Under new business, Ordinance 2026‑2607 would accept a bid for the Village’s water meter replacement project and authorize the Village Administrator to enter into an agreement with the selected bidder, but Council was not prepared to act and tabled the ordinance. The text indicates a bid has been identified, yet the vendor name and final acceptance are not recorded and the authorization to proceed is on hold. This suggests the project scope and initial bidding are in place, but the award decision is not finalized and could still be influenced, especially if concerns or questions delayed action.Vendors in water metering, AMI/AMR, and utility infrastructure can monitor this closely for potential re‑bid, clarification requests, or add‑on work such as meter reading systems, data management, or installation support once the primary vendor is confirmed.

The ordinance language shows a bidder has been selected in principle, but Council’s decision to table indicates unresolved issues or need for more information before final award.
