Hi
chairman,
thank
you
so
much
good
morning,
chairman
wheeler
members
of
the
key
county
board.
My
name
is
mark
hairs
and
I'm
the
illinois
director
for
the
humane
society
of
the
united
states,
and
I
wanted
to
take
just
a
minute
or
maybe
two
minutes
and
just
simply
thank
the
entire
mtp
county
board
on
a
major
effort
that
we
spearheaded
in
the
illinois
general
assembly
to
crack
down
on
the
commercial
sale
of
puppy
mill,
puppies
and
pet
stores.
G
Passing
these
two
main
ordinances.
Now,
there's
21
ordinances
in
the
entire
state
of
illinois
due
to
kansas
city
county
being
a
leader.
But
ultimately,
what
changed
this
year
in
the
general
assembly
was
passage
of
house
bill
1711,
and
this
was
the
statewide
fix
for
the
problem
that
we
see
across
the
board
again
of
these
sales
of
puppy.
No
puppies
and
tents
that
comes
into
this
state
and
are
sold
in
these
various
pet
stores
throughout
the
state
of
illinois
and
kentucky
county.
G
There
were
seven
or
eight
contract
lobbyists
hired
to
defeat
this
legislation,
and
I
can't
tell
you
how
many
times
they
came
up
in
negotiations
that
this
bill
had
the
support
of
the
entire
county
keys
and
I
believe
even
the
animal
control
was
behind.
It
helped
endorse
it,
and
state
attorney
was
hoping
to
endorse
it,
and
so
it
was
just
a
major,
unanimous
support
from
the
county,
and
I
can't
thank
you
guys
enough
for
offering
your
support
unanimously
on
that
measure
and
that
bill
passed.
G
D
And
whereas
lyle
kaufman
has
served
his
community
some
43
years,
including
his
time
at
german
valley
and
forest
and
fire
districts
in
illinois.
And
whereas
his
efforts
have
been
instrumental
in
promoting
the
need
for
education,
training
and
equipment
for
the
safety
of
all
firefighters
and
whereas
lyle
kaufman
served
on
the
key
county
fire
trustees
association.
D
In
order
that
local
departments
could
share
ideas
and
solve
local
issues.
And
whereas
lyle
kaufman
has
served
as
a
representative
at
the
illinois,
association
of
fire
protection,
district
sharing,
ideas
with
legislators
and
solving
statewide
issues,
and
whereas
lyle
kaufman
has
promoted
safety
and
agriculture
by
being
a
tireless
advocate
for
grain,
bin
safety,
advocating
the
need
for
equipment,
training
and
awareness
of
dangers,
and
whereas
lyle
kaufman
is
known
as
a
storyteller
amongst
the
fire
and
farming
communities.
A
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
here,
mr
long
and
a
second
for
ms
peters,
any
other
comments
from
the
board.
I
can
just
say
that
when,
when
I
first
became
chairman,
I
remember
way
back.
Mr
kaufman
was
one
of
the
first
to
come
in
and
see
me
and
talk
about
fire
districts,
and
he
took
that
job
very
seriously
for
not
just
the
time
I
was
here,
but
from
obviously
years
and
years
before
then.
So
I
do.
Thank
you
for
your
service,
sir.
I
very
much
appreciate
your
partnership
and
that
effort
so.
I
So
I
just
I
brought
this
plaque
formation
to
the
board
because
I
needed
to
recognize
lyle.
You
know
we
all
have
those
persons
in
our
community
that
mean
a
lot
to
us,
the
doers,
you
know
the
people
who
actually
get
it
done
and
lyle
is
one
of
those
such
persons.
So
I
felt
important
to
recognize
his
50
years
of
service
35
years
as
a
trustee
appointed
by
this
board
and
the
accomplishments
that
he's
had
and
I'm
gonna
step
aside
and
let
him
say
a
couple
of
words.
E
Pretty
honored
that
you
guys
would
do
this
and
invite
me
to
give
me
the
proclamation,
but
second
of
all
invite
me
into
your
place
here
on
this
hallowed
ground
that
I
could
come
and
see
where
all
the
action
of
the
county
takes
place,
I'm
more
than
honored,
but
I'm
more
than
humbled
by
the
fact
that
you
would
recognize
my
efforts.
Honors
come
with
retirement
at
some
point.
E
You've
got
to
decide
where
and
when
you
want
to
end
this,
unless
the
lord
decides
it
for
you,
but
I
quite
honestly
have
an
acronym,
a
h:
a
stands
for
age
h
stands
for
health
and
the
last
one,
and
probably
the
most
important
one
is
hearing
some
of
you
laugh
that
that's
a
fact
that
that
drives
retirement
sometimes
and
in
1964,
when
I
graduated
from
college,
I
came
home.
My
grandpa
frank
asked
me:
who
was
a
fire
trustee?
E
E
His
final
words
and
I'll
never
forget
this
is
that
we
need
you
if
grandpa
was
here
today.
He'd,
probably
I
could
say
the
same
thing
to
him
to
the
next
generation
and
the
next
generation.
We
need
you.
Public
service
isn't
done
in
my
opinion,
to
honor
people
it
it's
done
as
your
responsibility
to
your
community
period.
E
What
comes
with
that?
I'm
I'm
more
than
humbled,
and
I
wish
you
guys
could
see
all
the
notes
and
emails
and
things
that
I
got
the
county
board
has
been
very
supportive
in
our
work.
I
got
to
share
a
little
email
that
I
received
from
chairman
wheeler
that
he
said
when
I
told
him
I
was
going
to
retire.
He
said,
and
I
believe
these
aren't
exactly
your
words,
but
you
might
would
you
reconsider,
or
would
you
want
to
reconsider
that?
We
still
have
time.
I
think
you
wrote
that
to
me.
E
E
E
A
All
righty
moving
on,
we
have
certificates
of
appreciation,
one
for
mary
boswell
25
years
in
the
public
defender's
office,
not
here
today
and
brook
payne
and
the
sheriff's
department
15
years.
So
we
want
to
thank
them
for
their
commitment
to
the
citizens
of
the
county
as
well.
State's
attorney
rowe
had
something
that
he
wanted
to
do.
H
Emma
could
you
come
forward
a
little
bit,
I'd
like
to
introduce
the
board
to
emma
overton
emma
was
an
intern
in
the
state's
attorney's
office.
When
I
first
got
started,
and
I
think
you
were
probably
the
youngest
employee
or
became
the
youngest
employee.
Probably
ever
in
the
office's
history,
she
was
14
with
an
altered
birth
certificate.
H
So
now
now
what
were
you?
I
think
you
were
16.
16.
and
emma.
You
know,
there's
there's
that
saying
you
know
when
someone
leaves
the
job
everyone's
replaceable,
but
emma
disproves
that
theory.
She
has
not
been
replaceable
in
our
office
when
she
started.
She
took
on
a
very
difficult
task
of
organizing
a
shell
oil
litigation
file
that
no
one
else
in
the
office
wanted
to
touch.
H
She
not
only
got
that
in
order,
but
she
really
kind
of
mastered
the
concepts
and
the
issues
at
hand
in
that
in
that
matter,
ran
most
of
our
community
outreach
stuff
worked
as
a
clerk
responsible
for
helping
us,
maintain
the
files
and
eventually
even
worked
up
with
administration,
trying
to
keep
us
in
compliance
with
foia
and
oma
at
the
outset.
Helping
get
minutes
executive
session
minutes
done
so
emma
was
just
a
really
a
blessing
to
the
state
attorney's
office,
a
blessing
to
the
county.
H
H
She
just
recently
graduated
from
there
an
entire
year
early,
of
course,
because
that's
how
emma
does
things
she
graduated
magna
laude
with
a
bachelor
of
arts
in
politics
and
environmental
studies,
a
minor
in
legal
studies,
dean's
list
every
semester
and
you
would
have
got
eight
semesters
except
you,
graduated
early
national
honor
society
for
political
science
and
leadership
and
she's
now
going
to
on
to
the
university
of
illinois
law
school
in
the
fall
and
what
type
of
law
you
want
to
do.
Hoping.
H
Okay,
very
good
kind
of
goes
in
line
with
the
shell
shell
case
yeah.
So
we're
really
thankful
for
everything
you
invested
in
kanken
key
county
and
we're
really
happy
for
you
on
your
accomplishments
going
forward,
and
mr
snipes
called
me
and
reminded
me
about
this,
so
we
I
called
andy,
he
got
it
on
the
agenda.
Real
quick
and
I
know
mr
snipes,
you
wanted
to
say
something
as
well.
K
She's,
followed
me
through
every
one
of
my
concerts
when
I
had
a
voice
and
then
after-
and
I
just
think
that
you
know
when
she
decided
she
wanted
to
come
into,
the
county
went
into
jim's
office
and
decided
law
was
where
she
wanted
to
be,
and
then
opening
up
that
dwarf
opportunity
for
our
youth,
and
I
just
think
the
sky
is
the
limit.
I
see
the
environmental
law
and
maybe
environmental
judge
or
whether
you're
born
from
this
area.
K
The
sky
is
just
the
limit,
but
an
incredible
individual
and
I
just
thought
to
the
county
board
as
well
as
jim
and
others
need
to
see
that
youth
role
model
that
they
kind
of
birthed
our
way
back
at
14
and
now
looking
at
what
you
do,
keep
doing
what
you
do.
Definitely
you
will
have
our
well
wishes
or
whatever,
and
we
look
forward
to
great
things
coming
from
you
and
I
do
have
the
gift.
I
I
miss
the
graduation,
but.
K
A
M
Thank
you
chairman.
I
appreciate
that
good
morning,
everybody
I'm
my
name
is
marta
perales,
I'm
a
resident
of
moments.
I
have
been
down
here
for
about
almost
10
years.
I
am
here
because
I
am
concerned
about
the
redistricting
committee
process.
I've
been
watching
it
and
I
was
at
the
last
committee
hearing.
I
think,
what
I'm
not
sorry,
not
the
last
one,
the
second
to
last
one
and
I
was
a
bit
critical
of
the
process
itself,
the
lack
of
public
participation
among
a
few
other
things.
M
I
know
you
at
the
last
meeting
that
I
was
at
you
guys
voted
against
the
public
or
the
county
purchasing
thirteen
thousand
dollars
for
software
for
the
public
to
make
draw
their
own
maps
that
was
rejected
by
the
committee,
the
redistricting
committee.
What
I
wanted
to
come
here
and
say
is
you
know
I
was
actually
honored
to
hear
some
of
the
words
from
the
people
that
have
been
here
a
long
time.
This
is
a
sacred
ground.
This
you
guys
are
public
servants.
M
M
M
A
I
would
like
to
before
we
move
on.
I
just
wanted
to
introduce
somebody
to
the
group.
You
may
remember
that
during
the
covet
discussions
that
we
had
the
ability
to
use
some
coded
money
on
communicating
with
the
public
and
with
other
municipalities,
internally
externally
department
heads
on
all
of
our
programs-
and
we
got
the
head
nod
to
use
some
of
that
money
for
a
communications
director
and
we
extended
an
offer
and
has
been
accepted.
So
I
wanted
to
introduce
the
former,
I
guess,
communications
manager
for
the
city
of
kankakee.
A
Now
the
director
of
communications
for
the
county,
jasmine,
humble
she's
sitting
in
the
back
in
the
back,
say,
welcome
aboard.
She
will
be
joining
us
here
about
a
week
or
so,
I
believe,
a
little
over
a
week.
So
you
know
you
have
plenty
of
time
to
meet
her
and
we'll
talk
a
lot
about
her
extensive
skill
set
and
abilities.
A
You
know,
while
we
go
through
this
process,
we're
talking
about
a
website
just
for
the
covet
money
to
show
the
public
exactly
what
we're
doing
to
be
a
house
for
all
of
the
video
things
like
that
from
the
meetings
that
we're
going
to
be
having
this
group
is
going
to
be
a
busy
group
of
people
over
the
next
year
plus,
and
so
once
we
get
into
that
structure.
You'll
understand
more
of
what
I'm
talking
about,
but
you
can
be
as
heavily
or
involved
or
not
as
engaged
as
you
want
to
be.
A
But
everyone
on
the
board
will
have
a
subcommittee
to
be
on
and
we
hope
you
contribute
in
that
manner.
There
will
also
be
members
of
the
public
on
those,
so
jasmine
will
coordinate
much
of
that
communications
because
I'm
sure,
if
you're
on
one
committee
you're
going
to
want
to
know
what
everybody
else
is
doing,
you're
going
to
want
to
know
what's
going
on
at
bradley
and
bourbon
a
and
aroma
park,
and
what
everybody
else
is
doing,
hopefully
to
build
some
cohesion
in
the
community.
So
we
don't
waste
money.
A
L
You,
mr
chairman,
you
just
mentioned
that
all
of
us
will
be
on
various
committees
and
you
intimate
it
not
intimately,
but
you
did
indicate
that
the
community
will
be
involved
as
well.
Too.
Can
you
speak
to
your
partial
involvement
with
community-based
organizations
and
the
underserved
organizations
that
you
have
articulated
and
met
with
thus
far.
A
A
A
Day
once
we
knew
this
now
that
we've
got
the
rules
and
there's
a
lot
more
rules
than
when
this
started
we'll
get
into
some
of
that
and
actually
we'll
get
into
all
of
that
on
an
in-depth
level
in
the
subcommittee
meeting.
So
give
me
some
time
to
the
end
of
the
meeting
and
then
we'll
talk
about
that.
So
moving
on
the
minutes
of
the
last
meeting
may
11th
is
our
motion
to
approve
miss
parker.
Second,
mr
ekkoff,

A
A
L
A
L
I
posed
that
question
because
in
my
former
life,
the
contact
persons
from
the
various
con
franchises
really
practice
community
benefits
so
oftentimes
we
receive
premiums
and
so
forth,
which
we
disseminate
to
a
lot
of
the
students
in
in
our
school.
So
that's
why
I
wanted
the
name.
Oh
okay.
Is
that
johan?
O
A
Right
within
their
service
area
yeah,
it's
basically
it's
just
an
extension
of
the
current
agreement
and
then
I
had
them
add
on
other
county
facilities
that
weren't
receiving
the
the
the
I
would
say,
the
the
gratis
cable
service
for
basic
cable
that
they're,
so
that
we
were
allowed
as
being
the
the
recipient
of
this
contract.
So
we
get
a
franchise
fee
and
then
we,
our
buildings,
get
one
line
each
building.
So.
A
Yeah
there
is,
and
that's
part
of
the
broadband
initiative
right
now,
it's
up
to
and
and
believe
me-
I
haven't
approached
this
directly
with
comcast,
but
it's
like
this
with
most
utilities,
the
pub
the
public
doesn't
pay
for
the
infrastructure.
That
was
the
house
bill
in
the
senate.
Bill
to
get
gas
to
hopkins
park
was
so
that
there
could
be
a
surcharge
that
could
because
they
couldn't
pay
for
their
own
infrastructure
in
the
village
level,
and
it's
the
same
thing
with
comcast.
A
A
A
I
was
approaching
that
to
start
with,
we
shouldn't
spend
all
of
our
covet
money
on
broadband
for
the
county,
when
we
should
only
have
to
pay
a
local
match,
if
even
even
that,
so
I've
just
started
pushing
in
that
direction
focused
on
hopkins
park,
but
also
leaving
the
rest
of
the
the
commun
communities
altor,
everything
out
towards
essex
that
doesn't
have
internet
all
the
rural
stuff.
So
it's
part
of
a
broader
conversation.
I
just
don't
know
what
that
price
tag
is
yet.
Mr
snipes.
K
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
I
appreciate
some
of
the
services
of
comcast,
especially
to
the
individuals
who
in
the
poor
dispossession
arena,
but
I
do
have
a
major
concern
with
this
broadband
fee.
That's
been
a
place
upon
the
people
for
the
free
service.
I
guess
they
provide.
It
started
out
at
five
dollars.
Now
is
that
15.,
and
so
when
you
have
that
conversation
with
this
individual,
we
need
to
look
at.
How
far
is
this
fee?
K
This
is
the
fee,
in
addition
to
the
fee
of
you
paying
for
your
service
you're,
giving
you're
paying
for
the
free
service
of
others,
and
that
fee
is
constantly
going
up
from
five
and
now
with
15.
Where
does
it
stop?
So
I
would
like
to
know
as
to
that
broadband
feed
that's
being
added.
Is
that
something
that's
permanent
or
eventually
will
degrade
and
go
away
on
the
bill
because
it
has
went
300
percent
since
it
first
started.
A
Any
other
thoughts
on
this
agreement
there's
two
contracts,
because
we
have
to
do
it.
They
have
two
different
llc's
in
illinois.
That's
why
there's
two
contracts,
so
they
basically
well.
They
do
say
the
same
thing.
It's
just
the
two
different
entities,
so
we
had
a
motion
in
a
second.
I
apologize
we're
ready
roll
call
vote.
Please.
A
N
A
C
Q
I
A
R
All
right,
this
is
a
this-
is
a
request
from
applicant
corey
martin,
who
would
like
to
he's
under
contract
to
purchase
this
five
acre
tract
it's
located
on
the
north
side
of
ten
thousand
road
in
mantino
township,
just
north
of
the
lake.
You
can
see
the
lake
on
the
bottom
of
the
screen
there
he'd
like
to
purchase
the
property
and
build
a
single
family
home
for
himself
and
his
family
to
move
into
it's
own.
R
Currently
a1
agriculture
and
he'd,
like
it
to
be
zoned
to
rural
estate
to
allow
the
home
to
be
built
there.
The
two
parcels
to
the
left
are
already
zoned
rural
estates,
so
it
is,
it
is
within
the
area
there.
Zoning
board
voted
four
to
zero
to
approve
the
rezoning
and
planning,
and
zoning
committee
concurred.
R
This
property
has
been
divided
off,
for
quite
some
time
was
never
rezoned
for
residential
purposes.
But
yes,
that's
the
agricultural
property
there
to
the
north
is
a
much
larger
piece
of
property
and
it
has
access
to
the
road
in
two
locations,
both
the
ten
thousand
road
and
then
I
think
it's
maple
street
okay.
A
S
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
Before
I
make
a
motion,
I
just
want
to
take
the
time
to
thank
the
redistricting
committee
and
to
let
everybody
know
that
the
redistricting
committee
comprised
of
all
three
parties
that
are
affected
by
the
county.
We
had
mr
rose
input
along
with
his
staff
dell,
I
mean
we,
we
covered
this
very,
very
good.
I
believe,
and
I
would
make
the
motion
that
we
accept
map
e.
A
A
A
No,
it
was
very
thorough.
It
was
very
thorough
and
then-
and
we
had
a
lot
of
questions
and-
and
you
know
we
we
went
through
and
we
understood
what
our
mission
was
and
the
guide
rails
that
we
had
to
stay
within.
We
also
realized
that
we
have
many
more
guide
rails
than
the
state
of
illinois.
Has
the
state
of
illinois
is,
it
was
was
the
way
they
do
their
process.
They
don't
have
nearly
the
legal
requirements
that
we
do
on
the
local
level,
which
is
odd,
but
telling
I
guess
so.
A
A
We
had
people
calling
us,
you
know,
and
we
had
public
comment
at
the
meetings
about
how
many
board
members
we
should
have
and
comments
about
the
maps
and
it
was
about
as
open
as
I've
seen
anything
anywhere
in
the
state
of
illinois
in
terms
of
mapping.
We
you
know
there
were.
There
were
five
maps
that
we
started
with
the
public
could
draw
the
maps
they
was
actually
went
out
on
friday.
They
didn't
go
out
on
monday,
as
was
alleged.
They
were
out
friday,
so
you
had
almost
you
know.
A
You
know
at
least
eight
days
if,
if
not,
you
know
longer
to
to
work
on
these
because
people
knew
we
were
gonna.
Do
it
this
way,
you
know
the
the
we
broadcasted
the
meetings
live
where
they
were
recorded,
so
people
could
go
back.
We
did
get
one
map
that
was,
it
was
not
a
legal
map.
There
was
no
way
to
change
that
map
to
make
it
legal.
You
know,
I
don't
think
we
disparaged
anybody
in
that
process.
It
was
just
not
a
viable
map.
A
I
think
there
were
six
total
maps.
One
from
the
public,
and
all
we
have
to
do
now
is
is
to
pick
one
map
to
move
forward
now.
But
the
other
thing
to
consider
is
is
that
I
think
literally
the
12th
hour
on
on
the
monday,
the
last
night
of
the
legislative
session
they
passed
an
elections
bill
that
basically
said
we're
going
to
push
the
deadline
for
having
maps
drawn
for
county
boards
until
the
end
of
the
year.
A
I
believe
it
has
to
be
approved
in
the
december
board
meeting
it's
way
down
the
road.
It's
like
november
is
one
deadline,
but
by
the
31st
of
december
you
have
to
have
it
approved
and
they
said
you
can
use
other
data
like
this
american
cities,
data
and
delbert's,
going
to
show
you
a
little
bit
about
this
that
some
people
have
already
been
using
to
try
to
draw
districts.
A
So
we've
actually
tried
to
do
that
to
see
how
that
would
impact
our
map
process.
I
will
dell's
going
to
run
through
a
little
bit
about
that,
but
the
governor
hasn't
signed
that
bill.
Yet
just
so
you
know
so
we're
still,
under
the
the
end
of
this
month,
approval
to
get
it
to
the
full
board
process
for
next
month.
So
the
the
current
law
says
it
has
to
be
done
by
the
first
meeting
in
july.
A
A
The
governor
signs
it
exactly
second
to
none
right
here,
touche
so
yeah
I
was.
We
fully
expect
him,
obviously
to
sign
it.
He
signed
the
other
maps
within
days
of
of
that
non-transparent,
non-public
process
that
the
legislator
undertook
of
drawing
their
their
highly
gerrymandered
maps
that
have
eliminated
a
lot
of
possibilities
for
representation
from
kanke
county
residents
in
springfield
on
either
party.
A
A
So
probably
the
best
thing
I
would
I
would
do
is
we'll
show
you
map
c
and
we'll
show
you
e
okay.
But
let's,
let's
start
with
e.
If
anybody
wants
to
see
the
other
one
we
can
but
yeah
put
put
e
up
there.
First
and
we'll
just
show
them
the
map,
that's
in
front
of
them
right
now
for
approval,
and
we
could
we
could
revisit
the
other.
A
If
I
guess,
if
this
one
fails,
let's
let's
go
that
route,
that's
probably
best,
so
that
is
the
current
map
that
we
have
drawn
the
straight
lines:
the
non-gerrymandered
districts.
If
you
remember
what
were
the
rules
that
you
know,
I
hope
everybody
got
a
chance
to
watch
those
meetings.
The
first
thing
is:
is
population
has
to
be
balanced
and
we're
with
we're
within,
I
believe,
plus
or
minus
two
percent
in
every
district,
which
means
you
know
it's
either.
A
Two
percent
more
than
the
average
or
minus
two
percent,
and
and
much
of
it
is,
is
much
tighter.
So
we
have
nice
clean
straight
lines
and
it
tends
to
manifest
within
the
the
cities
as
well
becomes
much
more
difficult
in
the
cities,
as
everybody
knows,
because
once
you
click
one
block
that
could
have
an
apartment
complex
on
it
like
a
six
unit
and
then
all
of
a
sudden
you're
off
by
five
percent
in
the
whole
district.
So
it's
not
as
easy
as
it
may
sound
to
say.
A
You
know:
why
does
bradley
have
six
board
reps?
Well
because
the
law
says
it
has
to
because
it's
either
going
to
be
this
way
or
it's
going
to
be
this
way.
It
can't
be
this
way
because,
unlike
the
state
of
illinois,
we
have
gerrymandering
laws.
So
I
just
want
to
mention
that
that
you
can
see
those
are
about
as
compact
as
as
they
come
and
really
that's
all
we
did
in
this
process
is
cleaned
up
the
map
and
made
it
more
compact
and
tried
to
divide
things
up
in
a
more
fair
manner.
A
So
I
don't
know
if
there's
any
other
comments
from
the
redistricting
committee
first,
but
that
that
might
be
better
to
to
to
get
their
comment
on
just
this
map.
And
then
we
could
talk
about
this.
What
is
american
community
survey?
American
community
survey?
It's
a
division
of
the
u.s
census,
it's
a
product
of
the
census,
bureau,
okay,
all
right,
and
so
the
last
one
is
a
five-year
estimate.
So.
R
R
say
we
wanted
to
add
a
territory
to
22.
We
would
come
over
here
and
we
would
click
on
it.
You
see
that
little
red
area
there,
that
is
a
block
in
the
census,
data
2010
census
data,
that's
a
block.
I
can
bring
that
in.
I
could
click
this
one,
I'm
not
going
to
do
it,
but
if
I
go
over
here
and
click
this
button,
it'll
add
it
to
22
and
recalculate
the
population
and
the
percentages
for
22
and
25.
see
how
small.
R
Is
you
can
get
very
precise
you
can
you
can
get
down
to
a
lot
of
detail
now,
I'm
going
to
close
this
and
not
save
any
of
that,
I'm
going
to
bring
up
the
map
we
created
using
the
american
community
survey
data,
which
is
only
at
block
group
level.
That
is
the
smallest
geography
that
that
data
comes
in.
This
is
the
same
map
interpolated
out,
so
the
districts
are
roughly
in
the
same
area,
but
it's
stretching
it
to
block
group,
not
that
lower
level
block
data
just
for
comparison
purposes.
R
R
A
I
hope
that
makes
sense.
We
would
love
to
use
any
other
tool,
and
so
we
looked
at
it.
There's
no
way
with
the
constraints
that
we
have
to
to
you
know:
compactness
non-gerrymandered,
the
equalized
population
alone
makes
it
impossible
to
use
this
tool.
So
that's
one
of
the
other
reasons
I
was
bringing
forward
to
say,
even
though
we
have
more
time.
I
think
we
need
to
approve
a
map
and
then,
when
new
census
data
comes
out,
we
can
take
a
look
and
see
what
that
does
to
the
map.
A
And
if
the
percentages
go
wacky
like
to
10
15
percent,
then
we
need
to
do
something
about
it.
I
think
you
know
I'm
not
going
to
put
words
in
mr
rose
mouth,
but
I
think
you
would
agree.
We
need
to
change
something.
If
that
happens,
you
know-
and
we
would
know
in
september
and
then
we
have
basically
about
a
month
to
go
through
that
process
at
that
point.
A
So
as
soon
as
census,
data
hits
we're
going
to
revisit
this
as
with
staff
and
take
a
look
at
that
and
we'll
report
on
to
the
board
on
it.
You
know
what
has
that
done
to
the
numbers
so
and
it
could
manifest
in
different
parts
of
the
county
where
there's
been
population
gain
or
loss.
Mr
hunter,
first,
oh
thank
you,
mr
chairman,.
L
R
L
R
T
A
Yeah
we
we
we
talked
about
that
and
the
the
houses
being
built
since
2010
is,
is
an
indicator,
but
did
they
come
from
out
of
the
area?
Did
they
move
from?
You
know?
One
side
of
you
know
to
say
kankakee
to
bourbon
a
right.
Did
the
kids
go
off
to
college
and
not
come
home
right,
where's,
the
renters
at?
Are
you
know
that
that
that
kind
of
stuff
is
just
totally
up.
L
Yeah
and
you
spoke
to
hopkins
park,
pembroke
township,
which
is
52
square
miles
out
there.
Does
that
indicate,
and
for
my
own
perception
and
from
information
I've
heard
from
the
people
who
live
out
there
is
that
the
hispanic
growth
out
there?
I
see
the
vice
chair,
saying.
Yes,
I
hear
there's
a
hell
of
a
influx
of
of
hispanic
residents.
R
A
R
E
A
S
S
S
D
A
S
U
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
and
appreciate
the
all
the
work
the
committee
did.
I
know
that
there
was
a
lot
of
moving
targets
that
they
had
to
look
at,
so
I
do
oppose
e,
I'm
not
sure
what
fire
protection
districts
the
line
has
to
do,
because
I'm
looking
at
my
new
district,
which
I
would
now
be
in
district
5,
possibly
that
it
would
probably
cross
into
or
five
different
fire
protection
districts.
U
My
home
is
in
in
the
village
of
mantino,
and
I
also
would
represent
people
all
the
way
down
to
aroma
park.
So
I
I
would
like
to
see
sea
thought
of
as
an
option,
because
it's
a
more
compact
map
as
far
as
populations
and
me
knowing
my
neighbors
versus
me,
knowing
my
neighbors
and
then
not
representing
most
of
them
and
representing
people
from
aroma
park
in
that
whole
rural
area.
A
A
Motion
carries
and-
and
I
really
appreciate
all
your
work
on
the
committee
level-
you
know
all
the
public
comment
that
you
took
and
the
phone
calls
that
came
in.
I
could
tell
you
from
my
personal
experience.
It
was
about
over
90
percent
that
were
in
favor
of
the
choices
that
were
made,
so
those
were
direct
comments
from
public
comment
and
the
calls
to
us
personally.
So
thank
you
for
that
and
the
time
announcing
some
openings,
mr
henderson.
A
A
A
R
A
P
A
D
A
V
Yeah,
I
can
give
a
short
explanation
if
you
want
thank
you,
yeah
and
looking
and
reading.
As
the
information
becomes
more
available
and
clear
on
on
these
arpa
funds,
we
felt
it
was
prudent
to
add
another
fund
to
help
account
for
and
keep
track
of,
the
various
things
that
these
funds
can
be
used
for,
and
one
of
them
is
lost
revenue.
V
There's
a
specific
calculation
that
we're
able
to
use
that
provides
us
a
4.1
percent
growth
per
year,
and
then
we
can
compare
our
actual
against
that
4.1
percent
calculation
and
the
the
way
that
the
county
board
can
use
the
funds.
You
know
the
so
we
have
the
arpa
fund
and
then
we
have
a
lost
revenue
fund,
and
then
we
have
our
our
other
normal
general
fund,
special
revenue
funds,
the
the
department
of
treasury
identified.
V
We
thought
we
would
create
this
fund,
as
well
as
the
arpa
fund,
to
show
how
things
were
you
know
transacted
according
you
know,
to
the
to
the
areas,
so
we
believe
it'll
be
the
cleanest
way
to
do
it.
If
the
feds
send
auditors
in
five
years
to
look
over
our
shoulder
and
say,
okay,
you
know
explain
what
you
did.
I
believe
this
will
be
a
very
clean
way
to
do
it.
So
that's
what
we're
recommending
to
do.
A
All
right
is
there
any
other
questions,
any
questions
for
steve
on
this.
It's
it's
basically
a
way
to
segregate
the
funds
from
everything
else,
because
they
can
only
be
used
for
different
things,
as
I
mentioned
before,
when
this
started
there
weren't
many
strings
now,
there's
strings
all
over
the
place,
so
it's
much
more
restricted
than
people
think.
As
far
as
what
you
can
spend,
even
the
lost
revenue
money
on.
We
thought
that
that
was
going
to
be
just
like.
We
could
do
with
it.
A
What
we
thought
best,
that's
not
necessarily
the
case
so
and
that's
why
I've
been
sending
those
updates
and
those
faqs
to
everybody.
So
so
you
can
kind
of
keep
up
with
this
as
it
evolves
more
and
more
becomes
clear,
and
while
it
is
a
windfall,
if
you
will
it's
in
specific
areas
that
don't
let
us
address
some
things
that
we
wanted
to
address,
so
we'll
go
through
that
through
a
longer
process.
So
we
have
a
motion
in
a
second.
A
D
Mr
house
aye
mr
snipes
aye
mr
sirois
aye
mr
lear
aye
mr
webber
aye,
mrs
peters
aye,
mr
payton
aye,
ms
parker
aye,
mr
kenzinger
aye,
mr
carico,
mr
eckhoff
aye,
mr
smith,
from
celina
aye,
mr
featherling
aye,
mr
donnell,
mr
donnell
he's
not
there
all
right
on
screen.
Mr
long
hi,
mr
kirkstra
aye,
mr
hunter.
A
Aye
motion
carries
right
before
we
go
into
executive
session.
In
case
some
people
aren't
coming
back.
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
that
the
the
crowd
knew
a
couple
things.
If
you
will
in-person
meetings
will
start
next
week.
That's
phase
five,
so
all
of
our
processes
come
into
play
where,
if
somebody
is
not
here,
the
board
or
the
subcommittee
or
the
committee
has
to
vote
to,
let
them
in
via
zoom.
A
They
need
to
communicate
that
ahead
of
time
to
the
committee,
and
it
has
to
be
for
those
specific
reasons
that
we
talked
about.
There's
no
more.
I
just
want
to
be
home.
So
that's
those
types
of
things.
Obviously,
family
business
pulls
you
away.
We
want
to
be,
you
know
an
age
of
technology.
We
work
with
you,
but
it's
time
to
come
back
in
the
room,
and
so
I
just
want
to
mention
that
to
everybody.
Is
there
any
questions
about
that?
Yeah?
Yes,
sir.
A
L
I
don't
know
about
that.
You
know,
you
know.
I'd
refer
that
to
council,
but
you
know
I
just
heard
some
information
about
a
dear
friend
of
mine,
who's
got
colby
and
I've
been
at
meetings
with
him
and
and-
and
I
don't
you
know-
I'm
too
damn
old
to
be
subject
to
that
stuff,
but
I'm
just
hoping
that
we'll
get
some
kind
of
definitive
explanation
or
response
on
on
my
question
I
mean
we're
adults
and
we
have
to
be
pragmatic
in
terms
of
our
colleagues.
L
A
A
A
Here
too,
I'm
not
believing
I'm
not
disparaging
on
that
fact,
but
we
have
to
think
about
the
entire
body
and
with
the
governor
and
the
cdc
being
on
the
same
page
and
as
of
the
11th
were
open.
That's
the
rules,
and
so
obviously,
if
you
know
protect
yourselves,
we're
saying
that.
But
we
just
can't
ask
the
question
and
anita's
done
the
work
on
this,
and
I
don't
know
if
she
has
comment,
but
I
think
I
might
have.
F
A
Think
they
should
get
a
hold
of,
and
I'm
glad
you
brought
that
up.
It
would
be
send
an
email
to
the
chairperson
and
to
kelly
so
she's
logged
it
essentially
because
we
need
to
know
a
couple
days
ahead
of
time
because
we
obviously
have
to
you
know.
Maybe
we
have
a
standing
agenda
item
that
allows
us
to
vote
on
people
for
remote.
You
know,
I
would
say
that
you
know
it's
got
to
be
a
good
reason.
F
L
A
A
D
A
Per
se,
you
know
per
se
yeah
yeah.
I
agree,
protect
yourself
and
protect
those
you
love,
that's
all.
I
can
tell
you,
man
dude
and
we're
not
going
to
stop
you
from
wearing
a
mask
or
whatever
else.
That's
that's
not
it,
but
it's
time
to
come
back
in
the
room.
If
we're
open
as
a
state
and
as
a
city
as
a
county,
then
the
boardroom's
open
too
just
think
about
the
person.
Next
to
you,
that's
all.
I
ask
beyond
that.
I
just
wanted
to
mention
also
that
these
appropriations
were
reappropriated
for
kankakee
county.
A
A
Thank
you
for
that.
So
we
we
had
a
conversation
with
the
senator
more
to
come
on
that,
but
we're
going
to
segregate
those
funds
into
a
special
fund
that
I
can't
even
look
at
or
you
can't
even
look
at
it
until
there's
a
river
use
for
it
that
so
because
we're
going
to
protect
that.
That's
a
very
important
dedicated
fund
for
the
river
there's,
also
a
million
dollars
and
now
by
the
way
I
want
to
mention
those
are
capital
improvements.
A
That's
one
separate
fund.
We
already
have
a
separate
fund
for
the
one
million
dollars
that
was
for
dredging
in
selected
places.
So
we
had,
we
had
said
you
know
roma
park
boat,
launch
with
public
safety,
and
all
of
that
was
a
major
problem.
We
got
tree
removal
there's
a
lot.
We
could
do
in
the
short
throw
to
do
these
types
of
things
so
more
to
come
on
that.
A
I'm
not
asking
you
to
figure
out
how
to
spend
that
money
right
now,
but
I'm
sure
we'll
have
plenty
of
people
calling
us
telling
us
how
to
spend
that
money.
So,
thanks
to
senator
joyce
on
that,
we
had
a
hundred
thousand
dollar
reappropriated
for
general
infrastructure,
25
000
for
the
the
stairs
at
the
courthouse.
A
As
you
remember,
we
had
an
overrun
that
we
had
to
get
the
the
stairs
redone
and
balanced
that
we
talked
to
and
had
that
done,
so
we
were
able
to
cover
that
cost
and
then
the
400
000
is
reappropriated
for
the.
What
we're
doing
as
far
as
the
upgrades
in
the
jury
assembly
in
the
basement
over
at
the
courthouse
as
well,
and
so
that
bill
will
probably
will
we'll
be
spending
another
250
000,
because
we
needed
to
expand
the
jury
area
because
of
social
distancing
and
really
we
had
huge
space
problems
down
there.
A
Also
with
the
staff
of
the
circuit
clerk
things
like
that,
we
need
to
get
everybody
kind
away
from
each
other,
because
we
have
huge
space
concerns
at
the
courthouse
which,
as
we
talked
about
dotted
line,
there's
a
coveted
tie
to
that.
So
we
can
use
some
of
that
money
for
that
as
well.
We
think
department
of
treasury
by
the
way
is
not
answering
questions
whether
they
agree
with
you.
They
just
refer
you
back
to
the
rules
which
don't
say
much
along
that
one.
A
It's
good
when
it
works
across
party
lines
to
get
something
done.
Doesn't
it?
Yes,
it
really
does
yeah.
That's
it's!
I'm
glad
everybody
saw
the
need
and
they'll
get
the
governor
to
sign
it.
He
signed
it.
It's
signed
the
governor,
signed
it
yeah.
Okay,
I
didn't
know,
was
that
today
or
yesterday
yesterday,
oh
okay,.
A
Yeah
last
night,
sorry,
I
missed
that
that's
good!
He
signed
it
now
now
we're
working
on
getting
it
into
the
homes,
that's
the
next
step,
and
so
we're
starting
to
work
on
that
next,
there's
already
some
things
in
play.
The
counties
apply
for
a
very
substantial
infrastructure,
grant
that
we're
starting
to
work
with
dceo
on
so
the
key
is:
is
natural,
gas
and
and
pembroke
at
hopkins
park
just
as
soon
as
we
can
get
it
out
there.
I
don't
know
if
it's
going
to
make
it
before
the
snow
flies
this
year.
L
Yeah
and
just
to
piggyback
on
that
I
mean
there
were
a
lot
of
players.
I
know
commissioner
peyton
mentioned
representative
haas
and
and
senator
joyce
other
players
as
well
too.
Oh,
yes,
yeah
and
and
without
withstanding
the
the
fact
that
you
and
nicor
rev,
jesse
jackson
and
other
entities
who
played
a
substantial
role
in
that
and,
of
course,
county
board.
L
Member
peyton
was
and
and
mayor
hodge
and
all
those
folks,
and
when
you
think
in
terms
of
some
of
the
obstacles
that
were
thrown
in
in
your
way,
I
mean
my
god.
I've
never
seen
anything
like
that
from
external
pressure
being
brought
to
bear
on
the
on
the
senator
as
well
as
jackie
as
well
as
you,
mr
chairman.
L
A
Well,
thank
you
for
that.
It's
worth
it
because
it's
the
right
thing
there's
nothing
wrong
with
people
having
a
choice
to
save
money
or
not
and
a
consistent
supply
of
energy.
So
the
executive
session,
pending
litigation,
five
ice,
lcs
120,
slash
2c11!
Is
there
a
motion,
mr
ekkoff?
Second,

peters,
roll
call
vote.
Please.

A
Motion
carries
wanted
to
mention
a
couple
things
before
we
get
to
the
other
business.
You
know
we
lost
a
long
time
board.
Member
ed
mentz,
a
friend
of
the
board,
a
friend
of
ours
personally
and
condolences
go
out
to
his
family,
serve
this
public
turn
the
public
very
well
for
quite
a
long
time.
Also,
I
wanted
to
discuss
a
little
bit
about
these
arpa
subcommittees
of
the
executive
committee.
A
There'll
be
a
full,
you
know,
I
want
to
call
it
a
presentation,
but
a
full
packet
put
together
on
this,
but
at
executive
committee
this
month
we're
going
to
start
to
start
to
go
through
the
structure
of
this,
and
you
know
how
this
is
going
to
be
separated.
Everybody
can't
do
everything,
so
we
have
to
break
up
into
smaller
groups
and
focus
on
little
pieces
of
this,
along
with
people
from
the
community
that
are
either
subject
matter
experts
or
want
to
become
part
of
a
particular
subcommittee.
A
So,
as
mr
hunter
mentioned
earlier
way,
back
on
saint
patty's
day,
we
started
meeting
with
hispanic
partnership,
black
pastors
the
naacp
to
make
sure
they
understood
what
we
understood
about
the
law
at
that
time
and
what
it
meant
and,
as
things
have
been,
become
more
clear.
I've
kept
up
those
conversations,
but
it
was
more
of
an
opportunity
to
say
you
know,
put
your
thinking
caps
on
tell
us
what
you're
wanting
to
do,
and
this
is
what
I'm
thinking
if
you
we
did,
have
these
subcommittees.
A
What
would
you
want
to
focus
on
so
like
as
an
example,
mr
pace
said
that
he
wanted
to
be
part
of
workforce.
So
how
are
we
gonna
respond
to
the
covet
crisis
or
revitalize
the
community
better,
better
said
in
terms
of
workforce,
and
he
wants
to
be
part
of
that
process.
So
there
there's
other
people.
I've
talked
to
from
workforce
like
kcc
and
the
workforce
board
that
maybe
we
can
come
up
with
something
that
directly
impacts
or
addresses
or
mitigates
something
from
covet
related
to
the
workforce.
A
It's
open-ended
question
right
now,
we're
not
looking
for
answers
today.
That's
what
the
committee's
going
to
be
developing
is
the
policy.
What
is
our
policy
going
to
be
in
terms
of
workforce,
then,
once
we
get
through
that
whole
process
of
what
our
policy
is,
I've
got
all
these
requests
that
have
started
coming
in
and
then
the
committees
will
have
ideas
that
they
want
to
start.
A
You
know
coming
up
with
on
their
own
what
ifs
you
know
and
we
will
have
subject
matter
experts
in
the
room
with
mr
mccarty
and
anita,
and
you
know,
steve's
team,
because
it's
not
as
easy
as
we
just
want
to
give
money
to
x,
y
and
z.
Well,
can
we
is
that
a
legal
use
of
the
money?
Are
they
an
organization
that
can
document
their
use
of
that
money
because
they're
sub-grantees?
A
So
there's
a
lot
more
than
this
than
just
as
I
say,
you
know,
driving
down
core
street
shoveling
money
out
of
the
back
of
a
pickup.
It's
not
going
to
be
that
kind
of
a
process.
It's
going
to
be
very
targeted
with
a
lot
of
transparency.
We
talked
about
websites,
we
talked
about
communications.
We
talked
about
other
municipal
governments
and
entities
working
with
us
on
bigger
projects
that
we
all
agree
on.
So
again,
a
marathon
not
a
sprint,
but
everybody
here
has
a
subcommittee.
A
No
so
anyway,
I
just
want
to
get
to
that
point
more
to
come.
I've
talked
to
a
few
board
members
when
they've
asked
about
you
know
what
they
want
to
do,
but
and
and
you
know
what
committees
they
wanted
to
be
on,
and
things
like
that,
so
we've
got
the
full
list,
expect
something
after
executive
committee
and
then
we
can
go
into
a
larger
discussion
and
then
the
board
can
shape.
A
This
is
the
way
that
they
feel
as
well,
but
I've
created
an
overarching
type
platform
if
you
will
a
an
initiative
where
we're
going
to
respond,
revitalize
and
then
reinvest
into
the
community.
So
that's
an
important
part
of
this
for
for
the
board
to
focus
on
what
not
just
what
you
want
to
do.
What
is
the
community
expecting?
How
much
money
do
we
have?
A
A
W
A
A
A
And
that's
the
rules
as
they
read
right
now,
would
indicate
that,
because
we
can
do
that
with
salaries,
we
can't
we
can't
use
it
on
pensions,
but
we
can
use
it
for
the
pension
contribution
of
an
employee
dedicated
to
covet
response.
Does
that
make
sense
so
and
it's
the
same
thing
with
this
committee
they're
dedicated
towards
covert
response,
so
I
think
we
can
use.
We
think
we
can
use
per
diems
towards
that
and.
T
Ms
chairman,
that
reads
the
second
point.
As
chair
of
finance,
I'm
thinking
the
finance
department
is
going
to
have
a
lot
of
different
rules
to
sort
through.
I'm
sure
that
we're
conscious
that
at
some
point
it's
going
to
be
appropriate
to
have
a
finance
person
who
would
be
funded
with
some
of
that
federal
money
so
that
we
can
keep
track
of
that.
Because
yeah.
A
X
That
being
said,
I
would
never
vote.
It's
a
shame
that
our
our
state
level
democrats
voted
to
shoot
ourselves
in
the
foot
rather
than
to
work
on
the
federal
level
to
abolish
the
program
that
they
hate
so
much.
I
just
wanted
to
point
out
that
that's
really
a
terrible.
I
would
happily
assist
anybody
to
to
work
with
our
state
legislators
to
go
to
the
federal
level
to
abolish
ice,
but
I
would
never
ever
vote
to
just
shoot
ourselves
in
the
foot.
X
So
I
just
wanted
to
kind
of
point
out
to
everybody
that
when
you're
thinking
about
policy
and
really
let's
try
and
get
to
the
root
of
the
problem,
it's
a
huge
problem
in
illinois
here
that
we
shoot
ourselves
in
the
foot
and
we're
just
going
to
send
those
detainees
to
a
different
place.
And
and
honestly,
a
lot
of
them
are
going
to
be
further
away
from.
X
If
you're
arrested
in
illinois,
where
you're
living
illegally
quote
unquote,
now
you're
going
to
get
shipped
to
a
different
state
and
you're
not
going
to
be
around
the
people
that
you
were
living
with.
So
really,
they
did
a
huge
disservice
to
those
people
that
are
in
our
ice
system,
and
I've
spoke
with
a
lot
of
people
locally.
That
have
called
me
to
voice
their
concerns
with
ice,
and
my
point
to
them
was
that
why
not,
rather
than
shove
them
down
the
road?
Why
don't?
X
Why
didn't
we
work
to
make
sure
that
we
treated
them
as
well
as
we
could,
while
they
were
in
our
possession
or
not
possession,
but
rather
our
custody
and
work
at
the
federal
level
to
get
rid
of
those
things?
And
it's
just
really
disheartening
to
me
to
see
our
state
legislature
do
something
so
counterproductive.
H
H
H
A
Yeah,
that's
the
part
that
really
gets
me
and
you've
take
the
financial
side
out
of
it
the
impact
it's
going
to
be
on
those
families
that
are
already
dealing
with
the
situation
and
now
they're
going
to
have
to
go
to
another
state
if
at
all
available
to
see
their
loved
ones.
It's
doesn't
make
sense
to
me.
Could
I.
X
X
If
we
could
maybe
all
think
about
some
big
projects,
we
have
an
opportunity
here
with
a
lot
of
money
to
take,
rather
than
to
give
a
lot
of
money
to
little
issues
and
have
it
fizzle
out
and,
quite
frankly,
be
half-assed
and
not
get
anything
really
done.
We
should
all
look
at
working
on
a
couple,
big
issues.
I
I
think,
and
try
and
knock
those
out
as
hard
as
we
can
with
the
money
that
we
have
available
so
just
something
to
keep
in
mind
as
we
go
forward
and.
