Robbins moves water payments to police department; supervisor seeks OSHA equipment and public works readied for grass cutting

At the April 23 meeting the Village of Robbins told residents that water-bill payments and permits will be processed at the police department (first floor) during regular business hours, 9 a.m.–3 p.m., Monday through Friday. The minutes also note that residents can continue to pay bills via Epay or by mail and that, to report a water-main break, they should text 708-270-8180 with their name and address rather than calling.

During standing-committee reports, Water Supervisor Emani presented a list of equipment and supplies the water department needs, noting several items are required to meet OSHA standards. Trustee Michael Collier Sr. reported a public-works equipment-repair update from Mr. Stewart aimed at resuming grass cutting across village properties.

Trustees also announced a back-to-school fundraiser planned for May 4 at the community center and asked for volunteers and donations; a volunteer meeting is scheduled for that morning at 10 a.m. The minutes additionally said the Robbins Fire Department will assist residents with free smoke-detector installation and that residents should contact the building department or fire department for help.

The board framed these items as operational updates; where the minutes record no formal vote, the matters were presented for information and administrative follow-up.
