Summary
Trustees approved traffic safety signs, pavement striping, firefighting protective gear and appointed Martel Richardson and Annette Barker to commissions. The board approved an Art's II stock transfer to Khushbu Patel with one trustee voting "nay."
The Village of Maywood Board of Trustees approved several operational purchases and two commission appointments during its April 21, 2020 meeting.
On the consent of the board, the Village authorized Nafisco, Inc. to provide and install two Tapco solar radar speed-display signs on Ninth Avenue near Garfield School for $7,784.24. The board also authorized Mark-It Striping, Inc. to complete pavement striping village-wide for $34,637.69 under a bid waiver, and approved buying ten sets of structural firefighting protective clothing from Fireground Supply, Inc. for $29,373.50, also with a bid waiver.
Trustees confirmed two commission appointments: Martel Richardson to the Energy and Environment Commission and Annette Barker to the Beautification Commission. Both appointments were approved by voice vote without recorded opposition.
Separately, the board approved a stock-transfer application for Art's II Food and Beverage (817 W. Roosevelt Road), transferring ownership to Khushbu Patel. The motion carried but Trustee M. Lightford registered a "nay" vote while other members voted in favor.
Manager Norfleet and department directors said the purchases are intended to improve traffic safety, maintain pavement standards and support fire-department readiness; the appointments fill volunteer commission seats the board identified as priority items for community engagement.
