The Elmwood Park Board of Trustees voted unanimously April 6 to approve a consent agenda covering a wide range of routine and project-related items, including the payment of $5,142,294.06 in March bills and vouchers.
The packet presented a line-item breakdown showing $1,512,578.06 charged to the General Fund and $763,744.37 to the Water Fund, among other fund allocations. Trustee Angelo J. Lollino moved the consent agenda and Trustee Bina Conte seconded; all trustees present voted "Aye." The consent package bundled ordinances and resolutions on procurement, grant ratification and contract amendments for ongoing projects including the new Village Hall conversion and other operational needs.
Major items included an ordinance to accept a proposal from Midwest Meter, Inc. for the purchase of water meters, an ordinance authorizing a ten-year agreement with Axon Enterprise, Inc. for police body cameras and tasers, ratification of a State OSLAD grant for Kiddie Corral playground improvements, and multiple change orders related to demolition at the former First Security Bank building being converted to Village Hall. The meeting packet listed the consent agenda items in full for the public record and the clerk read the motions before the roll-call vote.
The unanimous vote closed the consent agenda quickly; no trustee registered a nay or absence on the roll call. The board then moved on to communications and routine announcements before adjourning at 6:25 p.m.
