The Glendale Heights village board approved a package of ordinances, resolutions and finance items at its May 21 meeting.
Ordinances: The board waived first readings and adopted Ordinance 2026‑36 (amending building contractor regulations) and Ordinance 2026‑37 (amending vacation rental and residential zoning provisions). Roll call votes recorded affirmative votes from trustees present.
Resolutions and appointments: The board adopted Resolution 2026‑R73 accepting the 2026–2029 strategic plan. It also passed Resolution 2026‑R74 to remove a member of the capital vision committee after the passing of Carmen Castro and adopted R75 and R76 appointing Ysef Muhammad and Molina Reinaga to village committees. Resolution 2026‑R77 affirmed the village’s support for local control over municipal housing authority decisions and expressed opposition to a state bill that would change local land‑use authority; trustees said copies would be sent to downstate legislators.
Finance: The board amended and then approved the May 8 payroll and May 21 accounts payable listing, increasing the total from $3,368,715.33 to $3,748,646.33 (an increase of $379,931). The amended total was approved by roll call.
Procedure: Consent agenda items (including multiple engineering and procurement approvals) were read into the record and approved. The Committee of the Whole subsequently met and moved the Planning & Zoning Commission’s positive recommendation on the Army Trail Exchange project to the village board for further consideration.
Ending: The meeting included community announcements, public comment on the Prologis project and a ceremony recognizing two police officers for life‑saving actions; the board adjourned with Memorial Day wishes.
