Summary
At its Oct. 9 meeting the Lindenhurst Village Board adopted the FY 2022–23 financial audit, approved a special-use permit for a day spa at 2238 E. Grand Ave., and accepted the police pension compliance report while staff reported purchases of body-worn cameras and upcoming community events.
The Lindenhurst Village Board on Oct. 9 adopted the village’s FY 2022–23 financial audit, approved a special-use permit for a new massage therapy and day spa at Grand Plaza, and accepted the annual police pension municipal compliance report.
Representatives of Lauderbach and Amen LLP presented the audit and reported no material defects. The auditors noted upcoming Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) requirements related to public–private partnerships, compensated absences, leases and information technology that are expected to add time and cost to future audits. Trustee Pat Dunham moved to adopt the audit and the board approved it by a 6–0 roll-call vote.
The board also adopted Ordinance 23-10-2275 to allow Healing Hands Spa to operate a massage therapy and day-spa business at 2238 E. Grand Ave. The plan commission held a public hearing Sept. 20 and unanimously recommended approval so the applicant would not need a separate special-use application when day-spa services begin.
Trustees voted unanimously to accept the Police Pension municipal compliance report for fiscal year 2023. The report lists assets with a market value of $11,261,458 (a 2.4% increase), total disbursements of $496,340, investment gains of $181,092 (1.63%) and a funded ratio of 74.08%.
Police Chief Tom Jones told the board the department’s charitable golf outing raised $9,100 and that the department is partnering with First American Bank for a "Season of Giving" food drive running through Nov. 11. Jones also said the village has purchased body-worn cameras and is testing them with the goal of having all officers using them by the end of the current fiscal year, ahead of the January 2025 deadline.
The meeting opened with routine business including approval of minutes and bills for payment. The board approved three check runs totaling $507,164.33 for invoices due on or before Oct. 9, 2023.
The board adjourned at 8:06 p.m.
