Summary
Police Chief Pavini reported a second squad car is operational and three new hires are in training. Public Works Superintendent Jessica Ramirez reported annual hydrant checks, pole painting, and tree work. Trustee Teets announced Halloween (Oct. 31) and other events and Clerk Laura Cassidy-Hatchet confirmed a $1,000 donation from Wintrust Bank for Halloween candy.
Police Chief Pavini told the committee that the village’s second squad car is in service and that the department has hired three new employees plus a part-time records clerk; those new staff are currently in training and will be introduced to the board in the next month. Chief Pavini also reported that Officer Conley worked mutual aid during the Democratic Party Convention and that there were no incidents.
Public Works representative Jessica Ramirez reported completion of the annual fire-hydrant checks, including greasing nozzles and caps and testing water flow. Ramirez said crews painted light-pole bases on the east side of Mannheim Road, removed debris left by a tree company, and cut down a tree at 43rd and Division. Mayor Beniamino Mazzulla commended Superintendent Ramirez and said engineers and vendors had praised her work on infrastructure projects.
