Summary

Benton Engineering told the Stronghurst board that grant paperwork has been submitted to USDA and the village is awaiting the attorney's signature; bids are expected to be posted for 30 days with a special meeting planned for selection and a four-month completion target excluding a backordered generator.

Doug of Benton Engineering updated the board on the village's USDA-funded water project, saying engineers have submitted required materials to the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the next administrative step is the village attorney's signature on agreement documents.

Doug told the board they are "just waiting on Attorney Wallace to do her part and sign the agreements," and estimated that bid documents will be posted with a 30-day bid window. The board plans a special meeting at the end of that 30-day period to evaluate bids. Doug said the contractor completion timeline aims for about four months after award but noted the project's generator is on backorder and could delay that component.
