Trustees Extend SAFEbuilt Contract, Approve Baxter & Woodman Engineering Agreement

Village of Wadsworth Board of Trustees · July 7, 2026

Summary

The board approved a one-year extension of the professional services agreement with SAFEbuilt Illinois, LLC to continue code-enforcement services and approved a Baxter & Woodman general engineering services proposal not to exceed $10,000 for FY 2026–27.

The board voted to extend and modify two professional services agreements on July 7.

Trustee Mildred Corder moved, seconded by Trustee Robert Hayden, to approve a one-year extension of the professional services agreement with SAFEbuilt Illinois, LLC and to add as-needed code-enforcement services; the roll call vote was unanimous. Separately, trustees approved a Baxter & Woodman proposal for FY 2026–27 general engineering services not to exceed $10,000 after Trustee Ben Dolan moved and Trustee Wade Goff seconded the motion.

Why it matters: the SAFEbuilt extension secures continuity for code-enforcement operations at a time when residents raised concerns about enforcement procedures during public comment; the Baxter & Woodman agreement ensures on-call engineering support for village projects. Both votes were unanimous, indicating broad board support for continuing external professional services.

Next steps: staff will finalize contract-extension documentation for SAFEbuilt and execute the Baxter & Woodman agreement under the approved not-to-exceed cap.
