ITEM SUMMARY:
In September 2021, under Resolution No. 21-R-0080, the City applied for Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) funding from DuPage County (County) for the Bishop Street and Brown Street Water Main
and Streets Rehabilitation Project (CD24-04), which falls within the low-to-moderate income areas of
West Chicago. Project Limits are denoted in the enclosed location map. The project is substantially
complete; however, there is a substantial delay in the manufacturing and delivery of the light poles for the
CD24-04 Project, which are anticipated to be installed in February 2026, weather permitting. The original
Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with the County expired on October 31, 2025, and the first extension
to the IGA also expired on January 31, 2026. City has requested the second extension to the IGA for April
30, 2026, which the County has agreed upon. Enclosed is the IGA amendment for the second completion
date extension.
In September 2024, under Resolution No. 24-R-0069, the City applied for a separate CDBG funding from
the County for the York Avenue Area Water Main and Street Rehabilitation Project (CD25-03), which also
falls within the low-to-moderate income areas of West Chicago. Project limits are denoted in the enclosed
location map. As required by the CDBG application process, a Notice for Public Hearing was published in
the Daily Herald on September 11, 2024. A public hearing for the Project was held on September 23,
2024, at the Water Treatment Plant.
On April 4, 2025, the County notified the City that an award in the maximum amount of $600,000.00,
which is approximately 22% of the total anticipated project construction cost of $2,736,405.79, had been
made for Project CD25-03. On January 23, 2026, the City received a notice that the DuPage County
Community Development Commission requires the City to execute an IGA with the County for Project
CD25-03. Staff is working with the County to revise the proposed completion date of February 26, 2027,
to ensure further IGA amendments are not required. The draft IGA is enclosed.
Resolution No. 21-R-0080 and 24-R-0069 authorized the City Administrator to execute the CDBG funding
application, the funding IGA, including any amendments to the IGA for respective projects. However, dué
to the absence of a City Administrator, the County is requiring an updated Resolution allowing both the
Interim City Administrator and the City Administrator to execute the CDBG funding IGA and necessary
amendments.
