The Village of Fox River Grove Board of Trustees voted 5-0 on March 3 to approve its consent agenda, which included meeting minutes, accounts payable, the treasurer’s report, a Business Capital Assistance Program grant to All Ways Art Gallery, award of the 2026 Road Resurfacing Program bid to Builders Paving, LLC, and a construction engineering services agreement for the 2026 road program.
Village President Marc McLaughlin called the meeting to order at 6:30 p.m. at the Municipal Center. Trustee Jennifer Curtiss moved to approve consent agenda items A–F; Trustee Andrew Migdal seconded. A roll-call vote recorded Trustees Curtiss, Devin Hester, David Joseph, Steve Knar, and Migdal as voting "yes," and the motion passed.
During review of the accounts payable report Trustee Devin Hester asked about a $1,700 line listed as parking tickets. Administrator Soderholm said that expense "was for an order for paper stock ticket books for the police department." Trustee Steve Knar added that "the price for carbonless paper stock has increased 30-40% recently, as companies have transitioned to other media for ticket writing and the printing equipment is expensive to maintain for production companies." The board did not delay approval of the consent agenda to pursue further action on that account.
