Village to Auction Surplus 2003 MacLander Trailer
The Board of Trustees approved Resolution 2026-71, authorizing the public auction of surplus property: a 2003 MacLander trailer from the Public Works Department. The trailer was used to transport the village's asphalt roller. With the acquisition of two new trailers accompanying the mini excavator and skid steer purchases, this trailer is no longer needed. The item was unanimously recommended for approval by the Public Services Committee.
Chris Brothers Asphalt Awarded 2026 Street Rehabilitation Program Bid
The Board of Trustees approved Resolution 2026-72, accepting the lowest bid of $884,899.06 from Chris Brothers Asphalt for the 2026 street rehabilitation program. Five bids were received, all under the engineer's estimate. TWM reviewed the bids and found Chris Brothers to be a responsible bidder. The project will involve rehabilitating Village Drive, Billing Circle Drive, Peachtree Lane, and a portion of Collinsville Street with new asphalt surfaces, curb and gutter, and some culvert upgrades. Some previously withdrawn items (oil and chip roadways in the southwest corner, referred to as Cottonwood 5) may be added back through a future change order.
