Telephone log line items were reviewed.

Management stated that all of the sealcoat and crack fill work has been completed.

Management reported that the Village of Lisle Engineer, Gary Elmore, observed the drainage problem along the trail behind GR1038 and stated that this would not fall under storm water management.    The Board suggested that Management follow up with the Village Engineer for assistance in obtaining another professional opinion as to a possible solution to the ongoing water pooling problem.  

Management met with Gary Elmore to discuss the need for the Village of Lisle to move the pedestrian crossing of Trinity Drive closer to Golfview, after the Woodglen Park renovation is complete, so it would be between the stop bar and Golfview Drive.

Management submitted a planting application from GTIA residents at SR1004 for Board review.  Board members will review the site and bring their comments to the July Board meeting.

Old Business - New Business
