Steger reports water-tower repairs, truck maintenance and upcoming Halloween events
Summary
Village engineer said painting of the water tower will continue after internal damage is repaired and is expected to finish before Halloween; public works reported two water-main breaks and ongoing plow-truck repairs, and the Community Center confirmed Halloween and youth programs.
The Village Engineer reported a two-day stoppage in water-tower painting after internal damage was found; the issue was being addressed and painting was reported to be on track to finish before Halloween. Assistant Superintendent Roy Stone said the village had two water-main breaks since the last meeting and that four plow/salt trucks need work; one truck is ready for winter operations and crews continue repairs on the remaining three.
Stone also noted work at two railroad crossings (31st and 35th Street) requiring sign changes and refreshed pavement markings to remain in compliance with the Train Quiet Zone. Community Center Director Christine Meyer said preparations for the Halloween Party (Oct. 25) were proceeding, with programs and judges lined up; she asked for power cords to complete setup.
The minutes record no estimated repair costs for the water tower or exact timelines for finishing truck repairs; they do record community outreach activities from the fire and police departments.
