Committee approves lidar purchase; chief reports multiple speed citations
Summary
Trustees approved forwarding a $1,859.37 purchase for a handheld lidar radar unit (with $1,750 reimbursed by the FY26 IDOT STEP Grant). Chief Todd Stockburger reported multiple speed-related citations and other public-safety updates.
The Committee of the Whole voted to forward to the Village Board a request to purchase one handheld lidar radar unit from Stalker Radar Applied Concepts, Inc. at a cost of $1,859.37 from the police equipment line item (5375); $1,750 of that cost is reimbursable through the FY26 IDOT STEP Grant. The motion was introduced by Village President David Schroeder, moved by Trustee Carl Wedig, and seconded by Trustee Brandi Pearse; the committee vote was 6-0-1.
Chief Todd Stockburger provided the department’s activity update, listing recent traffic enforcement totals: '6 citations were cited for 25 over the speed limit,' '6 citations were cited 30 over the speed limit,' and '1 citation cited for 66 miles over speed limit.' He also updated the committee on a bulletproof vest grant, coordination with mall staff for the holiday season, and the Annual First Responder Dinner held last Thursday at Fire Station One.
