Sixth Street improvement grants resubmitted, village staff says
Summary
The commission heard an update that federal grant applications for the Sixth Street improvement project will be resubmitted after congressional budget action did not include the grants; the village manager is coordinating resubmission.
Commission staff told the Hinsdale Historic Preservation Commission on May 19 that the Sixth Street improvement project’s federal grant applications will be resubmitted after the recent federal appropriations process did not include funds for the projects.
Why it matters: The grant funding would support upgrades to Sixth Street; resubmission keeps the village’s request in active consideration for federal support.
What staff said: The village manager has told staff the grant applications will be refiled using the same resident signatures and support materials that accompanied the earlier submissions. Staff emphasized signatures on the grant petitions are expressions of support for federal funding only and do not commit signatories to a special service area or other local funding mechanism.
Next steps: Staff will monitor the resubmission process; commissioners and residents will be advised of any village‑board actions or new funding schedules as they are confirmed.
