South Roxana OKs Halloween spending and authorizes canopy purchase for events
Summary
The village authorized up to $1,800 for Halloween event supplies and approved a custom 10'x10' canopy tent purchase not to exceed $1,500; the canopy vote passed 4-1 with Trustee Ward Wood opposed.
The South Roxana village board approved funding for upcoming community events during its Sept. 2 meeting. The board approved Halloween event expenditures (candy and related supplies) not to exceed $1,800 on a unanimous vote.
The board also authorized the purchase of a custom 10'x10' canopy tent for community events with a not-to-exceed price of $1,500; that motion passed on a 4-1 roll-call vote with Trustee Ward Wood recorded as opposed.
Why it matters: the approvals allow village staff to purchase supplies and basic event infrastructure for community programming; the recorded opposition on the canopy purchase signals at least one trustee’s reservation about that procurement.
