Board of Trustees Meeting Reports

Landscape waste collection update. Groot had planned to place a four-bag limit on the number of unstickered 30-gallon bags yard waste seasonal subscribers could place out each week (April-November). However, feedback from customers indicated some concern that this would not be adequate during the leaf-fall season. In response, the Village worked with Groot and was able to negotiate unlimited unstickered bags during November.

Regarding options to provide landscaping around the Video Ready Access Devices ("VRAD") installations necessary for implementation of AT&T's Project Lightspeed (U-Verse). The Board supported the staff recommendation to have AT&T provide the landscaping by contracting with a landscaper to design and install screening around VRADs. AT&T will be responsible for the first three waterings, but any future maintenance will be the responsibility of the adjacent property owner. The extent of the screening needed will be detetmined by a site visit.
