Villa Park board creates VillaFest Commission, approves consent agenda and appoints Beverly Johnston to Senior Concerns Commission
Summary
Trustees voted to create a VillaFest Commission (waiving first reading), approved the consent agenda including bills and a contract change order, and appointed Beverly Johnston to the Senior Concerns Commission for a term ending April 30, 2028.
The Village of Villa Park on Nov. 19 approved Ordinance 13A to create a VillaFest Commission — an advisory body to plan, coordinate and execute community events including a rebranded Summer Festival (VillaFest). Trustee Cozart moved to waive the first reading and approve; Trustee Sabri seconded; the motion passed after trustees discussed how the commission will coordinate with existing commissions.
The consent agenda was approved and included bill listings for the weeks of Nov. 3 ($1,188,588.05) and Nov. 10 ($469,921.35), multiple sets of meeting minutes, an ordinance granting a zoning variation for 427 N. Wisconsin Ave., and final change order No. 01 to Meru Sewer Construction for Ridge Road Drainage Improvements adding $47,710.93 to the contract.
The board also appointed Beverly Johnston to the Senior Concerns Commission for a term expiring April 30, 2028; trustees discussed meeting frequency for that commission and plans to advertise openings and begin quarterly or monthly meetings as appropriate.
All motions were carried by roll-call votes.
