Loading...
Summary
Trustees were updated on pool maintenance and a minor swim-test incident, IDOT approval of MFT paperwork and an oil-and-chip schedule for August, leaf-machine procurement, and plans to survey elevations in Saturn Terrace to address drainage concerns.
At the June 16 meeting the board received a Public Property Committee report outlining routine maintenance and near-term street work.
Trustee Tom Carpenter said pool staff replaced a hose on the slide, repaired grates and handled a minor rescue during swim testing; the swimmer was reported to be fine. A Pepsi vending machine at the pool was scheduled for repair the following day.
On streets, Crew Leader Bob Jenkins said crews are working work orders related to drainage problem areas. Village Engineer Tim Pruett confirmed the village submitted MFT paperwork to the Illinois Department of Transportation and received approval; contractors have been notified and oil-and-chip work is scheduled for Aug. 18–19. Trustee Ramon Matchett said the village is coordinating elevation surveys on Saturn Terrace to identify spot repairs and next steps for problem areas. The board noted the leaf-machine procurement is pending delivery from Armor Equipment and citizens have been lined up to assist with operations.
No formal votes were recorded on these items; trustee discussion focused on implementation scheduling and field work.
