Resident flags alleged unpermitted fill and bus storage in floodplain; village promises action
Summary
A petitioner told trustees that buses and fill were placed in a floodplain without a permit; village staff said the site is on their radar and that they will pursue a comprehensive remedy but did not provide enforcement details at the meeting.
A resident (Nate Sharp) presented a petition from about 90 property owners and raised two issues: the status of the Clinton Avenue bridge project and an allegation that buses and dirt were placed in a floodplain at a local site without permits. "They cleared out that hole on a on flood plain with no permit," the resident said, and asked whether fines had been issued.
Village staff acknowledged the complaint, described the site as a recognized problem and said the village will take "comprehensive action" but declined to outline enforcement specifics in public because the situation could become contentious. Staff encouraged the resident to speak with the deputy mayor and said the village will work to resolve the issue and coordinate next steps with enforcement partners.
