The City of Aurora, Illinois Infrastructure and Technology Committee met on November 9, 2026. Members approved a $234,676.94 purchase of an electric fleet service truck from Lipco Equipment Sales through Sourcewell, funded by the Driving Cleaner Illinois grant. They also approved a $63,290 purchase of a 75-horsepower submersible well motor for the Water Production Division and an annual contract award for water-treatment process chemicals, with recommended low bidders and some two-year arrangements including an optional second year. The chemical vendors and individual award amounts were not discernible in the transcript.

The committee discussed a change order for the Mastodon Lake dredging project to haul dredged material that cannot remain at the drying site; the reported revised project total was approximately $5.248 million, including a $648,000 increase. Staff said remaining contingency funds would be used, and that the change would not affect the grant or funds reserved for other projects. The committee also considered a demolition contract for a city-owned property: the project had received 10 bids and included removal of the structure, concrete pavement, and sanitary service line, but the vendor, amount, and any vote were not clear in the transcript. Staff said the cleared site would be left as gravel for now, with future use and any redevelopment or environmental work still undetermined.
