Campton Hills approves 50% reimbursement for Long Shadow Lane stormwater repair
Summary
The Village Board approved a homeowner reimbursement under the village stormwater repair program for work on Long Shadow Lane: 50% of a $2,250 invoice, totaling $1,125, consistent with the program rule of 50% cost-share up to $10,000.
The Campton Hills Village Board approved a homeowner reimbursement for stormwater repairs on Long Shadow Lane, paying 50% of a $2,250 invoice — $1,125 — under the village's stormwater reimbursement program.
"The way the ordinance or the program is written, it's 50% of the cost to repair up to $10,000," staff member Nick said during discussion. Trustee Muncy moved the reimbursement; Trustee Janet seconded. Trustees debated whether to make an exception to pay the full invoice but ultimately affirmed the program's 50% cost‑share intent to avoid setting a precedent for future claims.
Administrator Bruner described the administrative steps and confirmed the invoice submitted was for work the homeowner paid for; staff also confirmed the repair is functioning. Trustees said retaining the program design (50% cost-share) preserves capacity for future applicants.
Ending: The board directed staff to place a warrant payment for $1,125 at the next meeting and approved the 50% reimbursement as consistent with the village program.
