Summary
The Village of Lisle approved its consent agenda (including the FY2026–27 budget and acceptance of a water-and-sewer rate study), authorized a $26,900 recruitment contract with MGT Impact Solutions, approved participation in an NIMEC streetlight power bid, and authorized a letter of intent to remain in the DuPage Police Records Management System procurement process.
The Village of Lisle Board on April 20 approved its consent agenda and several resolutions to maintain services and begin necessary procurement steps for staff and operations.
Village Manager Cook presented the consent agenda, which included approval of the April 6 meeting minutes, the March 2 closed-session minutes, an invoice list totaling $854,139.53, acknowledgement of the March treasurer's report, updated banking signatories, adoption of the FY2026–27 budget, multiple special-event permits, and a resolution accepting the village's water-and-sewer rate study prepared by 1898 and Company.
Following the consent agenda, the board approved a professional-services agreement to engage MGT Impact Solutions for full-service recruitment and selection of an assistant village manager (who would assist in selecting a future finance director) at a base price of $26,900 plus allowable travel or consultant expenses. Village staff said the firm is the local successor to GovHR, which the village has used in the past. The board moved and seconded the resolution and, after a roll-call vote, the motion passed.
The board also authorized the village manager to execute a contract for purchase of electricity for street lighting through the Northern Illinois Municipal Electric Collaborative (NIMEC). Assistant to the Village Manager Havlik explained the village's use of NIMEC to obtain fixed-rate electric supply for medium and large accounts and noted that participation is not required if bid prices are unfavorable. The resolution passed on a roll-call vote.
Chief Rodriguez asked the board to approve a nonbinding letter of intent to remain a participant in the DuPage County Police Records Management System (PRMS) procurement process; staff described safeguards, including participant notice and reassessment if projected costs grow by more than 10 percent. The board approved the resolution.
Staff also summarized routine public-works and landscape contracts included in the consent agenda: engineering services for the Main Street Streetscape project (construction engineering with Civiltech Engineering, not to exceed $442,935), a one-year contract extension with Go Painters Inc. for hydrant sandblasting and painting (not to exceed $29,850), a one-year extension with Mark 1 Landscape for mowing (not to exceed $71,883), and a one-year extension with Atrium Landscape Management for plant-bed maintenance (not to exceed $75,400). Staff recommended approval of all consent items and the board voted to approve them together.
The board adjourned and planned to return for a Committee of the Whole meeting shortly after.
