10.5.2026 - Village of Orland Park - Board of Trustees Meeting

The Village of Orland Park Board of Trustees meeting was held October 6, 2026 (the meeting title references 10.5.2026). Trustees unanimously approved accounts payable of $7,137,408.91 for September 22–October 5, and approved consent-agenda items that included property and casualty insurance services, a storm-basin stewardship change order, shoreline-restoration design engineering, a wetland-mitigation credit study, a water-tank replacement project, a sludge-pump installation, utility and downtown utility-relocation work, landscape architecture services, and a Halloran and Yauch Inc. change order. The roof-replacement bid was removed from the consent agenda so staff could seek additional proposals. No dollar amounts were stated for those consent items in the transcript.

The board unanimously approved two additional contract awards: Julius Parker Communications for public information officer support under RFP 26-052, capped at $49,050 with hourly rates of $250–$385, and Strategia Consulting for as-needed PIO consulting at a maximum hourly rate of $310; and Kinley Horn and Associates Inc. for villagewide neighborhood traffic-safety studies and a traffic-calming manual, not to exceed $208,042. Staff said the traffic-study contract would require a budget amendment and take about six to eight months. Trustees also unanimously approved a $28,000 design-engineering contract with Valdez Engineering Company for village-hall green-space drainage. A resident raised concerns about delays on the 143rd Street and Humphrey Drive project, and a Moraine Valley Community College representative spoke in support of a separate $115 million bond referendum; neither was presented as a village procurement action.
