Reporting to the village board Jan. 4, Van Mill said he rode along with Public Works Director Mike Chamness to get a better idea of the department's activities during ice and snow.

The board also expressed their condolences for the family of Kankakee County Convention and Visitors Bureau President Larry Williams, who recently passed away.
The meeting was adjourned after 10 minutes.
