Village Urges Compliance with Fireworks Ban; Detective Lauded for Act of Kindness
The Village Board reminded residents that fireworks are illegal within the village limits. This reminder comes in response to resident complaints about noise and disturbances, particularly affecting those with special needs, as well as pets. Residents are urged to attend professional fireworks displays in other towns rather than setting off their own. Additionally, the fire department thanked the Voluntian Park District for allowing training sessions and announced plans to collaborate with outside departments for training. Detective Hazleton was publicly recognized and thanked for his act of kindness in purchasing groceries for a family in need.
Upcoming Independence Day Parade and 40th Annual Mayor's Golf Outing Announced
The Village Board discussed the upcoming annual Independence Day parade scheduled for Saturday, the 27th, anticipating a large turnout of participants and spectators due to favorable weather forecasts. Trustee Killey mentioned that yesterday marked the first meeting of 'Keep Midlothian, Illinois Beautiful.' The Mayor's Golf Outing, in its 40th year, is scheduled for Monday, August 31st, at the Beloting Country Club, seeking golfers, raffle prizes, and sponsorships.
Village Board Approves Over $1.5 Million for Street Maintenance and Various Operational Expenses
The Village Board approved multiple resolutions for street maintenance under the Illinois Highway Code. These resolutions appropriated various amounts totaling $1,545,000 for maintaining streets and included financial contributions to specific projects such as the 143rd Street Resurfacing Project and Milothian's 2026 street resurfacing program. Approval was also given for maintenance engineering services related to the MFT maintenance program with IDOT. Additionally, membership dues for the South Suburban Mayors and Maintenance Association for 2026-2027 were approved, along with a quote for IT solutions for the police department. Several monthly department reports and committee/board meeting minutes from May and June 2026 were also approved, as was the list of bills.
Storm Debris Cleared; Lead Service Line Replacement Projects Progressing
The Superintendent reported that the branch pickup from a recent storm is nearly complete, having cleared over 36 tons of debris. He indicated that the village will enforce regulations more strictly going forward to avoid prolonged cleanup periods after storms. The lead line replacement project, Phase Two, is commencing with letters being sent to residents. Phase One of the lead service line project, completed by Caddy Met City Plumbing, is concluding this week, having replaced over 300 lead service lines. Challenges were noted in encouraging participation, but the project successfully replaced a significant portion of identified lead lines, with the discovery of lead being a 'shifting target' throughout the project.

The Village Board approved the appointment of Lori Salter to the Keep Midlothian Illinois Beautiful board. Following Treasurer Maggie Britton's retirement, Yvonne Redmond, currently the Finance Director, was appointed as the Village Treasurer.
