Summary

Downtown property owner Mel Workman was given council approval to hire an outside engineering/design firm (for example Milano & Grunloh) to design Neoga's downtown, contingent that it not interfere with a pending grant; motion passed 4‑0.

Mel Workman presented maps comparing Neoga’s downtown to Manteno and asked the council for permission to hire an outside engineering and design firm to prepare a downtown plan. Workman cited Manteno as a model and provided the council a map for review.

Commissioner Edwards moved to approve Workman hiring an engineer provided it would not interfere with a grant application Neoga has pending; Commissioner Williams seconded. The council voted unanimously to approve the request, 4‑0. The approval allows Workman to contract with an outside firm (Workman mentioned Milano & Grunloh as an example) to develop design plans for the downtown area.
