Village attorney reports proposed $50,000 settlement; board moves to enter executive session
Summary
The village attorney told trustees of a proposed $50,000 settlement with CRP Sanitation related to damage to a traffic signal; the board then voted to move into executive session to discuss litigation, personnel and property matters.
The village attorney briefed the trustees on a pending matter against CRP Sanitation and a proposed settlement.
Counsel (Speaker 9) said the settlement would resolve a claim for $50,000 tied to damage at the North Berry and Halsted Avenue intersection; because the matter is pending litigation the attorney declined to discuss details in public.
After business concluded, the chair moved to enter executive session under the Public Officers Law for three topics: current litigation involving the village, matters leading to the employment of certain persons, and proposed acquisition, sale or lease of real property where publicity would affect value. The motion was seconded and trustees agreed to enter executive session.
What happens next: the board entered executive session to discuss the listed items; no further public discussion or vote on the settlement was recorded in the public transcript.
