The Village of Glendale Heights board approved a slate of routine and substantive items at its April 2 meeting, removing one consent item for later consideration and adopting multiple ordinances and resolutions by roll call.
The board voted to remove consent agenda item number 9 (a resolution to accept a proposal and authorize execution of an agreement with Voda Inc. for public works software) and rescheduled it for the April 16 meeting. The remaining consent agenda passed, including payroll and accounts payable totaling $2,362,969.89 and pay request No. 2 to Performance Construction Engineering LLC for the West Burdett sanitary improvement project (not to exceed $162,675).
Ordinances adopted (first reading waived in each case): - Ordinance 2026‑24: Authorizes sale of surplus personal property owned by the village, including a 2017 John Deere compact utility tractor. Approved by roll call. - Ordinance 2026‑25: Authorizes agreement with Trotter and Associates Inc. for rehabilitation of clarifier No. 1 at the wastewater treatment plant. Approved by roll call. - Ordinance 2026‑26: Waives bid and authorizes an agreement with RKM Fireworks Company for the village fireworks display. Approved by roll call. - Ordinance 2026‑27: Amends Chapter 3 (Liquor Control) to require fingerprinting for license holders every three years and implements a 3% fee increase to stabilize license fees rather than indexing to CPI. Trustees discussed the fingerprinting requirement and the goal of predictable fees before approving the measure.
Resolutions approved: - Resolution 2026‑R‑36: Approves an addendum to the agreement with Ryan LLC for economic development and tax increment financing (TIF) financial services. Approved by roll call. - Resolution 2026‑R‑37: Authorizes transfer of funds from the expired North Avenue/Glen Ellen Road TIF (TIF 1) to Peterson Avenue/Glen Ellen Road and Second Place TIF districts, reallocating remnant funds to expand TIF 4 (associated with a Casey’s development). Staff explained TIF 1 had closed and leftover funds were transferable to the connected TIF 4; trustees approved the transfer by roll call.
All votes were recorded by roll call and resulted in approval where noted; no ordinance or resolution failed on the floor.
