New Lenox Village Board Meeting | February 9, 2026

The New Lenox Village Board of Trustees met on Monday, February 9, 2026, to handle a slate of contracts and financial authorizations. Mayor Tim Baldermann led the meeting, where trustees approved annual landscaping agreements and maintenance projects for village utilities.

Significant actions included the approval of a $185,000 mowing contract and a formal objection to a county rezoning request near the village’s borders. The meeting concluded in approximately six minutes with all members of the board voting in unison on all agenda items.

Pump Station Painting Approved:
The board voted to approve a contract for painting piping at the Tinley Park Pump Station. Staff originally budgeted to paint the floor of the facility this year, but upon inspection, determined the piping required immediate attention. The board accepted a quote for the project in the amount of $24,980.

Payroll and Disbursements:
Trustees authorized bi-monthly disbursements totaling $4,159,514.54. In a separate motion, the board approved a payroll in the amount of $574,511.81, which was paid on February 6, 2026. Both financial items were passed unanimously.
