Montgomery board approves consent agenda, easement transfer for Route 25 lift station and closes municipal utility tax audit
Summary
Trustees unanimously approved the consent agenda (minutes and $400,099.97 payables), authorized transfer of the Route 25 Lift Station easement from Fox Metro Water Reclamation District to the village, and approved closure of an Azovar audit that will remit $6,227.35 to the village.
Montgomery’s village board unanimously approved several administrative items including the consent agenda, a resolution to accept a transferred easement from Fox Metro Water Reclamation District for the Route 25 Lift Station, and a resolution closing an audit performed by Azovar Audit Solutions.
On the consent agenda trustees approved the minutes of the Nov. 12, 2024 board meeting, accounts payable and summary through November totaling $400,099.97, and the October 2024 refuse report. Trustee Mariszek moved approval and Trustee Brzozhka seconded; roll call recorded “yes” from each trustee present.
Director Wolf explained the easement transfer for the Route 25 Lift Station was appropriate because the station’s flows come only from Montgomery residents; historically the village owned the station but Fox Metro had operated it and retained the easement. “We have come to an agreement with Fox Metro that we are going to be taking over operations of that station,” Wolf said. Trustee Youngerman moved the measure, Trustee Geier seconded, and the resolution (2024-060) was approved on a unanimous roll call.
The board also approved resolution 2024-061 to authorize closure of a municipal utility tax audit conducted by Azovar Audit Solutions. The presenter said the village had entered a prior settlement related to ComEd and that additional audit corrections identified $6,227.35 now due to the village; closing the audit will allow Azovar to remit those funds. The motion carried unanimously.
Other items taken up as part of general business included a staff report that single-operator leaf-collection trucks performed well this season and community announcements about the holiday tree lighting (Dec. 8) and holiday-judging event (Dec. 11). The meeting adjourned following those items.
