Oct 6, 2025

The board approved a $5,000 contract with Safe Step Safe Sidewalk Solutions to prioritize dangerous sidewalk lips and approved a $1,500 fix for the sidewalk by the Legion building; public works will plan potential sidewalk removals and replacements.

The full story

Director of Public Works Leitzinger presented the Safe Step sidewalk repair program used by nearby communities and recommended the village commit $5,000 to grind and fix the most hazardous sidewalk lips; the board approved hiring Safe Step for $5,000 to perform work in 2026. Leitzinger also brought quotes for localized fixes: $1,500 to repair a crack near the Legion building (approved) and a $3,075 quote to repair a cracked storm drain at BCN and Pleasant Street (the storm‑drain quote may change after in‑ground inspection).
