Warrenville council approves consent agenda, directs $120,000 GIS contract; adopts franchise and administrative resolutions
Summary
Council accepted a multi‑item consent agenda that included franchise provisions and administrative resolutions, and directed staff to bring a resolution to approve a $120,000 GIS services contract with Cultivate Geospatial Solutions for FY2027.
The Warrenville City Council accepted the consent agenda as read by the mayor, approving multiple ordinances and resolutions including: amendments to city code reading procedures (O2026‑14), restaurant and bar tax changes (O2026‑15), authorization to dispose of city property through Obenauf Auction Services Inc. (O2026‑16), special use and temporary use permits for properties on Illinois Route 59 (O2026‑17, O2026‑18), a site‑specific amendment in Cantera Lakes Office Park (O2026‑19), a special use permit and variance for a golf simulator club (O2026‑20), and several resolutions including an amendment to the Groot Incorporated franchise agreement for solid waste collection (R2026‑22), FOIA/OMA designees (R2026‑23), and adoption of an ADA public rights‑of‑way self‑evaluation and transition plan (R2026‑24). The consent motion carried on a roll call with five affirmative votes.
Separately, Director Cookler presented a proposed $120,000 contract with Cultivate Geospatial Solutions (CGS) to support the city’s geographic information system (GIS) and to develop dashboards that extract information from newly implemented software. Cookler said FY2027 is expected to be the last year of heavy implementation work and that FY2028 will likely move to a maintenance‑level contract roughly half the cost. Council directed staff to prepare a resolution approving the contract; the motion was moved and seconded and the voice vote carried.
Council also approved a 2% market‑based wage increase for non‑union employees as included in the proposed FY2027 budget, and accepted expenditures listed in the agenda packets (invoices paid to March 25, 2026: $239,924.21; invoices due before April 2026: $840,646.36). The Mayor noted informational items in the packet, including meeting minutes from boards and commissions and a wire transfer report.
Next steps: staff will prepare the resolution language for the CGS contract for formal consideration and will continue to provide informational reports to the council in packet materials.
