South Beloit awards $28,000 strategic‑planning contract to NIU
Council approved awarding a strategic‑planning contract to Northern Illinois University (NIU) for $28,000 after reviewing six proposals. Staff described the work as an action‑oriented strategic plan with substantial public involvement and benchmarks to align departmental efforts with resident priorities.

Staff said a three‑person review committee evaluated proposals and that the selected proposal offered the best combination of scope and price; the $28,000 figure was noted as just under the city’s $30,000 budget for the project. The planning process will include outreach to residents and stakeholders and produce a roadmap to guide future decisions.

No additional budget amendments were reported in the meeting minutes; council voted to approve the contract.
