Summary

Village staff described a proposed roadway reconstruction for Chicago Avenue at 170th Street, including widening the pavement from the existing 27 feet to 34 feet and adding or improving sidewalks north toward the Sports Complex and west toward the Police Department. The stated goals are to keep trucks off the grass and improve pedestrian access.
The Committee of the Whole placed the project discussion on the March 3 Village Board agenda so the full board can review design details, funding sources and construction timing before any formal authorization.
