Maywood trustees approve FY2019 budget amendments, warrant list and omnibus payments
Summary
Trustees approved a FY2019 budget amendment to add $232,550 in revenue, accepted Warrant List No. 200466 ($493,210.57), noted open invoices of $4,628,587.62, and passed an omnibus package of contracts and vendor payments including large vendor disbursements and select bid waivers.
The Village of Maywood Board of Trustees on Feb. 19 approved proposed FY2019 budget amendments, accepted a warrant list and passed an omnibus set of contracts and payments that together moved multiple expense and revenue adjustments and authorized vendor disbursements.
Finance Director Lanya Satchell presented the proposed amendments, saying total revenue would increase by $232,550 from sources such as the Illinois Debt Recovery Program, police towing, sale of property and transfer stamps. The amendment included line‑item decreases (for example, code enforcement decrease of $310,000 attributed to grant receipts and reductions in some departmental budgets) and increases to items including computer software ($20,000), law services ($3,500) and a $258,217.59 transfer to Human Resources reflecting moved expenses and liability/workers compensation changes.
The board approved Warrant List No. 200466 for $493,210.57 (motioned by Trustee H. Yarbrough and seconded by Trustee M. Lightford). Satchell also reported an Open Invoices total of $4,628,587.62 as of Feb. 14, 2019 for information only.
In an omnibus motion the trustees approved items A–V, which included an interagency user agreement with the Illinois State Police for ORI codes, disposal of surplus Fire Department property, contract awards for repairs to the Masonic Temple and Village Hall ceiling replacement, and multiple vendor payments. Notable payments recorded in the minutes include $291,813.74 to Blue Cross Blue Shield for insurance premiums and $330,918.63 to the City of Chicago Department of Water for water services. Attorney Michael Jurusik requested and obtained board inclusion of the phrase 'with a bid waiver' for two contract items before approval.
Board votes on these financial items were recorded in the minutes. The meeting also included discussion of public comments and other agenda items; no litigation or court actions were recorded in the minutes.
