On June 26, the Village Board passed a resolution to hire the firm of Road Work Ahead who submitted the lowest bid at $824,841.15 for the Base Project and $482,147.58 for the "Add Alternates" for an all in total project cost of $1,306,988.73.
On March 6, 2012, the Village Board passed a resolution to authorize their engineers, Dvirka and Bartilucci, to design and prepare a bid document for the 2012 Road Improvement Project, scheduled to begin this summer. The cost of this engineering work will be $119,360 ($82,640 for the base project, and $36,720 for the additional alternates).
The Village secured a AA Stable rating from Standard and Poors for the $1,300,000 in Road Improvement Bonds which enabled them to obtain a effective borrowing rate of 1.84% for the 13 years they will be outstanding

Village purchase new Street Sweeper
Allianz 4000
Allianz mechanical broom sweeper
From the modern, comfortable and well appointed operator's cab, to the toughest and most rugged mechanical sweeping system ever built, the 4000 is designed to take on the worst of the worst sweeping conditions such as construction site clean up, state highway sweeping, and road resurfacing including millings, heavy sand and chip seal.
The 4000 is a hydrostatic drive machine with a wealth of pure, raw power. This
sweeper is one of the only that has ever passed the formidable California
Department of Transportation sweeper acceptance test where it was required to
sweep up heavy sand at the rate of three tons per minute! That's one ton of sand
every twenty seconds! That's a lot of sand. That's why Caltrans now owns a fleet
of more than one hundred and fifty 4000 sweepers.
The purchase price is $193,395
