McLean board reviews Motor Fuel Tax use for street repairs, questions engineer fees
Summary
Trustees discussed using Motor Fuel Tax funds and possible Illinois DOT assistance for street repairs and chip-seal work and raised whether engineering costs for repairs must be paid by the village.
The Village of McLean reviewed options for using Motor Fuel Tax funds to pay for street repairs and chip-seal work during its April 23 budget meeting. Treasurer Marcy Seeman was noted as checking whether the village would receive Illinois Department of Transportation funds that could offset local repair costs.
Clerk Teresa Isringhausen recorded discussion about whether the village is required to pay engineers for repair projects; the transcript notes the board debated paying engineering fees versus using available MFT or DOT monies. No final allocation or vote on a street-repair funding plan was taken at the meeting; trustees planned to revisit the question in a subsequent budget session.
