The Village of Tinley Park Committee of the Whole approved several routine and contract items on Nov. 18 during a meeting that also included a substantive tax-levy discussion.
Key actions and outcomes - Minutes (Item 3): Trustees moved to approve the Nov. 4, 2025 Committee minutes. Roll call was taken and the motion carried. - Liquor license — Shiki Buffet (Item 4): The board considered awarding a Class E liquor license to Shiki Buffet at 16060 South Harlem Ave.; a motion, second and roll call resulted in approval. - Tax levy direction (Item 5): Following discussion, trustees directed staff to prepare levy option 3b (a mid-range increase, roughly 2–3%) for the Dec. 16 vote.

Several of the items will return to the full board as ordinances, contracts, or formal agenda items at subsequent meetings for final execution and vendor signatures.
