Glenview Boards Tackled Drone Program, Police Gear, and Development Plans in Early July
Glenview's Development Commission and Board of Trustees each met in early July, with agendas covering a proposed police drone program, roughly $276,000 in police and facility contracts, and final reviews of several development projects. Minutes for all three meetings have not yet been published, so outcomes are not yet available.
Board of Trustees — July 2
The Board of Trustees agenda included a resolution to waive competitive bidding and approve a four-year contract with Motorola Solutions for a Drone as a First Responder program. The agenda did not specify a dollar amount for that contract.
The consent agenda listed several contracts:
- Ballistic vests from Ray O'Herron Company at $93,857.
- Rifle-rated plates from Ray O'Herron Company, not to exceed $89,888.59.
- A village-wide facility conditions assessment with McKinstry Essention LLC, not to exceed $92,890.
New business included first consideration of ordinances for site plans and zoning variations at four locations:
- North Shore Country Club Paddle Hut, 1340 Glenview Road.
- Wendy's, 4610 W Lake Avenue.
- 811 Railroad Townhomes, 811 Railroad Avenue.
- Sports field and stadium improvements at Glenbrook South High School, 4000 W. Lake Avenue.
The board was also scheduled to consider amendments to liquor licenses, the Permanent Fund Policy, and an intergovernmental agreement for crossing guards. Additional contracts for police equipment, facility assessments, fuel, and landscaping were on the consent agenda.

The Development Commission's adjustments meeting included public hearings on two items:
