Village Board of Trustees Minutes June 15, 2023
Tourism Committee, reported the following:
The Community Promotions and Tourism Committee met on June 6. The
Committee listened to a Local Tourism Grant application request from
the Lombard Junior Women’s Club for a Lombard Beer Fest to take
place in July. We then met with Westin Chicago Lombard’s General
Manager Kym Meyers to review their Local Hotel Relief Grant
Application. As a reminder, this hotel relief funding comes from the
American Recovery Plan Act and is intended to help our local hotels
continue to recover post-pandemic. Grant funding is limited to the
proportionate share of total grant funds calculated on a per room basis
and to be eligible for consideration, applications must adhere to our
designated guidelines including qualified expenses and eligibility
requirements. The committee voted to recommend approval for both of
these grant requests. Tonight, we will be voting on these two
recommendations, as well as on a previous Local Tourism Grant request
from the Downtown Lombard Business Alliance and Lombard Chamber
of Commerce for the October 22, 2023 downtown Spooktacular event.

VII. Village Manager/Village Board/Village Clerk Comments
Village President Keith Giagnorio wished Village Manager Scott
Niehaus a happy birthday.
Village Clerk Liz Brezinski noted the following:
I just wanted to say a few words about the agenda item regarding the
reappointments to the various committees, boards, and commissions.
As anyone who attends our Board of Trustees meetings knows, the
meetings tend to be on the shorter side. I like to think it is because we
are so efficient. One of the main factors is that so much work is done
prior to any item appearing on our agenda. The volunteer committees
and village staff do the majority of the “heavy lifting” - asking questions,
researching, looking at code, running the numbers, offering suggestions
or alternatives, conferring with the Village Attorney and so on. The items
on tonight’s agenda have likely been discussed at a minimum of two
prior committee meetings. The committees are an integral part of our
government system, and the Village is committed to making sure they
are representative of our community.
Letters were recently sent to all current members whose terms are up to
gauge their interest in continuing to serve another term. Additionally,
these letters noted if the person missed 3 or more meetings in a year.
The intent was not to shame anyone, but to emphasize the fact that these
volunteers play an important role. I think I can speak for everyone sitting
up here when I say we truly appreciate the work done by our committees.
In 2021, we adopted a new policy of requiring the committee chair to
interview at least 3 people for any vacancy. This is intended to increase
openness and transparency and provide the opportunity for a more
inclusive process. That being said, we have identified 10 vacancies
across various committees that need to be filled, and we are once again
looking for interested community members to apply. Additional
information can be found on the village website and will be shared out via
social media starting Monday. We would like to encourage anyone
interested to consider this opportunity and if needed, reach out to any
Village of Lombard Page 3

one of us to learn more about our committees and the appointment
process.
