Burlington Park Pavilion Project Moves Forward with Contract Award Recommendation
The Hinsel Board of Trustees considered awarding a construction contract for the Burlington Park Pavilion project. After initial bids were rejected due to exceeding the budget, staff worked with contractors to value-engineer the project. The current recommendation is to award the contract to Dave Knight Homes for $341,121.94. The project is notable for being entirely privately funded through community donations, with no village tax dollars used for construction. Dave Knight Homes, a local builder, has contributed $85,000 in-kind, and a significant donation from James Buchard of $100,000 has also been secured, along with further contributions from other residents and businesses. The design, by local architect Michael Abraham, is modeled after the Memorial Building. Construction is anticipated to begin in late August following the Uniquely Thursday event series. A groundbreaking ceremony is scheduled for July 4th.
Hinsdale Approves New Solid Waste and Recycling Contract with Flood Brothers
The Hinsel Board of Trustees approved a new three-year contract for solid waste, recycling, and landscape waste collection and disposal. After evaluating five proposals, staff recommended Flood Brothers of Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois, over the current provider, Republic Services. Flood Brothers' proposal is approximately 2% less expensive over the contract term while offering identical service levels. Key benefits include a local customer service center and positive references from other municipalities. The transition plan, starting in mid-July with resident communication and account setup, aims for a seamless switch by November 1st, with Flood Brothers handling cart deployment and Republic's cart removal. The contract includes options for residents to customize their cart size and set up autopay, with provisions for senior citizens to receive assistance.
Hinsdale Reports Strong Financial Position for 2025
The Hinsel Board of Trustees reviewed and accepted the village's 2025 annual financial report. The report, finalized after receiving the auditor's clean opinion, indicated that revenues exceeded budgeted amounts by $3.6 million and expenses were under budget by $2.1 million. The village maintains a fund balance exceeding 25% of operating expenses, a level preferred by credit rating agencies. Minor adjustments were made to footnotes and past adjustments related to the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund (IMRF). The village intends to submit the report for a certificate of achievement in financial reporting.
