Summary
The Board set aside $30,000 for Census 2020 operations and equipment (to be reimbursed by the Metropolitan Mayors Caucus), approved an ordinance retitling and updating the Census Complete Count Committee, and was told the village must front $6,000 initially to receive full reimbursement.
The Village of Maywood Board of Trustees voted Jan. 21 to set aside $30,000 for 2020 Census operations and equipment; the minutes record the funding as reimbursable by the Metropolitan Mayors Caucus. Trustee I. Brandon moved the funding set-aside and Trustee N. Booker seconded the motion, which carried unanimously.
Mayor Edwenna Perkins noted the village would need to front an initial $6,000 to receive the reimbursable funds. Trustees also discussed use of the Village logo on Census materials; Village Attorney Michael Jurusik reminded the board that any use of the logo must comply with the Village Logo Policy.
The board also approved an ordinance amending Title III, Chapter 31 of the Maywood Village Code to update governing provisions and retitle the 2010 Complete Count Committee as the Census Complete Count Committee. Trustee N. Booker moved approval of the ordinance, and Trustee I. Brandon seconded. The motion passed unanimously.
Separately, Director David Myers announced the village had been awarded a $333,000 OSLAD grant to make repairs to the Fred Hampton Aquatic Center; Planning/Zoning Officer Edgar Lara was credited in the minutes for the grant effort.
