  • Bids are being reviewed for the Forest Lane reconstruction project.
  • Oakdale Lane repairs and other needed road repair requests.
  • Possible changes to Forest Lane near the intersection of Forest Lane, Fairview Drive and Highland Terrace. Mr. Grinnell reported to Mr. Melledy that nothing has been decided, planned or scheduled by Fremont Township. James Melledy presented to the board a preliminary conceptual drawing of new possible property and road configurations to be discussed. The drawing was provided by Gary Winemaster for informational purposes only. Residents should direct all questions regarding the intersection of Forest Lane, Fairview Drive and Highland Terrace to Bill Grinnell, Fremont Township Highway Commissioner.

David Frost expressed concern regarding several trees that hang over Oakdale Drive. Mr. Frost’s concern is that the trees pose a possible hazard if they are to fall or collapse onto the road. It was recommended that he contact Fremont Township to request having the trees trimmed away from the road.

Dan Prezell plans to attend the scheduled Mundelein Park District meetings to discuss weed control options.
