Executive Committee Meeting 11/28/2017 9:00 AM
A
C
B
A
You
I
have
no
requests
for
public
comment
under
we
have
no
presentations
at
this
time.
Approval
of
minutes.
We
do
have
October
24th
2017
as
the
minutes
we're
going
to
approve
today.
The
others
are
shortly
following,
so
we
are
going
to
be
caught
up
for
the
end
of
the
year
for
the
backlog,
so
great
work
with
with
everybody
involved.
A
D
Thank
you.
Mr.
chairman,
at
the
UCI
you
cci
meeting
that
I
attended
learned
that
the
legislature
has
passed
or
with
a
bill
on
the
governor's
signed
that
will
require
for
local
officials
of
sexual
harassment,
training.
We
need
to
at
least
at
this
point,
do
a
resolution
by
January
15th
and
at
your
instruction
I've
been
contacting
the
state's
attorney's
office.
We'll
have
a
resolution
ready
for
us
by
the
January
meeting,
we're
good
and
can
look
at
it.
The
December
the
executive
meeting
probably
are
wherever
is
appropriate.
D
D
Is
one
other
thing
we
heard
from
the
lieutenant
governor
because
she
is
in
charge
of
a
task
force.
Looking
at
the
opiate
crisis
and
based
on
her
presentation,
I
spoke
to
the
sheriff.
There
was
a
program,
some
counties
are
using
called
safe
passage
and
he
says
he's
investigating
this.
Also.
It
may
be
one
tool
that
we
can
use
to
help
in
some
of
the
problems
that
are
created
by
this
crisis
spur.
E
E
E
D
C
Just
just
a
comment,
many
years
seven
or
eight
years
ago
we
had
some
grants
from
the
state
of
Illinois
and
we
directed
those
to
Pembroke
and
we
staffed
three
police
officers
out
in
that
area
covering
all
shifts.
But
when
the
grant
sunsetted
and
came
to
an
end,
we
couldn't
get
any
help
on
that.
So
that
came
to
an
end
because
of
money.
Okay,.
A
Thank
you
and
I
will
say
that's
one
of
the
reasons
that
that
I
sought
out
and
joined
in
on
the
class-action
lawsuit
against
the
opioid
manufacturers,
because
there's
not
only
the
cost
we
see
in
the
coroner's
office
and
on
the
the
courts
and
the
criminal
justice
system
as
a
whole.
But
it's
also
I'm
looking
forward.
You
know
not
to
the
cost.
A
We've
already
paid,
it's
what
we're
gonna
pay
going
forward
and
to
me
this
is
almost
interstate
drug
task
force,
type
situation
with
Indiana
between
the
counties,
Lake
Newton,
Indiana
and
Illinois
State
Police,
because,
like
you
said
it's,
it's
the
heroin
highway
out
there
coming
back
and
forth
between
those
communities
and
even
going
out
towards
the
west
as
well.
So
we
have
some
issues
and
and
nothing's
free
as
they
say,
you've
got
to
be
able
to
fund
the
extra
presence
out
there
to
catch
people.
A
F
No
okay
everything's
been
going
well,
I'm,
hoping
that's
actually
one.
Okay,
I'll
keep
it
brief
here.
Basically,
I
want
to
see
how's
the
sound
system
going
in
your
various
commit
committees.
Has
it
worked
for
you
can
hear
it
clearer.
We
basically
had
to
bypass
the
top
because
they
were
just
too
old,
couldn't
figure
out
what
it
was
gonna
happen.
So
we
just
wired
everything
new
put
it
to
the
side.
A
better
quality
speaker
gonna,
make
sure
the
upgraded
some
of
the
microphones.
They
look
the
same,
but
some
of
them
are
different.
A
F
Know
one
thing
I
do
want
to
say
is
I
felt
like
I
may
have
overstressed
it,
because
I
see
people
not
touching
the
mic
at
all.
That
was
not
my
intention.
That
was
just
if
you're
having
a
problem
hearing
to
get
it
in
this
realm
is
what
you
need
to
do
feel
free
to
touch
it
I
mean
it's
not
gonna,
break
or
anything
and
move
it
to
wherever
you
want
to
so
I.
Hopefully,
I
didn't
make
you
too
nervous
about
touch.
It's
just
a
microphone
yeah.
F
F
We
just
didn't,
have
a
chance
to
meet
it
at
first
we're
gonna
do
a
two-year
ramp
up
of
the
computers,
hopefully
in
the
whole
county,
but
in
this
can
this
building?
Definitely
it's
going
to
happen.
I'm
going
to
do
it
windows!
All
the
machines
here
are
Windows
7.
It
reaches
its
end
of
life
of
2020
I'm,
notifying
people
now
so
people
can
build
it
into
their
budget.
I
can
do
in
our
budget.
It
won't
be
an
additional
cost
to
we
don't
have
an
option.
We
will
be
on
Windows
10
by
that
day.
F
Part
of
the
reason
is
your
antivirus
and
the
things
to
protect
security.
Wise,
don't
mean
anything
if
you're
on
an
end
of
life
into
support
software
because
basically
you've
protected
the
front
door,
but
the
doors
open.
You
will
get
infected
being
that
the
world
government
agency
that
leads
us
up
to
being
sued
we've
got
insurance
policies.
Now,
in
fact,
you
can't
put
a
claim
in
for
something
if
you're
not
meeting
the
regulation.
F
That
says
you
will
have
all
these
standard
things
in
place,
so
we
will
be
doing
that,
but
they
should
not
be
unless
some
something
extraordinary
happens.
It
should
not
be
any
additional
cost
to
you,
but
you
should
know
it
to
ramp
up.
I
started
actually
purchasing
machines
this
year.
So
for
me,
it's
a
three-year
ramp
up.
We're
gonna
do
something
next
year
and
then
that
19
will
do
it
and
we
should
be
able
to
handle
this
building.
F
As
far
as
the
courthouse
in
our
private
or
working
meetings,
I
will
discuss
that
with
the
chief
judge
and
say:
hey
here's
the
standard
we're
going
to
and
the
same
with
the
sheriff
because
they
control
theirs.
We
and
we'll
do
the
work
for
them.
Well,
if
you
make
it
out
of
your
funds,
the
purchase
will
do
that,
but
I
can't
tell
them
what
to
do.
I
control
the
machines
here
so
I'm
going
to
say
that's
what
we're
going
to
do
here.
F
I'm
already
been
working
with
some
department
heads
that
want
to
get
ahead
of
this
anyway.
This
part
in
the
courthouse
state's
attorney's,
already
their
probation
department,
has
already
been
discussing
with
me,
and
they
will
be
there
by
probably
January
or
February
in
this
building.
Laurie,
probably
within
the
first
two
quarters
will
be
there
again.
This
building
isn't
going
to
be
concerned.
We
will
have
it
upgraded,
but
you
just
need
to
know
that
these
things
are
going
to
be
happening.
F
F
Point
yes,
exactly
that's
why
I'm
going
to
heavily
heavily
recommend
over
at
the
courthouse
that
they
do
it
I?
Actually,
don't
foresee
it
being
a
problem,
because
sandy
and
I
have
this
discussed
it
and
again
one
of
the
reasons
we
can
do
it
so
efficiently.
Is
we're
gonna
be
using
refurbished
machines?
This
isn't.
This
upgrade
isn't
a
requirement
because
the
hardware's
not
doing
what
it
needs
to.
We
just
need
to
read
those
reach
those
requirements.
This
make
us
safe
on
their
daily
transactions.
F
So,
instead
of
spending
seven
hundred
to
a
thousand
dollars
a
machine,
we're
gonna
spend
250
to
300
a
machine.
You
can
see
how
that's
a
dramatic
difference
and
since
they've
passed
upgrades
so
many
years,
some
of
them
are
7
or
10
years
old.
That
still
will
be
a
three-fold
increase
in
power.
What
they're
used
to
it
will
exceed
anything
they
need
to
so
you're,
not
hurting
anything,
and,
quite
honestly,
that's
how
we've
been
doing
the
servers,
which
are
the
heavy
duty
machines
for
the
last
five
or
six
years,
we've
been
doing
refurbished
machines.
F
So
we
have
experience
with
this.
There
are
some
individuals
that
require
new,
more
powerful
machines.
Luckily,
almost
all
of
those
are
out
of
a
grant,
so
they
don't
come
out
of
our
pockets
anyway.
The
planning
department,
G,
is
Dell
himself.
They
do
things
that
the
machines
were
gonna
put
in
place
when
it
he
has
grants.
It
pays
for
him.
We've
dealt
with
him.
We've
worked
together
over
years,
but
you
as
a
board.
You
need
to
know
that
this
is
what's
going
on.
F
You
need
to
be
responses,
part
of
a
plan
that
the
board
put
in
effect
a
deck
over
a
decade
ago.
We've
got
a
little
bit
off
of
that
because
you
had
to
you
didn't
have
the
money
to
do
that,
but
there's
certain
things
you
cannot
get
out
of
whack
with
and
that's
the
security
aspects
of
them.
In
fact,
we've
been
increasing
that
over
the
last
couple
years,
so.
A
F
There
you
could
not
place
a
claim,
and
if
you
start
off
with
something
that
you
know
you
should
have
been
done,
what
you
can
guess,
what's
gonna
happen,
if
you
couldn't
now,
hopefully
we
never
ever
have
to
place
a
claim,
but
you
know
it's
the
new
virus
that
you
don't
know
about.
That
hits
you
okay
and
the
last
thing
I'm
going
to
address.
I
need
to
be
careful.
I
say
this,
because
I
don't
want
to
insinuate
that
I
that
you
shouldn't
have
asked
questions
you
all
the
questions
as
a
board.
F
I
believe
that
you've
been
asking
are
actually
excellent
and
they
need
to
be
asked
they
just
need
to
be.
They
need
to
have
a
procedure
that
they
go
through.
One
of
the
things
has
been
coming
up
the
question
from
some
of
the
new
board
members,
but
not
all
of
them,
and
some
of
the
existing
ones
was
as
boardman
as
the
department
heads
in
office.
People
come
and
ask
you
for
additional
workers.
F
The
question
that's
been
rightfully
asked
is:
can
we
automate
or
do
new
software
to
save
doing
that?
Well,
what
we
need
to
understand
is
what
you
as
a
board,
and
your
previous
boards
have
done
you
automated
the
whole
county
15
years
ago.
Every
department
is
automated.
Every
department
runs
on
some
level
at
software.
In
fact,
a
pattern.
Your
own
backed,
is
the
reason
that
they
were
able
to
withstand
the
eight
to
ten
million
dollars
cut
and
budget,
and
the
loss
of
personnel
was
because
of
the
forethought
that
this
board
did
to
put
that
in
place.
F
There
was
no
way
it
was
a
manual
process
that
they
could
have
had
that
big
of
cut
happened
not
happened.
Well,
that
was
when
I
came
on
board.
That
was
a
bush
the
board
pushing
through
not
the
department's
requested,
so
that
actually
did
originate
from
the
board
and
one
of
the
things
that
happened,
the
slasher
to
is,
as
it
goes
on,
we
made
steps
to
make
sure
we
didn't.
We
didn't
increase
the
I
TV
items,
but
we
didn't
hit
it.
We
didn't
take
away
form
it.
F
Yes,
my
budget
went
down
considerably,
but
we
really
restructured
how
things
were
done.
So
we
made
departments
that
we're
using
I
saw
four
more
responsible
for
the
items
that
they
were
going
to
purchase.
So
that's
more
of
a
restructuring
and
how
it
didn't
bother
me
how
you
do
is
up
to
the
board.
You
have
to
reach
your
financial
goals,
but
I
wanted
to
you
understand
is
you
did
put
in
place?
The
automated
all
departments
are
automated,
so,
yes,
that
is
in
place.
F
No
additional
software
is
not
going
to
answer
the
specific
questions
that
are
coming
up
now,
that's
not
advocating
for
anybody
to
have
additional
employees
I'm,
just
the
questions
were
put
out
there.
These
are
things
you
should
know.
You
have
done
the
steps
that
you
needed
to
do
or
they're
more
you
can
do.
Potentially,
when
you
have
money,
there
are
more
things
you
can
do.
You
have
budget
constraints
that
are
limiting
you
not
from
the
one
that
you
guys
want
to
do
an
additional.
F
The
last
thing
is
some
of
the
departments
that
were
discussed
about
looking
at
new
software.
You
need
to
be
very
careful
of
opening
that
can't
formed
whether
it's
the
assessor's
office
or
the
court
system
or
the
sheriff's
office.
Those
would
be
the
biggest
items
that
you
would
have
ever
dealt
with
since
you've
been
here.
They
would
dwarf
any
union
contract
or
anything
you've
dealt
with
when
we
do
the
court
system.
Software
we're
talking
multiple
millions
of
dollars.
Annual
maintenance
fees
are
of
a
hundred
fifty
hundred
seventy
five
thousand
dollars
a
year.
So
I'm
sorry.
G
F
10
has
been
out
for
two
or
three
years:
we've
been
testing
it
on
all
apps.
The
only
one
we
haven't
fully
touched
on
is
the
dev
net
in
here,
but
the
court
system
in
the
sheriff
system
is
actually
when
it
had
been
Wendell
10
compliant.
It's
not
it's
new,
but
it's
not
the
newest
thing
right.
When
it
first
comes
out.
No
none
of
them
being
complained,
and
there
are
two
separate
issues
but
you're
right
they
have
to
be
addressed.
You
can't
move
to
one,
it
breaks
the
other.
F
Almost
all
of
your
employees
have
access
to
email
or
the
internet.
That's
the
danger!
Nobody
is
ever
breaking
into
your
network.
It's
an
employee
clicking
on
something
that
impacts
the
whole
the
whole
network.
Well,
you
can't
transact
business
without
without
that.
So
you
have
that.
But
again
the
questions
you're
asking
should
be
asked.
It's
just.
You
should
ask
amongst
yourself.
F
You
should
definitely
go
through
the
Chairman
because
he's
more
aware
because
of
negotiation,
this
discussion
what's
going
on
and
it
that
something
would
be
happen
in
this
committee
or
the
appropriate
committee
for
what
you're
asking
that
question
so
that
I
don't
want
anybody
to
not
ask
it,
but
you
have
done
a
lot
already.
You've
done
a
a
considerable.
You
were
ahead
of
most
counties
throughout
the
state.
When
you
moved
as
a
board,
you
still
are.
Are
there
there
are
some
questions
coming
up
by
the
Working
Committee
over
at
the
courthouse?
F
That's
not
whether
or
not
you
automated
are
automated
they're
talking
about
going
to
the
next
stage.
But
again
these
are
multi
millions
and
the
dollars.
You
need
to
be
careful
what
you
bring
yourself
into,
because
if
you
should
had
to
share
the
cost
of
that,
do
you
even
have
the
funds
even
with
the
sheriffs
again,
these
are
multi-million
departments.
The
the
sheriffs
system
runs
all
the
major
law
enforcement
throughout
the
county.
F
So
while
it
sounds
like
a
cheaper
options
in
the
body,
it's
far
more
expensive
than
other
things
so
and
you
have
done
a
lot
so
I'm,
just
letting
you
know
what
you've
done,
what
the
repercussions
of
going
down
that
road
and
there
it's
not
the
cheaper
option.
Quite
honestly,
on
the
larger
office,
it's
by
far
the
more
expensive
option
doesn't
mean
you
don't
consider
it,
but
you
need
to
have
that
information,
as
you
may
have
your
discussions.
F
Half
and
while
actually
prior
to
that
when
I
came
in,
we
downsides
I
believe
one
time
they
were
four
or
five.
So
as
we've
automated
were
even
smaller,
we're
not
at
the
level
that
we
want
to
be.
But
nobody
is
it's
not
something
you
cry
about.
Everybody
needs
more.
No,
you
just
get
the
work
done
and
you
know
wait
for
when
there's
a
better
day,
but
no
we're
we're
less
than
we
ever
have.
We
have
more
computers,
more
systems
than
we
ever
have.
F
But
then
again
you
see
me
every
time
the
meeting
I
don't
come
back
and
ask
for
more
is
just
every
departments
got
to
deal
with
the
budget
that
they
they
have
we're
not
alone.
Everybody
else
is
having
to
deal
with
the
same
problems.
Fifth
floor,
there's
way
more
less
people
up
on
the
fifth
floor
than
when
I
started
here.
Maybe
if
I
have
I,
don't
know
how
you
guys
same
with
the
third
floor,
I,
don't
know
how
people
are
getting
the
work
done
at
the
level
of
that,
partly
automation,
it's
what
Stephanie
with.
C
H
F
This,
since
we're
the
only
one
the
Sheriff's
Department
works
closely
with
me.
Originally
all
their
purchases
went
through
me
since
they
now
have
their
own
funding
source
that
that's
separate,
but
I
have
more
experience,
so
they
still
check
with
me
all
the
other
departments,
which
would
be
two-thirds
of
the
computers
were
than
what
they
have
were
the
ones
that
implement
everything.
So
and
that's
it's
never
been
a
question
about
it.
You
may
not
see
the
the
court
system,
but
we
we
have
regular
meetings
over
there
and
they
address
it.
They
have
their
own
funding
source.
F
Your
contribution
of
the
board
to
their
projects
is
my
department.
We
provide
the
labor
and
then
they
provide
the
funds
to
purchase
the
software
it's
different
than
other
counties,
but
that
allowed
them
initially
to
make
bigger
purchases
and
let
the
money
go
farther
on
some
of
the
counties
are
size
are
larger.
They
actually
have
their
own
IT
staff.
That's
originally.
When
I
took
over
that's
where
we
thought
we
were
going
to
be
at,
but
subsequently
things
happened.
F
A
F
Certain
de
state's
attorney
that
our
current
State's
Attorney's
been
doing
that
either
out
of
grants
or
recovered
from
I
believe
from
Rico
Rico
or
something
like
that.
But
years
ago,
I
had
to
put
them
in
there.
Well,
we
don't
have
the
budget
to
put
in
like
that,
but
they
everybody's
been
cooperative,
all
departments
here
they
all
they
have
no
ability
to
even
put
it
on
the
network
and
they
get
working
something
without
going
I.
H
Think
it
was
obvious,
make
sure
they
kind
of
checking.
We
had
a
central
area
so
that
we
one
hand
doesn't
know
the
other
hand
is
going,
but
and
with
that
I
will
ship
I
know
that
you
all
and
I
Tia.
You
have
to
do
the
work
of
25
people
into
one,
and
sometimes
we
don't
say
enough,
but
I
do
appreciate
the
work
that
you
do
do
and
now
you
have
stepped
up
and
basically,
when
we
wanted
to
basically
initiate
a
party
in
this
project,
you
were
able
to
come
in
and
basically
do
it.
F
That
and
again
I
wanted
you
to
be.
This
is
more
empowering
you
with
the
knowledge,
the
fact
that
you've
done
a
lot
its
board
back
10
years,
going
currently
you've.
Everything-
that's
happened
here
for
the
most
part
initiated
from
the
board.
So
it's
not
that
you've
not
been
doing
something.
You
were
ahead
of
the
game
as
a
board,
so
I
also
wanted
to.
Let
you
know
is
it's
not
as
simple
as
what
can
we
do
software
for
some
things?
In
the
case,
it
may
be
five
times
the
cost
of
dealing
with
something
else.
A
K
J
Hear
it
that
time
well,
I
have
to
say
that
we
started
a
new
program
in
our
department,
we're
calling
it
homeless
Tuesday
we're
not
the
first
V
AC
to
start
it.
A
couple
other
V
ACS
throughout
the
state
started
this.
There
is
a
grant
that
is
funded
to
nonprofits
locally.
It's
Catholic
Charities,
Chicago
region,
land,
Catholic
Charities.
They
cover
us
Kendall
cane
Joliet
will
Grundy
Iroquois
I'm
sure
I'm
missing
the
county
in
there,
but
either
way.
J
Ssvf
stands
for
supportive
services
for
veterans
and
their
families,
its
money
given
to
the
VA
for
these
nonprofits
to
help
homeless
veterans
and
the
good
thing
about
it
is.
Although,
by
statute
we
can't
help
veterans
with
bad
conduct
or
dishonorable
discharges
they
can
as
long
as
they're
homeless.
They
can
help
them,
even
if
they
have
a
bad
discharge,
get
them
into
a
rental
or
help
pay
for
mortgage
up
to
six
months.
So
it's
a
great
thing
and
you
always
hear
of
their
never
doing
in
for
homeless
veterans.
J
Well,
they've
been
throwing
a
lot
of
money
to
get
this
problem
solved,
so
Catholic
Charities
comes
in
on
Tuesdays
and
so
does
a
homeless
coordinator
from
the
VA
and
and
they
meet
in
our
office.
Thanks
to
having
this
floor
and
more
room,
we're
able
to
bring
those
people
in
and
anybody
we've
identified
as
homeless
comes
through
on
that
Tuesday
and
we
get
all
services.
It's
like
a
one-stop
shop
to
help
them
as
much
as
possible.
We
can
give
them
hygiene
supplies
that
have
been
donated
through
our
office.
J
We
just
got
five
hundred
pairs
of
socks
that
will
County
VA
see
shared
with
us.
They
got
twenty
five
hundred.
They
didn't
think
they
could
get
rid
of
those,
so
they
gave
us
five
hundred.
So
if
you
know
any
veterans
need
socks,
we
have
plenty
of
socks,
but
it's
a
one-stop
shop
just
to
help
veterans
and
their
family,
so
that's
been
going
well
and
that
that
happens
this
afternoon
we
currently
have
four
participants
in
veteran's
treatment
Court
for
now
under
consideration.
Another
report
says
five,
but
one
has
dropped
off.
J
They
drop
off
due
to
the
fact
of
lack
of
participation,
while
someone's
going
through
the
process
of
consideration.
They
have
to
show
up
to
court,
they
have
to
go
to
probation
if
they've
showed
a
lack
of
interest.
We
just
take
them
off
the
books
after
a
long
period
and
usually
it's
a
two
month
period.
It's
not
like,
they
don't
show
up
once
and
we
just
kind
of
say
you're,
not
in
the
program.
J
We
give
them
ample
time,
I
call
them
I
left
messages,
we're
trying
to
keep
them
in
the
loop
to
try
and
get
them
in
the
program.
So
that's
unfortunate.
We
probably
don't
won't,
have
a
graduation,
probably
until
late
spring,
maybe
summer,
we'll
see
when
that
happens.
I'm
not
sure
other
things
to
talk
about
on
here
is
I
was
in
Seattle
for
a
Leadership
Summit.
J
J
They
have
a
military
software
and
systems
Academy
where
they
it's
free
to
veterans
they
can
log
in
and
if
they
already
have
their
a
plus,
then
they
can
help
them
with
a
little
bit
more
training
and
they
guarantee
an
interview
with
Microsoft
and
their
partners--
systems
throughout
the
United
States.
So
I'm
working
on
that
actually
still
for
here
before
I
leave,
I,
don't
think
I'll
get
in
place,
but
I'm
gonna
leave
all
the
contacts
and
all
the
information
to
move
that
on
will.
J
County
actually
has
a
program
to
where,
if
you
have
little
to
no
computer
skills
and
I,
don't
know
how
long
the
program
is,
but
you
get
a
free
laptop
and
you
they
provide
the
space.
Someone
comes
in
and
trains
them
to
get
them.
What
is
it
Kevin
compte
I
certified
something
like
that:
a
plus
certified
basically
to
get
a
job.
It's
an
entry-level
computer
person
to
get
a
job
no
cost
to
the
veteran,
but
it's
just
trying
to
get
them
re
skilled
and
get
them
re-employed,
because
there's
so
many
unemployed
veterans
out
there.
J
Okay,
so
so
with
that
said,
this
is
my
last
meeting.
If
you
don't
know,
I
took
position
in
Grand,
Traverse,
City
Michigan,
so
the
first
year
my
family
and
I
are
all
moving
to
Michigan
I.
Thank
you.
For
my
time
here
it's
been
great.
I
do
enjoy
a
lot
of
people
here.
I'm
gonna
miss
the
area.
Again.
My
wife
and
I
grew
up
here.
Never
thought
of
ever
leaving
the
area
after
the
military,
never
thought,
leaving
the
area
and
I.
J
If
we
can't
find
your
job,
what
are
we
gonna
do
I
said:
that's
a
great
question:
can
I
work
somewhere
for
cash
or
something
to
get
money
quickly?
I
have
rent
I
have
a
little
kid.
I
have
this.
He
said
we'll
go
down
to
this
VA
see
down
the
street
they're
gonna
help
you
with
a
rent
or
something
so
I
went
down
there
and
talked
to
mr.
Campbell,
who
was
there
it's
time
they
paid
one
month's
rent
paid
some
utilities
and
gave
me
a
voucher.
J
I
went
and
got
groceries
and
then
I
found
a
job
two
weeks
later
and
I
never
needed
it
after
that.
So
I'm
kind
of
a
product
of
that
office,
and
it
was
great
that
I
utilized
it
and
then
they
come
full
circle
and
then
run
it.
So
when
I
had
hired
I
told
them,
it'd
be
a
great
honor
to
do
that
and-
and
it
has
been-
and
you
know
for
me-
it's
been
great
to
take
the
office
from
what
it
was
to
what
it
is
today.
J
It
was
a
huge
upgrade
and
it
helps
with
the
services
that
we're
going
to
be
able
to
provide
starting
treatment.
The
veteran's
treatment
Court
with
judge,
wins
Minh
and
getting
that
off
the
ground.
I
have
no
doubt
that
I'm,
just
a
cog
in
the
many
parts
to
keep
that
going
myself
and
Karen.
My
assistant
are
the
only
two
founding
members
left
on
the
veteran's
treatment
Court.
Everybody
else
has
been
swapped
out
with
appointments
or
elected
officials.
J
So,
and
it's
been
going
seamless
so
once
they
swap
me
out,
it'll
still
remain
the
same,
I'm
sure
everybody
will
be
strong.
Judge,
Cramer
and
the
teams
have
been
doing
great.
I
have
no
worries
about
that
at
all.
As
for
my
replacement,
those
interviews
are
happening.
The
end
of
this
week,
we
hopefully
are
able
to
announce
my
replacement
next
week
and
get
that
person
started
by
the
middle
of
December
and
I
can
help
train
them
for
a
couple
weeks
before
I
head
out
of
town
with
that
said,
thank
you
very
much
for
coming.
I'm.
I
Sure
I
speak
for
the
entire
board
in
our
entire
county
board
that
thank
you
for
your
services
and
it's
the
testimony
to
your
leadership
that
this
is
going
to
be
a
seamless,
quote/unquote,
seamless
change
and
especially
a
Veterans
Court.
Having
been
to
most
of
them.
It
is
one
of
the
finest
things
I
have
seen
that
with
our
county
has
done,
and
it's
because
of
your
leadership
and
Jody
Wetteland
that
that
happens,
but
I'm
sure,
as
a
county
I
know
that
we're
gonna
wish
I
have
known
you
for
since
you're
a
little
guy
yeah.
J
A
J
A
Moving
on
personnel,
HR
issues,
Linda
Linda,
Mackin
she's,
not
down
here
today,
you
want
to
administrative
issues,
the
appointments,
repoint
myths
and
such
appointment
of
Steven
tell
you
what
I'll
read
them
and
then
we'll
do
a
motion
to
combine
and
approve
appointment
of
Steven
decoy
to
the
Ethics
Commission,
that's
the
former.
Just
so
everybody
knows
it's
the
former
police
chief
and
Bradley.
It's
our
final
addition
to
the
Ethics
Commission
to
bring
it
up
to
five
reappointment.
L
J
A
A
A
D
A
A
Include
the
unreeling
to
Dwayne
Ferris
to
the
mcgillvary
drainage
district,
thanks
for
catching
that,
so
do
you
still
make
the
motion?
Yes,
okay
still
have
a
second
all
those
in
favor
aye.
Those
opposed
motion
carries
under
openings.
I
have
one
opening
I'm
a
kinky
County
Board
of
Health,
two
openings
on
the
Kankakee
County
Regional
Planning
Commission
ongoing,
should
I
say
those
are
two
long-standing
appointments.
If
anybody
knows
anybody,
please
send
in
my
direction
that
what
you
think
would
be
good
serving
on
that
committee.
Mr.
OHS.
A
A
A
So
yeah
that
was
just
wide
open:
six
openings
on
the
Board
of
Examiners
and
appeals.
We
have
asked
we
sent
our
letters
for
reappointment
on
Mo's
or
an
engineer
architect:
commercial
contractor,
residential
contractor
electrician
and
plumber,
one
opening
on
the
job,
drainage
district,
one
opening
on
the
manteno
drainage
district
number,
three
one
open
behind
the
manteno
number,
nine
drainage
district
and
one
opening
on
the
yellow
head:
Washington,
Union
drainage,
district
number,
two,
it's
drainage
district
season,
so
other
business
starting
off
the
Convention
and
Visitors
Bureau
IgA
agreement
just
for
explanation
purposes.
A
Lg's
must
have
been
about
ten
months
ago.
It
seems,
like
you
know,
right
after
a
couple
months
in
office,
so
we
were
approached
by
the
convention,
Visitors
Bureau,
to
add
to
do
to
amend
the
intergovernmental
agreement
or
actually
redo
the
integral
in
agreement
when
expired,
to
allow
for
higher
MRF
to
be
offered
to
their
employees.
A
At
that
time,
I
listened
to
the
position
of
the
the
CVB
I
went
to
our
state's
attorney,
which
is
what
we
do
and
we
had
them
assess
the
legality
from
that
side
of
things
I'm
using
tourism
dollars
to
to
fund
I
MRF
for
non-governmental
employees.
So
at
that
time,
after
a
thorough
research
on
our
state's
attorneys
part,
they
said
they
did
not
believe
in
their
official
opinion,
was
that
that
was
a
proper
use
of
tourism
dollars
and
they
didn't
recommend
that
I
agreed
with
it
and
that
we
would
get
into
that
relationship.
A
Okay,
that's
one
question
that
is
central
to
all
of
this
and
it's
it's
kind
of
a
something
I'm
hearing
and
a
lot
of
other
CVB's
CVPs
are
looking
at
to
see
what
the
answer
is
going
to
be
around
the
state.
Obviously,
you
may
have
seen
the
article
in
a
newspaper
about
this
after
Kankakee
passed
their
version
of
the
new
IgA
going
forward,
so
that
is
a
little
bit
of
the
history
of
why
we're
at
where
we're
at.
A
As
far
as
you
know,
the
discussion
we're
going
to
have
today,
the
current
agreement
is
set
to
expire
on
April
30th
2018,
while
I'm
sure
you
know
I'm,
not
gonna
speak
for
anybody
else,
but
I
am
sure
that
we
probably
won't
have
an
answer
back
from
the
Attorney
General.
By
that
point,
it's
the
control
tomorrow,
but
I
mean
we've
got
a
lot
of
things
down
at
the
attorney
general's
office.
A
A
It's
an
agreement
to
extend
for
I
believe
six
months,
what
you
read
it
again:
yeah
six
months
from
April
30th
on
to
extend
the
current
agreement,
which
is
the
one
we
executed
back
in
2012
I,
believe
yeah
I
could
read
it
minutes.
Yeah
is
through
2012
or
2013
I
care.
We
did
amend
it.
So
I
can't
remember
the
exact
date
when
we
changed
the
percentage,
so
the
the
conversation
that
I
guess
I
wanted
to
have
with
the
executive
committee,
because
this
is
your
purview
for
the
entire
county
board
or
their
committee
system.
A
Here
the
form
of
government
is
we're.
Looking
at
a
couple
of
different
issues.
First
of
all,
do
we
want
to
extend
the
agreement
and
wait
while
waiting
for
the
Attorney
General
to
make
their
decision
on
whether
this
is
a
appropriate
use
of
tourism
dollars?
If
you
will,
that
is
one
side
of
it.
The
other
question
is:
is:
does
this
board
in
this
committee
specifically
believe
that
we
want
to
take
on
IMR
F
liability
for
non
government
employees?
That
is
a
central
question.
A
If
you
know
we
say
yes,
we'll
let
them
on.I
MRF
if
we
form
that
as
far
as
buyouts
and
all
these
other
stipulations,
you
know
things
that
go
with
that.
The
pension
liability,
the
question
that
I
need
to
and
I'm
going
to
open
this
up
for
discussion
to
the
board
and
get
people's
opinions
on
even
if
it
were
deemed
legal.
Would
you
want
to
have
that
liability
extend
to
the
county
to
cover
off
a
non
governmental
employee?
A
That's
what
I
need
to
find
out,
because
if
the
other
municipalities
have
all
agreed
to
this,
but
I'm
have
haven't
seen
their
minutes,
everyone
in
their
meetings,
I,
don't
this
discussion
ever
happened,
but
it's
my
job
to
make
sure
it
happens
here
so
start
off
with
mr.
Bern,
I,
guess,
initial
comments
and
questions
I
thank.
E
You,
mr.
chairman,
I'm
gonna,
make
the
initial
motion
to
let
this
current
agreement
expire
for
one
non
government
employees.
My
personal
thing,
don't
believe
long
that
I
am
ref.
We
need
to
be
subtracting
that
addition,
adding
we're
dealing
with
staffing
issues
in
the
county
where
we're
down
to
public
safety
is
a
stake
I'm
for
one
that
would
vote
against
this
I.
Don't
think
we
need
to
have
not
I
mean
a
non-governmental
entity,
could
get
a
403b
ORS
go
down
that
adventure,
but
I
think
right
now
in
the
fiscal
shape
of
the
county.
E
D
L
A
A
K
K
K
A
Can
do
their
own
take
a
deceive.
Eb
would
not
cease
to
exist,
they
would
still
have
their
IgA
with
all
the
municipalities.
There
are
one
thing
I
made
sure
of
is
before
I
got
to
this
meeting
is
to
have
those
legal
discussions
with
the
state's
attorney's
office,
because
if
the
board
said
that,
for
the
amount
of
liability
we're
assuming
and
for
the
fuel
amount
of
revenue
dollars
that
come
from
county,
only
hotels
and
motels
and
I
believe
there's
two
and
I'm
waiting
for
the
treasurer.
A
To
give
me
the
exact
amount
of
money,
the
liability
we
assumed
my
opinion
and
I
don't
act
for
the
board
I
act
on
behalf
of
the
board.
My
opinion
was:
is
that
we're
assuming
more
liability
than
we're
actually
contributing
to
the
to
the
mix?
Okay,
now
again,
I've
got
to
get
those
numbers
from
the
treasurer,
but
originally
I
was
told
it
was
just
a
couple,
and
so
most
of
those
are
in
the
municipalities,
and
so
the
way
this
is
written.
I
have
some
profound
issues
with
the
way
this
contract
was
put
in
front
of
me.
A
A
Okay
or
we
can
intend
to
let
it
expire,
and
then
we
could
work
on
negotiating
what
our
new
agreement
would
be,
and
then,
but
central
to
that
whole
discussion
is:
do
you
believe
that
you,
the
county's
taxpayers,
is
willing
to
accept
a
non-governmental
employee
being
funded
on
the
liability
side
and
I
MRF?
That
is
central
to
this
dis
discussion?
A
That's
what
I
have
to
ask
the
Executive
Committee,
because
that's
what
we're
really
deciding
here,
it's
not
whether
we
want
to
be
part
of
the
CVB
I,
think
we
all
do
and
I
think
we
all
believe
in
the
work
that
they
do
and
that
the
funding
mechanisms
we
committed
to
making
sure
they
were
funded.
You
remember
we're
the
ones
who
up
the
tax
with
did
you
know
we
had
to
vote
here
to
do
it.
K
A
We
do
not
that's
one
of
the
issues
in
this
contract
that
I
have
a
problem
with,
and
it
basically
says
that
if
we
have
to
spend
the
time
and
treasure
to
collect
on
people
who
aren't
paying,
we
have
to
turn
over
the
late
fees
to
the
CVB.
That's
what
it
says
in
here
that
all
of
that
I'm
reading
it
right
here,
and
so
you
know
and
there's
other
things
in
there.
A
That
say
that
you
know
we
were
able
to
be
reimbursed,
for
you
know
our
our
effort
and
doing
those
things,
but
the
late
fees
would
go
to
the
CVV
where
that's
not
that's,
not
their
activities.
Our
treasurer's
office
is
in
our
state's
attorney's
office,
and
the
people
to
collect
would
be
the
ones
that
are
getting
those
fees.
So
that's
part,
but
again,
I
want
to
have
those
conversations
with
the
CVB.
You
know
we
haven't
had
the
negotiating
session.
I
haven't,
got
any
calls
to
sit
down
and
negotiate
the
contract.
A
D
A
D
A
Why
we
need
to
have
the
discussion,
because
why
don't
we
waste
everybody's
time
and
go
through
all
these
mechanisms?
If
we
think
that
a
government
employee
you
know
or
someone
who's,
not
a
government
employee
should
get
IMRA,
that's
central
to
what
we
do
here
at
the
county
is
widening
people's
money.
Mr.
D
A
I
A
Point
whether
there's
three
or
there's
five
full-time
employees-
okay,
we
have
no
control
over
the
hiring
or
firing
of
the
organization,
yet
the
staffing
levels,
so
the
other.
The
other
thing
is,
is
that
whether
the
Attorney
General
says
it
is
legal
or
not,
do
we
think
it's
a
good
use
of
taxpayer
money
to
fund
an
I
government
employee,
with
liability
of
IMR
F,
that's
what
I'm
getting
at
and
if
we
have
to
buy
ourselves
out,
we
have
to
buy
out
the
IRF
liability
as
well.
Don't.
H
A
I'm
just
drunk
I'm,
not
sure
they
were
we're
all
in
the
same
page
I'm,
not
saying
don't.
Do
it
I'm
telling
you
my
concerns
from
a
financial
side
of
things
and,
frankly,
a
government
side
of
things.
I,
don't
think
it's
a
good
idea,
but
that's
why
we
have
committees
and
if
you
say,
do
something
else
and
that's
fine.
Mr.
mr.
McConnell,
mr.
I
Chair
I
would
agree
with
you,
I,
don't
think
we
as
a
county
would
want
to
take
on
an
additional
liability
for
one
I
think
we
ought
to
our
state's
attorney
says
we
shouldn't
be
using
tax
dollars
to
do
this.
Why
would
we
even
be
considering
this
until
we
hear
from
the
state's
attorney
in
general,
but
I
think
this
is
not
a
good
idea
of
spending
tax
dollars
to
do
that
and
take
it
on
the
other
thing
is
taking
on
the
additional
liability.
We
can't.
I
A
G
G
A
G
I
I
would
be
in
favor
of
extending
the
old
agreement,
as
is
but
not
in
favor
of
an
iron.
Our
IMR
F
agreement
going
forward
with
the
visitors
funding
a
visitor.
You
know,
leave
it
as
how
they've
been
operating
I
can
I
can
deal
with
that
part
of
it,
but
I
cannot
move
it
forward
into
a
more
costly
endeavor
for
the
cows.
So.
A
G
That
which
is
actually
I
would
think
it
would
be
bad
bad
publicity
for
the
county
to
not
have
an
agreement
with
the
Visitors
Bureau
at
the
time
you
know
so
any
kind
of
agreement
other
than
what's
gonna
cost
us
more
money.
I
can
see
we
should
vote
for,
but
I
am
not
in
favor
of
supporting
an
IRF
mm-hm
per
whatever
their
employee
might
eventually
be.
You
know
if
I'd
like
to
see
that
Bureau
grow
and
if
it
grows
that
could
be
really
costly
for
the
county.
That's
right
sure.
A
Future
and
to
your
point,
I
think:
there's
issues
with
the
current
agreement
as
well.
Okay,
there
used
to
be
stipulations
and
there
were
a
appointing
agency
could
call
up
and
get
financial
information
anytime.
They
want
I.
Did
that
and
was
told
it
had
to
be
the
ask
the
Executive
Board
if
I
can
get
the
financials
of
the
CVB
I
have
a
problem
with
that.
Well,
if.
A
Well,
no,
they
cooperated
afterwards
I'm
just
saying,
though,
those
used
to
be
part
of
the
old
agreement,
because
I
looked
them
all
up.
Okay,
there's
things
that
aren't
in
the
current
agreement
that
were
there
before
so
again,
I
didn't
want
to
come
in
this
half
cocktail
of
my
own
personal
opinions
about
unfunded
pension
liability
dictate
the
conversation.
Okay,
I
kind
of
did
the
homework
back
then,
and
now
so
I
attempted
to
agree
with
what
you
said.
You
know
we
don't
necessarily
have
to
you
know
just
let
it
expire.
A
We
could
use
this
time
between
now
and
April
to
find
some
common
ground,
but,
as
it's
been
put
to
me
and
now
put
to
the
Attorney
General
every
other
municipality
and
Kent
key
counties
through
this,
except
for
us,
so
I
just
don't
personally
feel
we
should
approve
it
as
it
stands
right
now.
So
again,
mr.
Snipes,
no.
H
H
H
So
if
you
do
nothing
you,
it
expires
in
six
months,
but
a
gives
you
the
opportunity
to
talk
and
come
with
a
renewed
application.
Hopefully
the
Attorney
General
will
respond
by
the
end.
If
not,
what
they're
requesting
is
an
additional
six
months
old?
Do
we
have
to
really
vote
on
it
now,
or
can
we
look
back
at
it
after
the
first
of
the
year
to
see
if
we
got
the
necessary
information?
H
I
have
no
objections
to
the
extended
agreement,
but
I
there's
a
caveat
where
I
am
concerned
as
to
the
opinion
of
the
Attorney
General
as
it
comes
to
iMRS
and
I,
preface
that
because
when
I
was
in
the
city
and
I
saw
them
and
said
they
can
enter
and
exit
when
they
want.
However,
that's
not
the
Constitution
if
you
enter
it's
very
difficult
to
exit
or
whatever
as
far
as
that's
concerned,
so
it
is
important
that
we
look
at
it
before
we
jump
into
of
that
I
believe
how
hard,
if
you
don't
have
correct
information.
H
H
If
you
do,
then
it
can
open
up
the
can
of
worms
to
others
as
it
goes
down
the
road,
but
is
something
that
the
board
will
have
to
consider
and
because
we
are
going
to
have
a
meeting
of
the
whole
I
believe
tomorrow,
or
is
it
there's
everything
else?
Oh,
that's
full
board
meeting
tomorrow
full
board
meeting
tomorrow
right,
so
let
me
know
the
whole
tomorrow
ever
you
know
it's
gonna
be
really
the
decision
of
the
County
Board.
If
it
comes
from
this
committee,
I
would
need
the
pros
and
cons.
H
If
then,
Attorney
General
a
decision
do
come
down,
then
we
can
internalize
that
information
and
and
move
forward.
As
far
as
that's
concerned,
so
I'm
wondering,
if
we're
putting
the
car
really
before
the
horse
and
just
coming
I,
think
it's
more
I
would
prefer
to
be
more
informational
without
having
to
move
until
we
hear
from
both
sides.
Well,
you
all.
A
Find-
and
so
you
know
the
I
guess
the
horse
before
the
cart
on
this
is,
do
you
know?
Do
you
want
to
extend
this
agreement
and
you
can
I
am
asking
you
to
consider
whether
you
know
we
want
to
extend
it
past,
April,
30th
and
part
of
that
decision-making
process
says
you
know.
Even
if
we
do
extend
it,
would
you
ever
accept
it
not
count
a
non-government
employee
on
our
I
Emma
for
RF
liability?
That
is
the
motion.
Then
the
second
that's
on
the
floor.
A
H
A
So,
on
behalf
of
the
CVB,
we're
taking
it
to
the
next
level
to
get
clarification
from
the
attorney
general's
office
to
get
a
more
of
a
final
decision,
there's
a
difference
of
opinion.
Your
visor
has
said:
we
don't
think
that
this
is
appropriate
and
that's
our
legal
opinion
of
you
know
six
civil
attorneys
and
in
the
state's
attorney,
so
that
that
is
the
way
this
all
shook
out.
I
just
didn't
act
arbitrarily
I
sent
it
up
and
said
can't
we
even
do
this
right.
D
A
Sir
came
back
as
no
there's
a
differing
opinion
from
the
CVB,
so
that's.
Why
we're
given
the
respect
to
that
organization
and
to
the
board
to
say,
let's
send
it
on
to
see
what
the
Attorney
General
has
to
say
as
the
arbiter
of
these
kind
of
things,
then
we're
back
to
the
point
of
even
if
they
say
it
is
legit
and
you
can
do
it.
Should
we
write?
That's
that's
an
overarching
question
that
I'm
asking
this
committee
right
now
so
and
and
so
from
bad
I.
A
C
The
IMR
F
has
a
bevy
of
lawyers
and
we
need
to
ask
them
also
the
Attorney
General,
the
IMR
F
board
and
our
state's
attorney
and
I
don't
see
any
need
to
address
this
issue
in
a
vote
until
like
January
as
mr.
Snipes
brought
up
I
think
we
gather
some
more
information
hashes
around
I'd
like
to
study
that
agreement
and
now
a
that,
but
I
think
that
we
could
have
you
negotiate
with
them
to
absolve
the
issues
that
we
have
in
a
new
agreement.
C
There's
issues
in
the
present
agreement
that
we
may
not
want
to
extend
and
then
there's
issues
on
the
IMR
F
and
we
have
until
April
I
I,
like
mr.
Snipes
said,
I
would
like
to
kick
this
can
down
the
road
to
January
and
do
some
more
get
some
more
information.
I'm
not
prepared
to
vote
on
this
at
this
point.
I
need
more
information
to
vote
on
this
right.
I'm,
a
supporter
of
the
CVB,
but
I
know
that
we
cannot
extend
that
IMR
F
if
we
have
opinions
against
that.
K
A
D
A
D
M
C
M
Well,
since
I'm
reading
the
IMR
f,
if
we
do
not
have
control
over
the
employees,
I,
don't
think
we
should
be
responsible
for
their
Aymara.
That's
right
and
if
you
read
their
definition
of
codes,
if
they're
not
an
employee
of
ours,
I
know
how
we
could
be
responsible
for
mrl,
so
I
don't
think
we
should
take
that
on
in
any
way.
A
Freudian
the
question
that
you
know
before
here
was
you
know,
even
if
do
we
philosophically
believe
that
we
should
be
taken
on
that
pension
liability
and
so
down
the
road?
We
will
have
that
other
discussion
on
extending
the
agreement,
but
I
thought
again.
We
had
to
have
that
discussion
here,
because
all
of
that
other
would
be
moot
if
we
didn't
agree
as
an
executive
committee
that
a
non
county
employee
could
receive
County,
I
MRF
liability.
Does
that
make
sense?
A
N
To
thank
you
all
for
taking
the
time
to
have
this
discussion
as
the
director
of
the
CBI
to
say.
Thank
you
for
the
comments
of
of
support
of
what
we
do
do,
and
certainly
with
the
representative
on
the
board,
being
your
chairman,
we're
working
for
the
betterment
of
the
entire
county,
not
just
the
two
employees
that
would
be
eligible.
What
I
do
want
to
say
is
that
the
request
for
this
conversation
was
sent
to
mr.
N
wheeler
for
the
extension,
so
I
do
agree
and
I
am
an
advocate
for
tabling
the
discussion
for
the
IRF,
because
I
do
believe.
Those
are
two
separate
functions.
The
the
the
progress
and
the
success
of
the
CVB
is
certainly
in
the
favor
of
everyone
who
lives
and
works
in
this
community.
The
timeline
from
my
perspective
is
that
mr.
wheeler
did
request
the
financials
for
our
organization.
I
requested
approval
from
our
Executive
Committee,
because
they
have
the
financial
oversight
for
the
board,
as
the
director
I
would
I
would
think.
N
The
the
new
IgA
for
the
that
included
the
request
to
apply
for
IMR
F
was
sent
to
mr.
wheeler,
who
then
discussed
it
with
the
state's
attorney,
as
he
said
and
was
sent
to.
This
was
sent
to
the
Attorney
General.
We
were
informed
that
it
went
to
the
Attorney
General.
Without
having
a
conversation,
we
did
request
to
have
the
conversation
and
certainly
I,
know
it's
your
right
as
any
organization
to
make
sure
that
it
is
legal.
But
we
would.
N
L
And
to
address
one
of
your
concerns,
yes,
I
am
familiar
with
the
IMR
at
I
am
professional
friends
with
the
general
counsel.
There
I
did
have
a
conversation
with
her
before
the
intergovernmental
agreement
was
I.
Don't
think,
there's
any
question
that
there
that,
as
an
instrumentality,
the
CBB
being
a
not-for-profit
can
be,
and
it
can
receive.
I
am
arrived.
That's
not
a
question
that
it's
absolutely
legal.
It's
in
the
statute,
the
question
I
believe
the
aid.
L
The
attorney-general
question
was
whether
the
hotel
revenue
funds
could
be
used
for
that
purpose
and
I'm
of
the
opinion
that
they
can
be.
If
they
can
be
used
for
salaries,
then
certainly
they
can
be
used
for
benefits,
but
I
appreciate
the
ASA's,
contrary
opinion
and,
of
course
that's
what
the
Attorney
General
is
chiming
in
now.
L
As
far
as
the
the
liability
I
want
to
say
that
this
has
gone
through
five
municipalities
going
through
five
different
lawyers,
and
it's
changed
since
it
was
initially
been
proposed,
and
it's
changed
for
the
better
I
believe
part
of
that
is.
Is
that
we've
decreased
need,
be
I
got
a
big
chance
if
we
can
call
it
that
that
there
would
be
any
subsequent
liability
on
behalf
of
the
units
of
local
government
to
nearly
zero,
and
by
that
I
mean
one.
We
are
going
to
set
up
a
funding
in
advance
with
hotel
revenue.
L
Six
months
of
amer
of
payments
in
advance
has
to
be
righted
in
a
separate
trust
account
to
go
towards
their
pains.
Second,
we
set
up
an
intercept
where
any
unit
of
local
government
can
request
the
county
to
take
the
hotel
revenues
and
put
it
towards
the
I
am
arrived,
not
give
it
to
us
in
the
event
that
we're
behind
or
run
the
risk
of,
not
paying
that.
L
Third,
we
have
the
the
liability
itself
is
going
to
be
funded
from
hotel
tax
revenue
completely,
and
only
if
there's
zero
hotel
tax
revenue
can
any
liability
be
going
to
the
other
units
of
local
government.
And
at
that
point,
and
on
only
that
point,
your
liability
is
based
on
the
amount
of
hotel
tax
revenue.
That's
collected
within
the
unincorporated
areas
right,
so
the
that
amounts
to
two
point:
nine,
seven
percent.
Now
that
is
actually
reduced
under
the
adjusted
formula
provided
for
India,
because
Bourbonnais
doesn't
actually
have
any
hotels
in
there.
G
L
Yeah,
ultimately,
we're
asking
for
the
extension,
because
we
want
to
see
what
the
Attorney
General
would
say
and
then
at
that
point
we
expect
some
conversations
and
negotiations
with
the
agreement.
That's
absolutely
we
had
that
with
the
other
units
of
local
government.
We
expect
that
here,
but
we
understood
that
the
county
was
waiting
for
the
AG,
which
is
why
we
went
to
the
municipalities
first
because
we
wanted
this
takes
a
this
takes
a
while.
L
We've
started
this
process
back
in
I,
believe
March,
and
only
now
are
we
getting
to
the
County
so,
and
that
is
also
the
reason
why
we
sent
the
extension
over
so
soon
yeah.
It
could
wait
till
April,
but
it
takes
a
while
to
get
through
all
these
units.
The
local
government
to
approve
that
so
I
have
no
problem,
wait
until
January,
but
you
know
it
does
take
it.
Take
a
while
to
get
through
everybody.
So.
C
E
Byrne
yeah.
Thank
you.
Thanks
for
coming
today
get
back
on
mr.
C
ripe
for
okay,
now
being
a
non
profit,
you
would
utilize
a
403b.
Why
not
use
a
403b
for
that
I
work
for
non-profit
Hospital
and
we
have
a
403b.
It's
in
fact
a
non-profit
employee
can
use
on
rec.
Why
can
I
get?
Why
can
I
go
and
get
I
ever.
L
E
Just
saying
cuz
I
know
speaking
as
a
lot
official
who
I
know
can
tell
you
what
my
rep,
my
constituents
are.
Gonna
say:
yeah
talk
to
them,
they're
not
gonna,
be
a
favor,
something
like
this
and
it's
you
know
we're
looking
at
ways
that
we
look
at
start
from
Springfield
down
to
here.
The
main
problem
in
this
whole
state
is
the
pension
prop
that
no
one
wants
to
address,
but
we,
you
know
my
opinion
is
we
should
be
subtracting.
We
should
be
adding
on
right.
That's.
A
D
I
think
one
of
the
great
difficulties
is
information
here.
There
is
a
huge
difference
between
the
pension
problems.
The
five
state
pension
plans
have
and
I
MRF,
because
some
of
us
on
the
board
were
for
a
while
under
IMR
if
I
received
the
IRF
newsletter.
I
am
RF
is
a
a
pension
program
that
is
funded
at
90
percent
protein
100%,
so
that
now
the
there
are
some
potential
issues
in
terms
of
the
future
of
IM
RFI
I'm.
H
H
If
you
don't
have
the
law
on
your
side,
argue
the
facts:
if
you
don't
have
the
facts,
argue
the
law
and
if
you
don't
have
either
just
argue,
but
what
I
like
to
see
since
I
know
you
have
your
research,
your
data,
if
you
can
provide
us
what
they
call
a
synopsis
sheet,
basically
outline
or
outlaying
your
your
points
and
basically
your
research
I,
think
that
would
be
appreciative
to
the
board.
I
am
RF.
It's
a
secured
thing,
so
I
understand
why
you
just
want
to
get
it.
I
am
an
iron
Mario.
H
So,
therefore,
even
though
I
hear
your
side
state's
attorney
side,
both
of
you
all
agree,
let's
take
it
up
to
the
AG
side
and
therefore
to
make
any
rulings
or
any
decisions
without
that
information
would
probably
be
counterproductive
on
our
part.
But
I
would
appreciate
a
sheet
outlying.
You
just
out
just
giving
us
brief
outlay
of
your
support.
H
A
Anyone
else
to
your
point,
though:
I've
asked
the
county
chamber
and
the
CBB
to
spearhead
the
Bicentennial
here
so
when
we
have
meeting
tomorrow
to
discuss
that
so
I
don't
want
to
confuse
my
belief
in
the
good
work
and
my
distaste
for
the
taxpayers
funding
an
on
County
employees,
I
of
RF
contribution.
Okay,
I
have
to
draw
the
distinction
there,
because
it's
not
personal
right.
A
It's
it's
more
of
the
facts
of
the
matter
are:
do
we
want
to
be
that
governmental
unit
that
goes
back
to
the
taxpayers
once
again
to
fund
a
pension
system,
especially
for
a
non-government
employee?
Okay,
one,
that's
not
subject
to
for
you.
You
understand
my
points.
Okay,
we'll
talk
about
it
later,
I
guess,
moving
on!
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
Any
let's
see
here,
I
have
a
resolution
authorizing
and
a
motion
amendment
of
down
state
operating
assistance
grant
agreement;
that's
not
financial!
It's
the
last
page
in
your
packet,
just
a
formality
that
we
have
to
do
for
our
bus
system,
the
rural
bus
systems,
things
you
have
anything
to
add
to
that
job.
O
All
I
would
add
is
that
we
actually
had
a
resolution
approved
back
in
April,
but
because
it
wasn't
the
exact
language
that
they
supplied
us
with.
Our
agreement,
I
had
to
bring
it
back
because
they're
very
strict
on
the
resolution
that
we
approved
for
the
agreement
to
be
exactly
what
they
gave
us
yeah
the
resolution
that
was
approved.
It
was
the
same
as
the
EFT,
a
grant
that
we
received,
but
for
whichever
reason,
the
federal
funds
and
the
state
funds
have
different
language
in
them.
O
A
A
O
C
O
O
G
I
was
hoping
in
our
packet,
we
would
have
an
opening
for
the
st.
in
fire,
protect
Protection
District.
They
had
a
trustee
resigned
tom
case
and
they
wanted
an
appointment
of
Ralph,
Mercer
and
I.
Think
all
the
proper
paperwork
is
coming
to
your
office
just
to
make
you
aware
and
credit
that
the
the
resignation
was
immediately
of
mr.
case,
and
they
would
ask
for
your
blessing
for
an
appointment
of
mr.
Mercer
I.
A
Think
I've
got
to
announce
it.
What
I
can
do
is
announce
it
at
the
full
board
and
then
we
can
move.
No
point
wait
a
minute
executive.
Okay,
then,
would
have
to
be
approved
at
full
board.
That
doesn't
mean
you
can't
go
to
the
meetings,
but
he
probably
couldn't
vote
right.
Okay,
thank
this
accents,
no
problem.
