History
The 2024 Neighborhood Road Improvement Program (NRIP) included the maintenance and reconstruction of various roadways/streets throughout the Village.

Instead, staff decided to repair curbs, patch pavement, and add a pavement rejuvenator to the roads to extend their lifespan, which was accounted for in the 2025 budget.

Residents were notified of the upcoming application via a flyer passed out on June 17. “No Parking” signage was also installed by the contractor prior to the application. The asphalt rejuvenator product used was Reclamite, a product derived from maltene-based petroleum. Reclamite will absorb into asphalt pavement, restoring reactive components that have been lost due to oxidation. In essence, it extends the service life o...
