The Village of Lombard Board of Trustees unanimously approved a broad consent agenda that included payroll and accounts payable, first- and second-reading ordinances, contract awards for public works and engineering, and participation in purchasing consortia.

Consent items were presented by staff and summarized by the clerk. The motion to approve the consent agenda was made by Anthony (Trustee) and seconded by Dan (Trustee). The clerk called the roll; trustees present voted aye and the consent agenda passed. Several items included dollar amounts on the record: accounts payable and payroll line items totaling $695,260.16, $1,083,450.20, and $749,435.36 for specified pay periods; a Baxter & Woodman contract amendment for $28,500; a design-build authorization not to exceed $11,149,637 for the elevated storage tank; a sidewalk-slicing contract award of $18,101.60; a sanitary CCTV and cleaning contract award of $208,710.37; and a Woodrow Avenue reconstruction contract award in the amount shown in the agenda (contract amount presented in the meeting record).
