Summary
The Village of Maywood approved Warrant List No. 200490 for $1,095,507.31 and omnibus agenda items A–R, authorizing multiple large payments and resolutions including Blue Cross insurance renewals, City of Chicago water charges, and engineering work for the Washington Boulevard project.
The Village of Maywood Board of Trustees approved Warrant List No. 200490 through April 1, 2020 in the amount of $1,095,507.31 and, by omnibus motion, authorized a set of vendor payments and resolutions labeled items A–R during its April 7 special meeting.
Trustee I. Brandon moved and Trustee A. Sanchez seconded approval of the warrant list; Trustee N. Booker drew attention to specific check numbers for follow-up. The omnibus package included large payments and contract actions: Blue Cross Blue Shield health premiums and a motion to approve renewal proposals (total premium cost reported as $3,326,110.00), City of Chicago water charges totaling $360,714.09 for January–February service, engineering invoices from Hancock Engineering, and sewer work by Visu-Sewer and Pipe-View.
Why it matters: These approvals release funds for ongoing municipal operations—health insurance, water, sewer, public-works engineering and construction—affecting service continuity and contract timelines.
Specifics in the omnibus: payments listed included Allied Waste Service for garbage pickup ($150,380.00), Atlas Bobcat engine purchase approval for Public Works ($7,989.19), Ray O’Herron equipment payment, and legal services statements. Resolutions adopted by omnibus motion included intergovernmental agreements for the Supplemental Reimbursement Ground Emergency Medical Transportation (GEMT) program and Local Public Agency agreements with the Illinois Department of Transportation for the Washington Boulevard project.
All omnibus motions carried with Mayor Edwenna Perkins and Trustees I. Brandon, M. Jones, A. Sanchez, K. Wellington and N. Booker voting aye; Trustee M. Lightford was absent.
Next steps: The executed contracts and payments will proceed as authorized; trustees flagged several individual checks for review and follow-up by finance staff.
