Chicago Ridge board records vendor payments, authorizes multiple contract expenditures

At its May 19 meeting the Village of Chicago Ridge Board approved payment of bills and made several vendor invoices a matter of record, including legal, engineering, auditing and utility-contract charges.

The minutes list specific vendor amounts presented for approval: Kasperek ($1,200 for audit; $7,734.75 for consulting), Ancel Glink ($240 for legal services), Burke (101st & Ridgeland $1,080; Zayo $5,665; T&M May $28,915.01; 103rd & Harlem $9,334.25), and National Power ($35,702 for sewer televising). Trustees voted to approve payment of these items and to make the minutes of the April 23, 2026 regular meeting and a pending-projects status report a matter of record.

Trustee Siegel moved and Trustee Lenz seconded the approval to pay the listed bills; the motion passed on roll call without recorded opposition in the minutes for that item. The meeting packet and SUR/Board-approved lists (multiple dates) were referenced as supporting documentation in the minutes.

The minutes do not include further contract details, vendor scopes beyond short descriptors, or staff motions to change scopes; any contract amendments or procurement follow-ups are not recorded in these minutes.
