VII. Village Manager/Village Board/Village Clerk Comments
Trustee Bob Bachner, Chairperson of the Public Works & Environmental
Concerns Committee, commented on three items listed on the agenda
for Village Board approval this evening. The Village entered into
agreements with the Park District and School District #44 allowing their
employees use of the Village fueling facility. The Village has now also
entered into an agreement with the York Center Fire Protection District
Village of Lombard Page 2
Village Board of Trustees Minutes September 1, 2022
for their staff to also use the fueling facility. In the past York Center Fire
Protection District used public gas stations to fuel their apparatus, but
due to the size of the equipment, it is difficult to navigate the fire
apparatus at these facilities. To offset the cost of CAPA and
maintenance, the IGA between the Village and the three agencies
incorporates a $.10 per gallon surcharge. These costs were previously
paid entirely by the Village. The surcharges range from $325 to $1,500
per year which is still below retail market fuel costs. Through this
intergovernmental cooperation and agreements, the Village is helping to
lower the fuel cost to participating districts and the Village is achieving a
goal of the strategic plan of reducing operational costs.
Deputy Village Clerk Sheila York read the following announcements:
A big thank you to all of our sponsors, staff, residents and visitors who
came out for the 2022 season of Cruise Nights and Summer Concerts.
We look forward to seeing all of you in 2023.
The Village is seeking nominations for the 17th annual Senior of the Year
Awards, which recognizes outstanding seniors who volunteer or go
above and beyond to positively benefit the community. Nominations
must be received by 4:30 pm September 2nd.
The Village will be hosting its annual fireworks display on Sunday,
September 4th at approximately 8:20 pm at Madison Meadow Park due
to the cancellation of the July 4th event. Follow the Village’s Facebook
and Twitter pages for any updates.
In observance of the Labor Day holiday, Village offices will be closed on
Monday, September 5th. Offices will re-open at 8:30 am Tuesday,
September 6th.
The Lombard Police Department partnering with other law enforcement
agencies will continue the Labor Day safe driving campaign. “Drive
Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign focused on keeping our community
safe by stepping enforcement of impaired, unbuckled and distracted
drivers runs through September 6th.
In honor of the 21st anniversary of the September 11th, 2001 attacks on
our country, a Remembrance Ceremony will be held on Sunday,
September 11th at 9:00 am at the Public Safety Plaza at the Village
complex. The We Remember Blood Drive is scheduled for Tuesday,
September 13th from 8 am until 1pm at Yorktown and from 1:30p to 7p at
the First Church of Lombard, 220 S. Main Street. Be a hero, donate
blood. It saves lives.
