At a rescheduled meeting on Nov. 25, 2019, the Village of Maywood Board of Trustees approved Warrant List No. 200481 totaling $659,849.49 and passed an omnibus consent agenda covering legal invoices, contracts and routine payments.
Trustee Antonio Sanchez moved to approve the warrant list and Trustee Melvin Lightford seconded; the motion carried by voice vote with Mayor Edwenna Perkins and all trustees voting in favor. Trustees discussed three check numbers that appeared on the warrant before the vote; Village Manager Willie Norfleet Jr. and Trustee I. Brandon responded to questions.
The board reviewed an Open Invoices Report showing $1,961,356.45 in outstanding invoices but did not take action on that report.
Major payments approved on the omnibus agenda included: a $288,399.24 payment to the City of Chicago for water services; $205,317.45 to M&J Asphalt Paving Company for Madison Street TIF roadway improvements; $48,189.24 to Valor Systems, Inc. for user access licenses and data center sustenance; $155,926.42 to Allied Waste Service for garbage services; and routine payments to Comcast ($11,027.55), Fleet Services fuel purchases ($16,588.30) and Melrose Park water purchases ($50,091.61). The board also approved purchases for public works and equipment including a $6,982.84 signage contract and a $17,000 door replacement contract funded from the Madison TIF.
The board authorized $6,979.77 for fire engine repairs to be charged to the Vehicle Maintenance line (01-41-51300).
Votes at a glance: the warrant list approval and omnibus consent items passed by voice vote; the City of Chicago water payment (Item H) was moved separately and approved unanimously.
Next steps: items requiring further review — notably the Open Invoices Report totaling $1.96 million — were held for follow-up; no additional deadlines were announced at the meeting.
