New Business
Discussion & necessary action re: placement of “No Parking” signs along Oakwood Road.
Administrator Green introduced this item, which originated from the Parks Committee. With the
installation of the new baseball diamond, residents along Oakwood Road have seen increased on-
street parking and have requested “No Parking” signs be installed on both sides of the street. Green
noted that planned park improvement projects include expanded parking near the baseball diamond,
which should resolve overflow parking needs in the longer term.
Motion by Committee Chair Moonen , second by Eberle, to refer the matter to the Village Board for
consideration of a possible ordinance establishing no parking along Oakwood Road . Motion carried
unanimously.
DPW request for replacement Grapple Rake.
DPW Director Wilichowski presented a request to re place the department’s damaged loader pallet
forks with a grapple rake attachment. The existing pallet fork lost a tine during winter grinding
operations and replacement parts are no longer available from the manufacturer. This grapple rake
could save hours of grinder time annually and eliminates the need to rent an additional loader during
grinding operations. Administrator Green noted that current road projects are under budget and could
possibly fund this purchase.
Motion by Eberle, second by Plese, to recommend Village Board approval of the purchase of a Werk -
Brau 108” Grapple Rake at a cost not to exceed $26,000, funded from road projects account . Motion
carried unanimously.
DPW request for replacement Dump Body for 2005 Sterling patrol truck.
DPW Director Wilichowski presented a request to replace the dump body on the department’s 2005
Sterling patrol truck. The hoist connection point of the existing body frame has been compromised by
rust, creating a visible deformation under load that presents a safety hazard, particularly durin g
salting operations when the box needs to be raised. A new steel dump body would allow the Sterling
to serve as a dependable backup unit for an additional five to eight years. Two quotes were obtained
from Burke and Brake & Equipment with both quotes coming in under $25,000. These quotes were from
February and will need to be updated.
Motion by Eberle, second by Beal, to recommend to the Village Board the purchase of a replacement
steel dump body for the Sterling truck as outlined in the May 27 th, 2026 DPW Director memo, without a
capped dollar amount pending an updated quote. Motion carried unanimously.
Discussion & necessary action re: purchase of mini excavator with monies from stormwater fund.
Administrator Green presented this item regarding the purchase of a mini excavator with funds to
come from the stormwater fund. DPW Director Wilichowski and the Parks department intend to demo
several mowers and related equipment before returning with specific purchase recommendations.

The committee expressed general support but preferred to defer action until specific quotes and
equipment recommendations were available.
Unfinished Business
Discussion & necessary action re: Willow Springs Flow Meter quote from Next Electric.
Engineer Neitzel addressed this item above in his report. The next step is to complete the We Energies
service application and submit it back. No action was taken.
Discussion & necessary action re: Richmond School Lift Station Pump Repair/Replacement.
Engineer Neitzel presented quotes from Brabazon for the pump that failed at the Richmond Lift Station,
previously discussed in concept but returned for formal action. The repair cost was quoted at $2,145,
and a replacement quote of $5,500. The committee agreed that the Richmond cost-share agreement
should be reviewed and that it should be added to next month’s agenda.
Motion by Mueller, second by Beal, to recommend to the Village Board approval of the repair of the
Richmond School Lift Station pump at a cost not to exceed $2,145. Motion carried unanimously.
Items to be Placed on a Future Agenda
Clerk Cappozzo reviewed the remaining topics coming back to the Committee next month. Member
Eberle requested a discussion on the stormwater fund.
