Crainville board opts to split Marion Street resurfacing over two years to preserve MFT funds
Summary
PSC presented two Motor Fuel Tax (MFT) options for Marion Street resurfacing; the board chose a two-year plan (Option 2) to avoid depleting the village's MFT balance and to divide the General Fund contribution across two fiscal years.
PSC Engineering presented two Motor Fuel Tax budget options for the 2026–2027 fiscal year to continue resurfacing and repairs on Marion Street. Potts, representing PSC, explained that Option 1 would complete all repairs in 2026–2027 but would nearly deplete the village's MFT account. Option 2 would split the project over two years and preserve a larger MFT balance.
The board decided to proceed with Option 2, accepting that a portion of the total road repair cost will come from the Village General Fund but that this General Fund portion will be spread over two years. The choice was presented during the PSC Engineering Report and recorded in the meeting minutes; no formal motion is recorded in the minutes for the selection beyond the board's decision to proceed with Option 2.
The board did not record specific dollar amounts for the Marion Street work in the minutes beyond the funding approach. Follow-up staff work will be required to produce detailed cost estimates and a schedule for the two-year resurfacing plan.
