Roadway Resurfacing Project:  

On March 2, 2020, the Village Council passed Resolution 2020-40 approving the first 12 prioritized locations at a cost of $170,204.84, and the remaining funds for other locations throughout the Village as necessary. The project started in July and a total of 18 locations are nearing completion. The project scope included street resurfacing, pavement markings, striping placements and deletion of old pavement markings.
