Roselle board approves consent agenda, infrastructure contracts and lead-servicepolicy amendment
Summary
The Roselle Village Board approved routine consent items, a water-main change order, a $54,000 contract for vactor services, a library license agreement, the April accounts payable list, and an amendment expanding lead service line replacement grant eligibility.
The Village of Roselle approved a package of routine items and several infrastructure contracts at its April 27 meeting.
The board voted to adopt the consent agenda, which included minutes from April 13, an ordinance declaring certain village property surplus, a resolution to close a state highway for the Rose Parade on June 7, a resolution to join a police records management system, and authorizations to use joint purchasing cooperatives for vehicle procurement.
Trustee Foresight moved and the board approved change order No. 1 for the 2026 water main and sanitary sewer replacement project with John Neri Construction for an additional $27,866. The board also authorized a contract with American Vactor Services for $54,000 after trustees noted the village would save compared with an estimated $67,650 in-house cost.
Trustee Tjo moved to approve a license agreement between the village and the Roselle Public Library; the motion passed by roll call. Treasurer Mr. Doll presented the accounts-payable list for April 27, 2026, in the amount provided in the meeting packet; a trustee abstained and the motion carried.
On policy, the board adopted an amendment to the village’s lead service line replacement policy that raises grant-eligibility thresholds: the full grant threshold was expanded from 100% to 150% of the federal poverty level; households at about 175% of poverty would receive 50% assistance; those at 200% would receive 25% assistance. Staff told the board they have not yet received many applications and said they do not have a firm estimate of the total cost because eligibility depends on residents coming forward.
The meeting packet and verbal roll-call votes reflect all approvals; staff said the approved IEPA loan proceeds of about $1.8 million were recorded in the water/sewer capital fund for 2025. The board adjourned at the end of the meeting.
