elements.

Staff said crews have completed clearing and grading, and installation of storm sewer concrete piping, sanitary sewer laterals for a prefabricated restroom, and a water line serving park amenities is in progress. The park’s planned amenities run north to south and include a prefabricated restroom building, a nature-play playground, a full-size basketball court, two pickleball courts and a bicycle pump track.

A key procurement issue at the meeting concerned the prefabricated restroom. Staff told trustees the original Urban Blue unit, procured from a Canadian supplier, carried a contract price of about $405,000 and became subject to changing tariff rules that could increase costs. Staff said a comparable U.S.-based option from CoreWorth was quoted at about $281,000 delivered. Village staff and the contractor rebid the restroom unit and recommended selecting CoreWorth to reduce the village’s exposure to international tariff changes and to save roughly $124,000 versus the Urban Blue quote. The contractor indicated CoreWorth could deliver and install by mid-September.

Staff also reported supply-chain notes affecting other specialty pieces: the modular pump track had been ordered from Slovakia before a sudden 25% tariff on EU goods took effect, and that shipment was already inbound and therefore not subject to the tariff increase. Other items sourced internationally could still be exposed if tariffs or tariffs on steel change before delivery.

Board members asked about restroom security and accessibility; staff said the units use classroom-style door hardware that prevents deadbolting from the outside while allowing exit and that the village will provide routine servicing (toilet paper, paper towels) through Parks & Recreation, supported by seasonal staff in busier months. Staff said the village will include a drinking fountain in updated restroom drawings and will align access-control electronics with other park facilities.

The presentation was informational; the board did not take a formal vote but staff reported direction from the contractor to proceed with the U.S. supplier so the unit could be installed by mid-September and allow a likely fall ribbon-cutting once other work is completed.

What’s next: staff will finalize the CoreWorth purchase and coordinate installation scheduling with the contractor, and the village plans a ribbon-cutting in early fall (September–October) if construction proceeds on the current timeline.","Work at 10 Mile Park began April 1 with site removals complete and underground utilities under way; village staff recommended a U.S.-based prefabricated restroom (CoreWorth) over an imported Urban Blue unit to reduce cost and tariff exposure.","actionData","errors"]
