Discussion followed on the 9-26-85 report by Charles Willis. Consensus was to have existing Village personnel and equipment begin maintenance efforts this winter and to contract the work which the Village could not do as it relates to the area of highest priority, Nicholas Boulevard. This effort will help the Village Engineer and Director of Public Works to determine the amount of personnel necessary and the type of equipment required for a complete maintenance program. Members and staff stressed that efforts toward more permanent relief (example, stabilize ditch walls) be made once the initial clean-up work is complete. -2- A one-page access authorization form will be re- quired of the Village Attorney by Charles Willis.
