Resident urges third-party audit, alleges contractor failed specs on Fifth Street work
Summary
Greg Clucky urged the board to reopen a Fifth Street reconstruction decision and request a third-party audit, alleging curb work and grass establishment failed to meet contract specifications and that promised reconstruction was reduced to resurfacing.
Resident Greg Clucky urged trustees to investigate work on Fifth Street, asserting that a 2023 road study recommended reconstruction but the village planned only resurfacing in 2026. He told the board that curbs placed in the project did not match existing curb profiles, that the curb was flat so stormwater does not flow as specified, and that contract requirements for establishment watering and removal of erosion-control mesh were not met.
"We were promised that they would do Fifth Street in 2026... In 2026, we discovered that they weren't going to reconstruct the road. They were only going to resurface it," Greg Clucky said, and later asked, "Why don't we call in a third party to audit this account?" He said he and other residents submitted photographs and contract evidence to the village and asked the board to review the materials. Board members acknowledged receipt of the complaint but did not announce a decision at the meeting.
