- Ordinance (increase Class D liquor licenses by 1, 54 S. Bill Ave / 7-Eleven): Approved by roll call. Trustees indicated the action restores the 7‑Eleven’s license following remodeling; trustee Constastos clarified the change was not a net new license but reissuance to that location.
- Ordinance authorizing initiation of process to acquire property at 405 N. Ardmore (Hawthorne World Villa Park LP): Approved. The ordinance authorizes village attorneys to commence negotiations; board members said this does not bind the village to acquire the property.

- Parental leave policy (Resolution 13a): Postponed. The board voted to postpone discussion and potential approval; trustees amended the postponement date to July 14 to allow staff to provide a draft and for further vetting. Trustees recorded an abstention by President Patrick; other trustees supported moving the item to a future meeting and requested draft language be attached to the packet.
- Unfinished business: Trustees continued discussion on the Board Rules of Order and Procedure (Resolution 25015) and requested possible future amendments including guidance on executive session conduct, social media policy, and definitions of unfinished vs. new business; no final vote taken today.
- Executive session follow-up (summarized): Several executive-session items resulted in votes upon reconvening including personnel and attorney matters (see separate personnel article). The board announced it would return executed documents to the public record after finalization.
