Summary
Village President announced a federal grant awarded for reconstruction and utility work on 6th Street totaling $1,092,000; formal grant terms remain pending and the village will provide additional details once terms are finalized.
The Hinsdale Village President told trustees on Feb. 17 that a federal grant request submitted on the village's behalf has been signed and awarded, securing $1,092,000 for reconstruction and utility improvements on 6th Street.
The president said he received notification by phone from Congressman Chewy Garcia that the grant request had been approved and thanked the congressman, village staff, residents who advocated for the project and predecessor Tom Collie for his role in the original submission. Village staff will provide additional information once the formal terms and conditions are available.
The announcement was part of the president's wider community update, which also noted the village will release a design for public comment later in the week with the goal of moving toward a formal request for proposals. Trustees did not take a formal vote on the grant at this meeting; the president said the village is still awaiting the grant's formal terms and conditions before advancing procurement or construction steps.
