Hinsdale Village Board
Among other business Tuesday, trustees:
• approved outdoor dining for Casa Margarita effective immediately. The restaurant operates in the Brush Hill Train Station at 25 E. Hinsdale Ave. and is subject to a lease agreement with the village as well as a contract agreement between the village and BNSF, rather than the newly adopted regulations for outdoor dining in the village code. The outdoor dining permission runs through Oct. 31.

• approved 2024 pay plans for full-time, part-time and public services employees effective May 1, 2024 to April 30, 2025. The plans incorporate at 3 percent increase across the board for most salaries, in line with the 3 percent increase for police officers as part of the collective bargaining agreement with the Fraternal Order of Police.
