Loading...
Summary
At the Aug. 5 meeting the board approved the consent agenda, authorized a countywide non‑emergency police assistance agreement, retained Teska Associates for downtown TIF consulting, and waived bids to award a WWTP press building roof contract to Lakeland Contracting.
The Fox River Grove Board of Trustees used a single vote to approve a consent agenda that included meeting minutes, accounts payable through Aug. 5, treasurer reports for May and June, and a Business Capital Assistance Program grant for Magical Forest Bookstore.
Separately, the board authorized the Village Administrator to execute an intergovernmental Countywide Police Assistance Agreement that allows municipalities and the county to request non‑emergency law enforcement support (officers, vehicles or equipment) voluntarily and typically at no cost; Chief Waitrovich said requests for planned events usually require a month or two of notice.
The trustees also approved a contract authorization with Teska Associates, Inc. to provide tax increment financing (TIF) consulting for a proposed downtown TIF limited to Block B; Teska previously provided TIF consulting to the Village. Finally, the Board authorized staff to waive the competitive bid process and execute a proposal with Lakeland Contracting to replace the flat roof on the wastewater treatment plant press building; staff reported three proposals in the $24,085 to $60,526 range and recommended the lowest bid.
All motions recorded at the meeting passed by unanimous roll call votes or unanimous voice vote for adjournment. The board did not record any no votes or abstentions on these items.
