2026-10-26 Village of Villa Park Board Meeting

The Village of Villa Park Board of Trustees meeting (October 26, 2026, according to the meeting title and proceedings) included several capital and purchasing matters. The board approved the consent agenda, including a $54,878.74 bill listing, final change order No. 1 to the M&J Asphalt Paving Company contract, and an agreement with Corrective Asphalt Materials LLC for the 2026 pavement rejuvenation program; the transcript’s stated agreement amount appears garbled. Trustees also approved $791,800 in Series 2026B general obligation limited-tax bonds: about $496,750 for payments on existing 2017 and 2022 debt, $275,050 for capital projects, and $20,000 for issuance costs. The bonds were sold to Hinsdale Bank and Trust at a reported 4.5% rate, compared with 3.13% in 2025. The board authorized RC Wegman Construction Company for only the $8,000 phase-one preconstruction and schematic-design work for the Fire Station 82 renovation and addition; later design, bidding, construction, and any guaranteed maximum price require further board approval.

The board approved zoning changes establishing rules for mobile food vendors and allowing food-truck courts by special use. Staff said licenses will not be issued until administrative arrangements are in place and expects to bring a separate food-and-beverage tax amendment to the board within about a month. The board also approved a resolution setting 2027 swimming-pool fees, with no amount stated in the transcript, and received the proposed 2027 budget, with further discussions scheduled. A personal vehicle repair and maintenance facility at 231 East North Avenue was approved for planned development, with a projected spring 2027 groundbreaking. No contract award or procurement decision was identified in the discussion of that project.
