Board approves fireworks contract for 2025 centennial, contingent on display detail
Summary
Trustees approved Resolution 24-57 to contract RKM Fireworks Inc. for the 2025 centennial fireworks display after amending approval to require submission of the final page showing display details; discussion referenced an approximate cost of $8,500.
Trustee (speaker 1) introduced Resolution 24-57 to authorize a fireworks-display service agreement with RKM Fireworks Inc. for the village's 2025 centennial event.
Several trustees raised concerns that the packet did not include the final detail page that describes what the village is purchasing (duration, number counts or display components). Trustee (speaker 7) asked for clarity on duration and exact content. Trustee (speaker 1) amended the motion to approve the resolution contingent upon receipt of the final page of the agreement showing the display. The board approved the amendment and then the main motion; the transcript records the passage as "Motion passes 7 14." During discussion a trustee referenced a likely price of about $8,500 for the display.
Clerk Sandy Maasen noted the contract in the packet lacked the typical page that lists the display components that the board normally receives for July 3 events; the amendment requires that missing page be produced before the contract is considered final.
