Maywood Engineer reports $7 million in combined offers from Cook County and MWRD for stormwater projects
Village Engineer William Peterhansen briefed trustees on Aug. 3, 2021 about the status of flood-relief funding and stormwater improvement projects. Peterhansen said offers include $3 million from Cook County and $4 million from the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago to support stormwater work in Maywood.

The presentation referenced an updated Storm Sewer Concept Plan (revision date 7.22.2021). The board and staff discussed next steps and coordination with Cook County and MWRD to advance design and funding agreements. No formal action or funding agreement was recorded in the minutes; the item was presented as a status report and discussion ensued.

Why it matters: the combined offers represent a significant capital resource that, if finalized, could fund infrastructure improvements intended to reduce local flooding and stormwater impacts.

What’s next: staff and the village engineer will continue coordination with county and regional agencies; project design and formal agreements are anticipated steps before funds would be expended.
