The Village of Riverside Board of Trustees regular meeting was held September 3, 2026. The board approved the consent agenda, including the voucher list, a cost-sharing memorandum of understanding with the Village of Northfield and Norwich Park District for multi-state information-sharing and cybersecurity services, and authorization for a $35,300 purchase order to Christopher B. Burke Engineering for professional services on the comprehensive sewer study update. The board also reviewed capital plan revisions: $45,000 for parks planning in FY2027, $25,000 annually for triangle restoration, $2,000 for a native landscaping program, and a revised FY2027 contribution of $13,856 for fire-station alerting. These were plan updates, not separate contract awards at this meeting.

In discussion of the facade improvement grant program, trustees expressed consensus to include support for the two existing nonconforming outdoor-dining barriers, with assistance potentially covering 100% of eligible costs but subject to the program’s $5,000-per-business lifetime cap; the proposed program allocation was $20,600. The meeting also included a presentation supporting consolidation of the two fire stations into a modern public-safety facility, with further public engagement planned; Williams Architects has been working on facility plans. The transcript ends during discussion of a sign variation for DAT Auto Service, so no final vote on that item is captured. The meeting also covered a suicide-prevention proclamation, community events, and the village website; no other procurement actions were identified.
