Trustees flag pavement height, quality and holdback concerns in village road program
Summary
During the June 16 meeting trustees discussed areas where new pavement is "taller than the existing curb in several areas," liability concerns, and possible remedies; a local contractor urged review of holdbacks tied to the road program.
Trustees and staff spent part of the June 16 meeting reviewing technical problems arising in the village's road program, noting areas where the new pavement "is taller than the existing curb in several areas" and where that height differential could create liability or drainage issues.
Engineering staff (engineer excused) provided a written report and trustees discussed potential fixes and additional solutions. Ray Braden, a local contractor who spoke during public comment, urged the board to "examine the purpose of holdbacks on construction projects in relation to the 2025 road program issues." No formal changes to contract terms or holdbacks were approved at the meeting; trustees directed staff to continue investigating remedies.
