Mayor Brandt stated the contract will be completed in approximately 40 days which means landscaping and lighting will be completed by late May, weather permitting. Mayor Brandt added that the plan is being funded via a grant, and the Village is only paying for 20% of the cost of the project. She noted the Village can include more plantings once the project is complete.
Village Manager Burke noted staff distributed project scope and plans to the Board. Village Manager Burke noted staff has received various inquiries and generally positive feedback has been received.
A conversation regarding the current plantings and feedback followed.
Trustee Hancock noted concern with not enough shade of the telephone poles between the bike path and Olde Half Day Road; what gets planted today may not be sizeable enough and the Village will have to put in additional plantings to provide more shade. Trustee Hancock noted the desire to have some separation and shading from the path and telephone poles. Trustee Feldman echoed Trustee Hancock’s concerns. Village Manager Burke suggested waiting for consideration of additional plantings until the project landscaping is installed.
Public Works Director Woodbury suggested meeting with his contact at IDOT once the project has been completed and has a chance for growth to see what possibilities they can provide to screen the utility poles and provide additional plantings.
There was a consensus of the Board to revisit the site once the project is completed.
