(DISTRICTS - ALL). Goldsmith reviewed the memo and recommendations from staff to amend the Alley Maintenance Program. Goldsmith and Dratnol reviewed the cost estimates together and agreed that some of the money from the Asphalt Paving & Patching Program could be allocated towards an Alley Maintenance & Improvement Program. Already talked with Waste Management about rerouting their trucks to curbside and out of the alleys. They are more than happy to do this. Mahal: do we need to put in the exceptions of the commercial area alleys? Goldsmith: can change the policy to read the way that we want it to - can cover this issue. Discussion ensued regarding some of the specific alleys. Kaforski: need to make sure that access is not cut off to any businesses and also address what needs to be vacated . Goldsmith: the two alleys that are already scheduled for repairs are alley number 1 and alley number 3. Mahal: would like to see us address all of the alleys at one time. If we are going to update this, I Village of Lombard Page 1 Public Works Committee Minutes February 12, 2013 think that we should make sure that we know what is going on with each alley on the map. Goldsmith: staff will meet with Community Development regarding the status and notices that need to go out to any of the alleys. This is not an Ordinance - this is a Village Board Policy. Kaforski: so basically what the committee wants is for staff to come back to the committee and let us know about all of the alleys. Arnold: do any of the alleys have ComEd lights in them and is this something that we want to address? Dratnol: number 6 in particular is a grass area. Goldsmith: will go back and look at the areas that the committee brought up and address the issues. (Numbers 6, 13, 15, 16) Will also bring something back regarding Waste Management changes. 130065 Finley Road Pavement Rehabilitation, Phase 1, Change Order No. 3 Resolution authorizing an increase to the contract with D Construction in the amount of $107,768.62 for additional items primarily topsoil and sod for the parkways, and time and materials billings related to construction.

Looking at putting together some sort of program to address signs and lane markings - trying to get some funding for this type of a program.
