Residents press board on potholes; mayor says village has applied for two $1.5M road grants
Summary
A resident asked the board to repair potholes on Crystal Lane; Mayor William Joyce said the village has applied for two $1.5 million grants for local roads, that Kings Road is underfunded and IDOT has not released funds for repairs.
Resident Robert Parker told the board there are numerous potholes on Crystal Lane leading to Richton Road and asked whether the village could address them. Parker framed the concern as both a water and roadway issue that affects local travel.
Mayor William Joyce responded that "currently the Village of Steger has applied for two 1.5 million dollar grants to work on local roads," said Kings Road is currently funded but underfunded, and that IDOT had not released funds for repairs; he added the village would inspect potholes this week but that full resurfacing depends on grant timing. No timetable for resurfacing was given during the meeting.
