The Taylorville City Council meets Monday night, with several major infrastructure, airport, and water system items up for consideration.

Council members are expected to act on a proposal that would allow the city to borrow up to 18 million dollars through waterworks revenue bonds. The funding would be used for improvements to the city’s water system. A related resolution on the agenda would authorize the mayor to sign loan application documents for lead service line replacement funding.

The council will also consider a number of airport-related projects, including design and planning services for the rehabilitation of Taxiway A at the Taylorville Airport, approval of a $200,550 contract for hangar roof repairs, and steps toward updating the airport’s layout plan through the Illinois Department of Transportation.

Other items include approval of a business district agreement amendment with the Christian County YMCA, the purchase of a John Deere garden tractor, and a proposed downtown rehabilitation funding agreement with IDOT.

The agenda also includes a recommendation to establish a business license program with an annual fee of $100, acceptance of the low bid for trash service, and several street and sewer matters, including the possible removal of stop signs at two intersections and the pursuit of equipment for city operations.

In addition, the council will recognize Kaci Devore as Dispatcher of the Year, swear in Amy Hagen as Alderman for Ward Two, and vote on appointments to city boards.

The Taylorville City Council meeting begins Monday night at 7:00 at City Hall, and is open to the public.
