Stan Rickard gave a brief history of the sidewalk policy and the proposed "Fill the Gap" |
|
program. Looking at figure 2, if there was to be a special assessment for sidewalk that |
|
would be the program. Dave Dratnol-Fill the Gap would cost approximately |
|
$150,000-$200,000. John Kaforski-Doesn't feel that we should participate in this. |
|
Stephen Preins-The very most we should do is look at the sidewalks when construction |
|
projects are done. John Kaforski-If a person really wants a sidewalk they could do it |
|
under the 50/50 program. John Kaforski-We should stay with 50/50 but look into low |
|
interest loans with a local bank. Maybe we could put something out in the Pride. People |
|
would be more enticed to do it this way. Stephen Preins-We spend all this money trying |
|
to improve things in the Village but we have sidewalks that are bad. Would like to |
|
suggest that the village should take care of these sidewalks. |
|
It was moved by Preins, seconded by Kaforski, that the sidewalk program |
|
remain as is and staff look into a low interest rate loan program to be included in |
|
the sidewalk policy. The motion carried by the following vote: |
Aye:
Hallbeck, Kaforski, Preins and Arnold

Stan Rickard reviewed the memo regarding the watermain addition and the |
|
corresponding work. The way this was settled was reasonable for both parties. To date |
|
Ganna has agreed to the $175,000. At the end of the project if they're not happy they |
|
can file an arbitration with IDOT. |
|
It was moved by Hallbeck, seconded by Preins, that this matter be recommended |
|
to the Board of Trustees for approval. The motion carried by the following vote: |
Aye:
Hallbeck, Kaforski, Preins and Arnold
