Sugar Grove board approves two road-resurfacing shares and replacement wheel-loader hitch
Loading...
Summary
The village board unanimously approved resolutions authorizing the village’s share of construction and engineering costs for Wheeler Road and Dugan Road resurfacing (25% share noted for Wheeler) and authorized the purchase of a replacement wheel loader hitch; items were approved via roll-call votes as part of general business.
The Sugar Grove Village Board on April 7 approved multiple infrastructure items during general business, including resolutions authorizing the village’s share of construction and engineering costs for Wheeler Road and Dugan Road resurfacing projects and a budgeted purchase of a replacement wheel loader hitch from Altaifer Cat.
Brad Margo, who presented the resurfacing items, said the Wheeler Road project requires village authorization to receive federal SDP funds and that the village’s share for that project is 25%. "In order to receive the federal funds for this project, we have to approve a resolution authorizing the village's share of funds, which is 25% of the project," he said.
Each resolution was put forward with a motion and second and passed on roll-call votes; the consent agenda that included other items (vouchers, electric supply renewal authorization, liquor-license fees and related permits) was approved earlier in the meeting. The board also authorized the purchase of a replacement wheel loader coupler that staff said had been included in the budget; the presenter noted the loader is approximately 20 years old and the replacement was for normal wear and tear.
All votes recorded in the transcript were 'Aye' on roll call and the chair announced approval of the items. The meeting packet contains the detailed cost estimates and funding breakdowns for the resurfacing projects and the equipment purchase; those specifics were not fully enumerated in the spoken record.
