5/21/25 Village Residents East of Union Pacific Railroad Tracks
Due to a hit water main on Monday 5/19/25 we we’re forced to shut down service east of the Union Pacific Railroad tracks. Repairs have been completed and the necessary flushing and purification steps have also been completed. Water samples have been confirmed to be free of coliform bacteria by a certified laboratory. You may return to normal use of your water service. We apologize for the inconvenience.
The State of Illinois (IEPA) requires all water systems to have and maintain an effective cross-connection control program. A component of the program is a comprehensive survey of the water system. Please complete the survey by clicking the link below. It takes less than 5 minutes to complete. Thank You
Laundromat Building – Still almost there! Michael Parrish is still sending the paperwork off to get this property deeded over to the Village. Still waiting on the paperwork.
Parking Lot on 2nd Ave. – I spoke with Jerry Hoekstra about our counter offer after the last meeting. He was going to get back with me. Have not heard anything just yet.
Ralph Wilkening Property – I spoke with Jacky Wilkening last month and told her we would agree to purchase this property in exchange for the forgiveness of their water bill that was $1500.00. Our next step is to get a written agreement in place for this transaction.
Apartment Rental Ordinance – I’ll have more on this next month.
