Village President's Report
- CHARACTER COUNTS! in Glenview Annual Poster Contest Award Ceremony.
- Road Construction Update: It's been a busy construction season in Glenview, in part due to the Village receiving several million dollars in state and federal funds to undertake major projects, and in part due to the July strike, which delayed some projects by three weeks. However, all projects have made significant progress since that time.
- Old Willow Road is now open to both lanes of traffic.
- The infrastructure around library is complete -- including a section of Techny Trail along Harlem/Lehigh.
- The section of Glenview Road that runs through downtown is moving along; paving will begin next week and should be complete within two-three weeks.
- A new traffic signal at Glenview/Washington will be installed within the next two weeks.
- Waukegan Road resurfacing -- an Illinois Department of Transportation project -- is moving along well. Paving should be completed within the next seven days. The Village will then install stamped, concrete crosswalks at five intersections, which will result in some traffic slow-downs, however, the project will be completed within four-five days.
- Pfingsten Road is substantially complete; the project included additional storm water detention capacity and sidewalk.
- The two-year Glenview/Greenwood intersection project will wrap up for the winter; underground infrastructure improvements are complete.
