Sorry,
mr
smith,
president,
mr
hildebrand,
mr
wheeler.
A
President
and
quorum,
I
do
have
to
to
mention
the
the
mask
mandate,
regardless
of
political
affiliation.
Whatever
your
position
is,
it's
not
really
regarded.
The
the
the
objections
to
some
of
these
things
are
not
just
centered
on
one
political
side,
that's
on
both,
but
in
order
for
us
to
have
liability
insurance,
we
have
to
heed
the
governor's
mandate
in
the
county.
So
I'm
just
letting
you
guys
know
that.
That's
what
has
that's
why
we
have
to
wear
the
mask
in
the
building,
even
if
you're
vaccinated.
A
Even
if
you
disagree
with
it,
it's
not
our
decision,
because
the
decision
we
make
would
affect
the
taxpayers
in
the
in
the
event
of
a
judgment.
We
don't
even
have
a
lawyer
that
will
defend
us
for
free
if
you
will,
because
that
is,
you
know
that
that's
what
our
insurance
does
and
those
types
of
liability
cases.
So
I'm
just
letting
you
know
it's
not
really
a
decision
that
that
that
we
take
lightly.
A
C
A
A
I
need
a
motion
to
go
into
executive
session
for
pending
litigation.
5
ilcs
120,
slash,
2
c11.
Let's
see
we'll
go
with
miss
brian,
mr
kirkstra.
All
those
in
favor
say
wait
a
minute
is
that
a
roll
call.
A
We
are
now
back
from
executive
session.
All
board
members
are
still
present.
A
I
don't
know
I'm
just
thinking
about
that
when
everybody's
on
the
mic
they
take
their
mask
off
to
talk
and
everybody
around
them
has
a
mask
on.
So
I'm
gonna
look
into
that.
I'm
gonna
see
how
that
goes
into
the
law.
I
don't
think
I
have
to
have
it
on
the
talk,
but
we'll
see
I'm,
but
I'm
gonna
play
it
safe
because
I
want
insurance
so
anyway.
The
the
first
thing
up
is
the
under
new
business
is
the
authorization
for
kanke
county
to
join
in
litigation.
A
Could
we
get
the
resolution
right
into
the
records?
Please.
A
No
just
just
the
whole
thing.
B
B
After
discussion
review
and
consideration,
the
board
recommends
that
the
kankakee
county
join
the
litigation
to
be
filed
by
mchenry
county
now,
therefore,
it
be
resolved
by
the
kankakee
county
board
after
review
discussion
and
consideration
authorized
the
chairman
of
the
kanke
county
board
or
his
designee
to
join
in
the
litigation
and
sign
the
complaint
on
behalf
of
kankakee
county
passed
and
approved
this
14th
day
of
september.
2021.
A
All
right,
as
amended
the
scrivener's
there
is
there
a
motion
to
accept
this,
we'll
go
with
mr
swanson
and
mr
long
with
a
second.
Is
there
any
discussion
on
the
topic
from
anyone
on
the
board?
A
Okay,
the
the
only
statements
we'll
have
will
be
in
the
press
release,
and
I
just
want
to
remind
everybody
watching
that
this
this
lawsuit
is
about
a
violation
of
the
u.s
constitution.
It
has
absolutely
nothing
to
do
with
immigration,
as
this
public
act
has
nothing
to
do
with
immigration.
Ice
is
still
operating
in
illinois
and
the
only
people
harmed
are
the
employees
here
in
the
county.
A
The
systems
and
the
citizens
that
we
have
that
are
depending
on
these
services
and
those
families
that
are
have
now
have
to
travel
out
of
state
to
potentially
in
most
likely
for-profit
prisons
in
other
states
to
see
their
loved
ones.
So
with
that,
is
there
any
other
thoughts
on
that?
Miss
ryan.

A
Aye,
thank
you
for
that
unanimous
vote.
The
next
item
on
the
agenda
we
and
the
sheriff
can-
you
know,
attest
to
this.
We
we're
lucky
enough
to
find
those
corrections
vans
that
that
are
so
hard
to
find
right
now.
A
So
we
thought
we'd
put
it
on
here
to
allow
him
to
move
on
buying
those
before
somebody
scoops
them
up
so
finance.
It
approved
it.
We
were
using
our
lost
revenue
fund
as
as
outlined
by
the
department
of
treasury,
there's
an
allowed
use
of
that.
So
is
there
a
motion
to
accept
mr
long,
mr
featherling,
any
other
thoughts
on
that.
A
That
will
be
a
roll
call
vote.
Please.
A
A
Besides
the
obviously
the
people
who
are
in
detention
and
their
families,
so
with
anything
else,
is
there
any
other
thoughts?
We
don't
have
new
business
that's
next
week,
but
if
anybody
has
anything
be
happy
to
for
the
betterment
of
the
group,
otherwise
a
motion
to
adjourn
mr
hess
second
we'll
go
with
miss
polka.
