Appointed Officials in Attendance: |
Acting Director of Public Works John Burg |

Deputy Village Clerk Barbara Johnson |
It was moved by Blakeslee, seconded by Kaforski, to approve. The motion |
carried by a voice vote |
Chairperson Sebby noted that some pending items such as traffic calming, |
improvements to West Wilson, the street lighting project and as directed this evening, |
sidewalk programs will be addressed at the March meeting. |
David Arnold commented on the traffic calming CD they received and said that he would |
like to see some device at Finley and Wilson, a very congested area. He added that as |
long as improvments are going to be done there, traffic calming could be done at the |
same time. |
Dan Mahal suggested that traffic calming be done at Main and the Prairie Path as well |
as at Westmore/Meyers and the Prairie Path. Some discussion ensued regarding the |
fact those were the only two four lane roads one had to cross while on the Path. |
Trustee Sebby mentioned that perhaps there are test programs out there that would |
eliminate the Village having to fund the traffic calming. |
John Burg suggested that since the Committee of the Whole and Public Works |
Committee meeting was held previously, the subject of traffic calming be discussed at |
the next meeting. |
H. FY 2004 Dust Control Program Final Change Order #1 (Resolution) |
Resolution authorizing Final Balancing Change Order No. 1 to the contract with Boecker |
Road Maintenance reflecting a $32,250 decrease due to the termination of the contract. |
(DISTRICT ALL) |
David Dratnol explained that this is really a matter of paper work to close out a |
terminated contract. |
It was moved by Arnold, seconded by Mahal, that this matter be approved. The |
motion carried by a voice vote |
Enactment No: Resolution 88-04 |
J. Prairie Path Lighting - Change Order No. 1 (Resolution) |
Resolution approving Change Order No. 1 to the contract with Aldridge Electric, Inc. in |
the amount of $19,749.50 for work associated with the Prairie Path Lighting project. |
(DISTRICTS #1 & #5) |
Mr. Dratnol explained the increase in amounts, saying that it represents as-measured |
quantities of directional boring, conduit pushed in place, and a deduct for unit duct |
length. It also adds four poles, and additional house side shields which would have |
been added if residents wanted, but they decided that they would include them in the |
contract. |
It was moved by Arnold, seconded by Blakeslee, that this matter be approved. |
The motion carried by a voice vote |
Enactment No: Resolution 90-04 |
N. Lombard Hills - East (Phase IV) (Resolution) |
Resolution approving Final Balancing Change Order No. 2 to the contract with R. W. |
Dunteman Company reflecting a decrease of $51,321.27 for the total quantities |
associated with the Lombard Hills - East (Phase IV) project. (DISTRICT #4) |
Mr. Dratnol said that the increases where due to small added handholes and some |
splicing that needed to be done. Some of the lighting had to be temporarily spliced into |
new lighting. He said that conduit had to be pushed under Goebel and that cost had |
been omitted from the original contract. |
Trustee Sebby questioned whether there was any way to have avoided the handholes |
and Dratnol explained that either the handholes had to be used or the wiring rerouted |
due to the small poles in the area. He further explained that these poles are smaller |
than at major intersections. |
Dan Mahal questioned the protective coating. Mr. Dratnol explained that it is usually |
included in contracts to prevent salt damage. |
It was moved by Mahal, seconded by Frerichs, that this matter be approved. The |
motion carried by a voice vote |
Enactment No: Resolution 92-04 |
Art Frerichs complimented Green Horizon and the work that they do with sidewalks. |
John Burg said that sidewalks were actually done by a different company and he would |
pass these comments on. There was some discussion of snow removal on business |
and residential sidewalks Trustee Sebby said that he will talk to Community |
Development Director David Hulseberg and have Code Enforcement observe and write |
violations. |
