Votes at a glance: Elmhurst City Council meeting Feb. 18, 2025
Summary
Summary of recorded council votes at the Feb. 18 meeting, including consent agenda approval, accounts payable, the Explore Elmhurst trolley program and the sidewalk master plan.
The Elmhurst City Council recorded several formal votes on Feb. 18. Key outcomes:
Consent agenda: The bundled consent agenda was approved 14–0 (14 present, 0 absent) after two items were removed for separate consideration.
Accounts payable (agenda item 6.2): Approved. Alderman Urbie recused himself from the vote on an accounts‑payable batch that included a payment to the American Legion because he said he became the American Legion manager in January 2025. During the roll call other aldermen registered their positions and the item passed; the transcript records the passage of item 6.2 following the roll call.
Explore Elmhurst trolley program (agenda item 6.7): The council approved the 2025 trolley report and directed staff to finalize documents for council approval; the recorded vote was 14–0.
Sidewalk master plan (agenda item 6.8): The council adopted the sidewalk master plan by roll call, 13 yes, 1 no (Alderman Taluto voted no). The plan establishes three priority phases and a 40‑year planning horizon, with a three‑year target to complete safe routes to school in phase 1.
Notes: The consent agenda and votes referenced above are recorded by roll call in the meeting transcript. Several other consent items and resolutions were on the agenda; items that remained on the consent agenda were passed as part of the bundled vote unless pulled for separate discussion.
