Board recommends $356,256.41 pay request for Hickory Lane reconstruction project

The Board of Public Works recommended that the Budget & Finance Committee and Village Board approve pay request number 1 for the Hickory Lane reconstruction project, for contractor Vinton Construction. A motion to recommend the pay request was made and seconded; trustees approved it on a voice vote. During discussion a trustee asked about the total project cost; staff said it was “somewhere in that neighborhood” of roughly $2 million but did not supply a precise total in the meeting packet. The pay request amount appears in the agenda materials as $356,256.41; during the oral motion one speaker read a slightly different figure (transcription shows minor variance), but the pay request amount in the agenda is $356,256.41 and the board carried the motion. The matter will proceed to the Budget & Finance Committee and Village Board for final approval and payment.
