The Village of Tinley Park Board of Trustees on June 17 approved a facade grant for Eggheads Cafe at 16952 Oak Park Avenue.
Trustee Dennis Mahoney moved to adopt Resolution 2025‑R‑080 to award a downtown Oak Park Avenue facade grant to Peter Akas of Eggheads Cafe. The grant is not to exceed $16,550 and will cover replacement of damaged veneer brick and installation of canvas awnings; the item had been discussed at the Committee of the Whole earlier that day. The board voted by roll call and approved the resolution; all trustees present voted yes.
No amendments were proposed during the meeting and no public opposition was recorded. The resolution's text specifies the grant cap and the property address; it does not list a payment schedule or require matching funds in the public discussion.
With adoption, village staff are authorized to administer the facade grant consistent with village program rules. The petitioner, Peter Akas, was invited to comment but made no additional remarks beyond the application information provided to the board.
