The Geneva City Council on April 20 approved routine business items and four public-measure votes covering grants, utility and development finance steps.

On a roll-call vote the council approved the omnibus consent agenda (10–0) and municipal bills for payment aggregated at $4,023,717.66 (10–0). The council then unanimously approved:

- Resolution 20 26-45, authorizing a change order with Vaughn Electric Inc. to install a temporary generator at the police department; staff said the purchase will be front-funded by the city and reimbursed by a state grant.

- Resolution 20 26-46, adopting IDOT forms BLR 14220 and BLR 14222 for FY27 local road management costs.

City staff said the generator change order was funded through a state grant and that the SSA ordinances are procedural steps required by prior agreements. No member voted against any of the measures.
