Governor's
budget
apparently
is
going
to
propose
a
10
decrease
in
the
local
government
distributive
fund
now,
supposedly
that
a
change
in
the
provisions
and
corporate
income
tax
will
increase
revenue
make
up
for
this
loss,
but
we're
going
to
have
to
see
what
happens
here.
There's
a
lot
of
moving
parts.
I
guess.
E
E
E
The
recommendation
from
ucci
is
to
wait
for
action
by
possibly
by
the
governor,
because
he
does
have
the
ability
to
change
the
date
set
by
state
law
by
declaring
an
emergency,
but
clearly
this
is
going
to
be
a
complicated
process.
This
time,
because
of
the
delay
from
the
census
bureau
on
population
data.
E
E
A
Thanks
steve
questioned
july
1st,
because
I'd
seen
legislation
for
the
first
board
meeting
in
july,
were
they
firm
on
that
july
1st
because
there
was
a
new
law
passed
four
years
ago,
that
said
by
the
by
the
first
full
board
meeting
in
july,
so
I
and
mr
rose
looking
into
that
for
us.
I
just
wanted
to
see
what
they
said.
E
E
A
F
A
Let's
see
here
and
by
the
way,
the
the
ten
percent
I
just
want
to
elaborate,
mr
hunter,
the
ten
percent
on
the
the
those
are
the
shared
income
tax
funds.
Those
are
the
tax
funds
beyond
what
is
generated
here.
It's
the
stuff,
that's
generated,
statewide,
that's
split
up!
That's
the
ten
percent
that
he's
talking
about
it's
not
what
we
normally
would
get
with
those
from
within
our
area.
It's
the
ones
that
are
all
shared
substantial,
it's
a
lot
of
money.
So
we
should
be
concerned
about
that.
Mr
hunter.
G
G
You
know
from
talking
to
people
in
the
law
enforcement
community
they're
not
adverse
to
police
reform.
However
36
53
supposedly
has
I
talked
to
sheriff
about
this
when
I,
when
I
found
out
about
it,
there's
11
million
dollars
in
house
bill
3653
for
body
cams,
that's
a
pittance
in
terms
of
what
the
needs
are
for
law
enforcement
for
body
cams.
G
You
know
the
problem
is
not
buying
the
the
hardware,
but
the
storage
is
is
a
real
issue
from
discussing
this
matter
with
law
enforcement
personnel
and
our
own
sheriff,
the
illinois,
sheriff's
association
has
not
been
thumbs
down
on
on
reform,
but
some
of
the
things
in
there
we're
gonna
have
to
deal
with
in
terms
of
cash
bails
and
stuff.
I
mean
how
do
we
make
up
the
the
revenue
that
we're
going
to
lose
and
and
that's
going
to
be
right
at
your
doorstep?
A
Yeah
to
that
point
I
was
going
to
talk
about
it
later,
might
as
well
do
it
now.
It's
legislative
I've
spoken
with
our
our
lobbyist
and
I've
also
had
brief
conversations
because
they're
quite
busy
with
our
legislators,
I'm
told
by
most
that
we
should
be
voting
on
a
legislative
agenda
at
the
may
board
meeting.
That's
that's
the
or
excuse
me.
The
the
full
board
should
vote
on
what
has
happened
at
our
april
executive
committee
meeting.
So
this
group
will
debate
go
through
legislative
agendas.
That's
the
meeting.
A
We
shouldn't
obviously
focus
on
a
lot
of
things
that
aren't
going
to
make
it
out
of
committee
at
that
point,
we'll
know
which
ones
have
legs
we'll
get
our
legislators
here.
That
can
come
because
they're
not
in
session
that
day
and
then
the
full
board
can
vote
on
whatever's
passed
out
of
this
body.
The
weeks
later,
they're
in
session.
A
Most
of
the
the
committee
calls
are
later
in
that
week
after
our
full
board
meeting
in
may,
so
the
timeline
works
out
well
that
way,
and
it
provides
us
a
little
time
to
kind
of
do
a
little
more
research
on
our
side
on
what
parts.
Let's
say
the
house
bill
the
crime
bill
as
I'll
call
it.
Would
we
like
to
see
change?
A
A
So
all
this
is
wrapped
up
into
one
great
big
present
we
get
to
unwrap
when,
unfortunately,
it
happens,
so
I
will
get
into
the
policing
disaster
that
this
is
going
to
cause
people
not
being
able
to
be
evicted
from
their
property
like
if
you
have
somebody
stalking
orders,
unless
there's
some
immediate
danger
to
somebody,
they
just
write
them
tickets
that
they
don't
have
to
pay.
Anyway,
you
have
a
business
you've
banned
people,
you
have
a
property,
you've
banned
people,
you
can't
all
they
get
is
a
ticket.
A
A
H
Can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
sir?
All
right
I'll,
keep
it
quick.
We
we've
had
a
very
busy
month,
but
since
the
majority
of
the
projects
that
we
had
were
actually
planned,
we
are
nevertheless
actually
on
budget
to
be
very
specific.
The
last
two
weekends
have
been
extremely
busy
for
our
department
during
the
the
four
day
weekend
that
we
had
for
president.
Today,
we
were
busy
during
that
time
upgrading
the
county's
email
server,
which
is
an
extensive
process.
It
took
all
four
days
of
the
weekend.
H
H
A
A
A
A
F
D
B
D
C
A
I
Thank
you
good
morning.
You
know
I
get
used
to
just
pretty
much
saying
ditto
all
the
time,
so
I
guess,
but
I
do
have
some
information
I
would
like
to
to
report.
I
I
have
a
few
pages
to
hear
notes.
I'm
going
to
try
to
just
hit
the
cliff
notes,
version
of
those
and
then
I'll
answer,
any
questions
that
anyone
has
currently
in
kankakee
county.
Then
our
cases
as
of
yesterday
stand
at
12,
439
confirmed
covet
19
cases.
I
I
So,
in
the
past
nine
weeks,
nine
weeks
since
we
started
vaccinating
within
the
county,
there
have
been
fifteen
thousand
one
hundred
and
fifty
five
vaccinations,
given
that's
an
average
of
sixteen
hundred
a
week.
For
the
past
nine
weeks,
we
stand
at
four
thousand
five
hundred
and
fifty
three
fully
vaccinated.
I
I
So
the
you
know
mitigation
factors
that
everyone
continues
to
fall
and
collaboration
with
the
vaccinations
that
people
are
slowly
being
able
to
get
right.
Now
the
health
department
continues
to
add
people
to
the
sign
up
list,
either
through
facebook,
the
internet
or
a
phone
number
that
we
have
and
again
that
phone
number
is
815-802-9449
for
individuals
who
don't
have
internet
access
or
don't
have
the
ability
to
sign
up
on
facebook.
I
If
you
remember,
we
were
getting
ready
to
participate
in
the
naacp's
town
hall
that
was
on
february
16th
last
week,
in
conjunction
with
they
sponsored
it
and
with
amita
riverside
in
the
health
department.
We
provided
a
lot
of
good
information
for
individuals
why
it's
important
to
get
the
vaccine?
How
to
protect
themselves
and
their
family?
I
The
65
and
older
group,
anyone
65
and
older,
is
eligible
starting
on
thursday
he's
going
to
add
everyone,
who's
16
to
64.
Who
then
has
co-morbidities
that
would
be
cancer,
kidney
disease,
copd,
diabetes,
heart
conditions,
organ
transplants,
obesity,
pregnancy,
pulmonary
disease
and
sickle
cell
disease.
I
We
have
no
idea
how
many
this
one
b
plus
group
is
going
to
add
it's
basically
almost
adding
opening
up
the
general
population
minus
the
young
kids.
So
that's
where
we're
at
we're
going
to
be
vaccinating
as
best
we
can,
but
just
remember,
supplies
are
limited.
In
the
last
three
weeks
the
health
department
has
received.
I
I
I
In
regards
to
first
doses,
he's
promised
that
come
march,
that's
supposed
to
improve
slowly
and
surely
so
that
hopefully
by
mid-summer,
unfortunately,
is
the
best
answer
I
can
give
at
this
point
until
I
know
for
sure
it's
going
to
take
that,
while
so
people
who
are
on
that
list,
if
you
just
signed
up
today,
for
example
and
you're
16
000
won
you're
at
the
bottom
of
the
list.
I'm
sorry
because
there's
people
ahead
of
you
that
we're
trying
to
get
to
that
feel
that
their
shots
are
just
as
important
as
your
shot.
A
For
clarification,
when
you
say
sorry,
I
turned
my
mic
off
sneezing
for
clarification.
When
you
say
roughly
500
doses,
I
heard
300,
I
heard
800
600.
Let's
just
say
it's
five
as
an
average.
Is
that
single
doses
or
is
it
the
double
doses
that
takes
to
do
one
person?
Is
it
like?
Do
you
have
enough
for
500
people,
or
do
you
have
enough
for
250
people.
I
That's
a
good
question
so
when
I
say
so
and
again,
let
me
re
you
know.
Originally
we
were
told
we
were
gonna,
300
doses.
Then
they
sent
us
five.
They
told
us
this
week.
We
would
get
300
doses
they're,
sending
us
seven,
so
they're
giving
us
a
little
bit
more
than
they
originally
said.
But
700
doses
would
be
enough
vaccine
for
700,
first
shot.
Okay,
that's
the
first
shot
and
then
those
700
are
guaranteed
to
come
in
four
weeks
again
on
the
back
side,
so
that
we
can
do
the
second
vaccination
for
those
individuals.
I
Okay,
we
don't
have
to
worry
about
that
number
then
falls
off
and
in
four
weeks
we'll
get
a
new
allotment
of
say,
1600,
but
that
700
is
going
to
be
included
already
in
addition
to
that,
so
that,
as
I
said,
second
shots
automatically
will
come.
We
don't
have
to
worry
about
that.
We
don't
have
to
worry
about
holding
any
back
or
anything
like
that.
What
we
get
as
a
first
dose.
We
mark
it
as
a
first
dose
and
if
it's
a
second
dose,
it's
marked
as
a
second
dose
and
we're
having
two
clinics.
A
Another
reason
I
asked-
and
there
was
I
want
to
follow
up
please
and
then
I'll
go
who's
that
that's
next,
mr
steroid,
mr
sarah
you're.
Next
I
have
the
the
question
I
have
is
I've
gotten
calls
from
a
lot
of
employers,
people
at
long-term
care
facilities
through
no
fault
of
yours,
because
it's
a
dose
situation.
It's
not
a
capacity
situation
to
be
able
to
hand
them
out
we're
not
getting
enough
to
get
to
everybody.
A
I
That
is
correct
and-
and
let
me
elaborate
that
there's
a
collaboration
in
a
couple
of
manners
going
on
here.
There's
there's
two
vaccine
distribution
points
going
on
here.
There's
the
local
response,
which
is
the
health
department,
that's
collaborating
with,
for
example,
jewel
and
meyer,
then
there's
the
federal
program
that
the
state
has
thrown
in
there
cdc
sends
vaccine
to
walgreens
and
cvs,
for
example
locally
in
kankakee
county,
and
they
are
tasked
with
giving
the
vaccinations
to
the
long-term
care
facilities,
residents
and
staff
behind
the
scenes
under
the
water.
I
However,
you
want
to
to
put
that
so
that's
taking
place
already.
Those
facilities
are
being
slowly
and
methodically
vaccinated
staff
and
residents
already.
So,
if
we're
getting
complaints
about
those
facilities,
that's
outside
of
our
control
but
they're
in
the
works
they're
being
taken
care
of
we're,
also
working
then
with
locally
the
jewel
to
facilitate,
and
they
get
some
of
our
vaccine
then
to
go
out
and
do
the
csls,
the
van
drunen's,
the
kankakee
nurseries
and
those
types
of
places
again
slowly
and
methodically
behind
the
scenes.
I
So
then,
the
vaccine
that
the
health
department
gets
the
700
or
hopefully
4
000
in
a
month,
will
be
used
to
try
to
get
to
the
65
plus
these
other
individuals
that
have
been
on
here,
the
essential
workers
and,
obviously
the
underserved
in
our
community,
the
hard
to
reach
and
the
access
to
care
individuals
in
in
those
locations.
Thank
you.
So
it's
a
multi-pronged
attack.
That's
taking
place
here
a
lot
of
moving
parts.
A
I
Then
one
other
point
I
I
so
recently
within
our
survey
kayla
one
of
our
our
health
educators
reformatted
that
survey
list.
So
originally
it
was
sign
up.
You
know,
as
an
individual,
that
I'm
interested
in
getting
the
shot.
We
have
created
a
second
link
that
is
just
right
underneath
that
for
businesses
to
sign
up,
you
know,
I'm
I'm
joe
manager
and
I'm
this
business,
and
so
you
know
they.
Let
us
know
how
many
individuals
that
they
have
working
for
them,
and
so
we
have
a
spreadsheet
now
for
businesses
to
try
to.
I
You
know
add
that
to
our
excel
spreadsheets
so
that
we
can
eventually,
you
know,
work
down
each
of
these
lists
to
accommodate
those,
sometimes
they're,
very
small
businesses,
and
what
we'll
do
is.
We
will
push
them
out
to
those
pharmacies
to
have
them
vaccinate,
but
a
csl,
for
example,
has
you
know
600
individuals
that
might
be
interested
in
receiving
that
shot?
That's
going
to
be
too
much,
that'll
overwhelm
a
jewel
or
an
osco,
or
somebody
like
that.
So
then
that's
where
we're
working
with
team.
I
C
I
I
C
C
I
D
Okay
and
then
how
about
one
b,
you're
just
the
same
thing
in
that
situation
there
once
you
go
to
employer
when
you
go
to
an
employer,
you
might
have
a
30
year
old
guy
who
drives
the
forklift
around
and
you
might
have
an
85
year
old
person,
that's
living
at
home.
That
hasn't
got
a
vaccine.
Yet
I
don't
understand
how
the
governor
expects
that
to
work
out
very
well.
D
I
D
I
Well,
I
believe
that
we're
trying
to
reach
out
to
all
of
them.
Yes,
so
many
have
already
gotten
on
board
and
are
working
in
some
form
or
fashion,
either
with
the
local
health
department
or
through
this
federal
program.
We
are
aware
of
some
other
smaller
ones
that
have
applied
to
become
vaccine
providers
and
until
they're
officially
approved
they're,
not
on
the
radar
yet,
and
so
we
can't
really
do
anything
other
than
wait
for
them
to
join
and
then
we'll
add
them
to
the
fray.
I
Now,
if
they
become
part
of
the
federal
program,
again,
that's
vaccine,
they
get
through
that
side
of
the
fence.
If
they're
working
locally
with
us,
then
they'll
just
be
added
to
the
list
of
of
the
health
department,
riverside
ameda,
jewel
and
meyer,
that
we
have
to
share
500
doses
with,
for
example,
this
week
to
schedule
any
first.
First
appointments.
I
If
they're
part
of
our
local
program-
yes,
eventually,
when
there's
enough
vaccine,
that's
rolling
out
there,
the
idea
is:
the
state
will
no
longer
require
the
health
department
to
be
the
point
of
distribution
for
vaccine
ordering.
When
there's
enough
in
the
store
so
to
speak,
everyone
will
be
able
to
order
their
own
and
then
be
able
to
do
it.
That's
the
plan.
D
I
Okay,
let
us
know
who
that
is,
and
we
can
reach
out
to
them.
Okay,
if
the
you
know
a
a
doctor
in
a
small
town
can
sign
up
to
be
a
vaccinator,
but
if,
if
we
don't
know
they're
out
there
and
they
got
that
approval,
it's
like
getting
a
driver's
license.
We
don't
know
what
you
got,
but
if
you
want
to
help,
then
then
then
come,
let
us
know,
and
then
we
can
try
to
add
you
to
the
list.
D
I
have
people
in
my
district
coming
up
to
me
and
going
I'm
65.
I've
been
on
the
list
for
six
weeks
and
I
haven't
heard
anything
from
anybody
and
yet
you're
giving
out
the
doses
to
1b
and
to
employers
and
all
the
other
stuff
you're
making
lists
it
doesn't
make
any
sense
until
you
finish
one
section
and
move
on
to
the
next.
D
I
I
They
are
all
give
good
reasons
why
they
should
get
that
shot
first
above
anybody
else,
and
so
we're
we're
trying
to
accommodate
that
as
best
and
easily
as
we
can
but
realize
that
if
you
got
on
that
list
six
weeks
ago
and
you're
still
at
10
000
and
we're
only
getting
500
doses
a
week
to
be
able
to
do
those
shots,
the
math
is
not
good.
We
estimate
at
500
doses
a
week,
we'll
have
everyone's
first
shot
done
in
three
and
a
half
years.
I
Now
we
expect
to
get
more
than
that
soon.
However,
at
the
current
pace,
that's
what
we're
looking
at.
So
I
understand
the
frustration
of
individuals
who
are
expressing.
Why
haven't
you
called
me?
Why
haven't
you
called
me?
I
see
other
places
getting
it
well,
when
you
go
to
the
other
side
of
the
fence,
they're
they're,
all
struggling
too.
We
are
not
the
only
county,
that's
not
getting
any
vaccine.
Our
numbers
are
very
comparative
to
the
state
and
within
our
region
as
to
who's
been
vaccinated.
How
many
have
been
vaccinated
in
the
nine
weeks?
I
D
I
The
health
department
is
trying
to
prioritize
the
most
vulnerable
and
then
move
down
the
list
that
way.
So,
even
though
we
have
everyone
on
the
list,
so
to
speak,
we
are
trying
to
prioritize
as
best
we
can.
We
were
asked
to
do
the
1a
and
the
1b.
First,
that's
what
we're
still
working
on
those
are
your
healthcare
workers,
those
long-term
care
people
and
then
everyone
else,
who's
eligible.
That
doesn't
necessarily
mean
that
all
of
a
sudden,
the
new
people
get
to
cut
to
the
front
of
the
line.
I
Many
health
departments,
including
ours,
is
possibly
going
to
still
prioritize
this.
It's
easy
to
say
the
list
is
everybody,
but
at
500
doses
a
week,
there's
only
500
people
who
are
going
to
be
getting
those
vaccinations
and
we
are
prior
prioritizing
those
as
best
we
can
to
be
fair
and
equitable
to
everybody.
Who's
already
been
patiently
waiting.
K
As
you
know,
I
represent
the
eastern
end
of
the
county
and
I
get
quite
a
few
calls
of
individuals
saying
they
can't
make
the
schedule
they
can't
get
on
the
list.
But
my
question
is,
since
we
have
a
riverside
medical
group
right
there
in
pembroke,
how
come
that
can't
be
considered
to
be
a
site
to
give
the
shots.
I
I
And
so
what
we're
discussing
is
the
ability
in
the
future
when
vaccine
becomes
available
and
it
becomes
efficient
to
move
that's
riverside's
clinic.
We
don't
want
to
go
out
there
necessarily
and
step
on
their
toes
by
hosting
a
clinic
if
they're
getting
ready
to
do.
One
too
that's
a
duplication
of
efforts
and
a
waste
of
time
for
both
of
us,
so
we're
working
together
to
figure
out
how
best
we
can
do
that.
But
remember.
I
just
said
that
those
500
doses
we
get
are
split
between
the
health
department
and
riverside
also.
G
You
have
been
bombarded
with
questions
by
the
chairman,
featherling
siroi,
mr
paint,
and
now
me
you
have
some
cliff
notes.
There
have
you
ever
thought
about
on
a
weekly
basis,
informing
us
via
email
as
to
what's
going
on,
and
you
wouldn't
be
bombarded
with
this
information
for
questions.
Let
me
say
further:
we
at
the
naacp
reached
out
to
you
we
reached
out
to
you.
G
G
I
G
G
I
know
people
who
have
died
from
covet
and
you
have
to
understand
all
the
questions
been
posed
here,
because
people
are
calling
us.
We
see
deficiencies
in
the
process,
we're
not
laying
all
this
stuff
at
your
doorstep,
but
we
as
legislators
and
leaders
in
the
government
are
called
regarding
issues
about
their
status
on
the
list.
How
can
I
get
it
done,
etc?
You
have
to
understand
that
empathize
with
us,
I'm
going
to
ask
you
this.
G
G
I
I
I
82
of
the
vaccinations
that
have
been
given
to
date
represent
white
6.32
percent,
black
or
african
american
two
and
a
half
percent
is
hispanic
and
there's
almost
800
people
who
didn't
put
anything
down.
So
that's
five
percent
that
might
be
a
conglomeration
of
a
number
of
those
races
or
ethnicities
that
doesn't
make
us
great
or
bad.
I
G
G
Are
people
look
like
carico?
So
what
what
I'm
saying
to
you?
I,
I
don't
feel
comfortable
about
that
those
numbers,
but
I
understand
that
you're
going
to
say
supply
all
I'm
saying
to
you
as
a
legislator.
If
I
have
information,
I
can
vote
accordingly.
Based
on
the
information
I
receive.
All
I'm
saying
to
you.
G
G
G
I
At
the
end
of
the
day,
the
answer
to
that
would
be.
No.
We've
made
it
quite
clear
since
a
year
ago
that
a
lot
of
this
information
is
on
the
state's
website
and
and
in
a
manner
it's
a
duplication
of
efforts.
For
any
of
I
apologize
that
that's
not.
I
can
take
time
out
of
my
day
to
make
another
report
to
say
the
same
thing.
That's
already
being
said
somewhere.
I
You
know
what
type
of
information
mr
hunter,
would
you
like
me
to
put
in
this
report,
because
every
time
we
do
something
put
it
on
facebook,
I'm
just
asking
you're
asking
for
another
report.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
the
more
information
we
put
out
the
more
questions
we
get.
So
I
want
to
make
sure
then,
if
this
will
suffice
for
everybody,
mr
wheeler
or,
if,
if
this
is
coming
from
the
full
board,
I'll
I'll
make
another
report.
No
now
what
I'm
saying.
G
G
You
know
to
your
county
board
members,
so
we
can
articulate
when
we
get
a
phone
call
from
champaign,
springfield
or
whatever
about
a
relative
here
or
mr
so-and-so
who
lives
in
skyline
or
mr
so-and-so
who
lives
in
riverview
will
have
a
base
of
information
that
we
can
share
with
them.
That's
all
we're
asking
for
when
you
know
when
you,
when
you
have
certain
information,
you
do
better
when
you
know
better,
you
do
better.
All
we're
asking
for
is
information
that
we
can
promulgate
and
disseminate
to
our
citizens.
That's
all
I'm
done
with
it.
L
Mr
chairman,
thank
you,
miss
sherman,
mr
beaver.
First
of
all,
I'd
like
to
really
thank
you
for
the
hard
work
you've
been
doing
with
the
health
department
and
I'm
gonna
move
a
little
bit
away
from
the
vaccinations.
I
just
have
a
different
kind
of
a
question
here.
That
would
be
a
little
easier
on
you.
L
One
of
them
is
within
the
service
provided
by
the
health
department.
Do
we
have
any
health
and
wellness
programs
such
as
you
know,
social,
media
or
webinars
or
flyers
that
maybe
could
include
some
kind
of
a
nutrition
exercise?
The
stress
management
or
certain
things
like
that
that
it's
really
important
when
it
comes
to
the
enhancement
of
health
prevention,
improving
immunity
and
so
on
so
forth.
I
So,
yes,
the
health
department
has
a
health
educator
department.
We
had
three
individuals
that
were
working
with
in
that
two
of
them
recently
resigned.
We
have
posted
for
that
position.
We
have
somebody
starting
in
march,
so
that'll
be
the
second
one.
The
individual
that
is
currently
working
within
that
program
is
our
main
public
health
emergency
preparedness
coordinator.
Also,
so
right
now
is
helping
us
all
hands
on
deck,
facilitate
the
contact
tracing
and
the
vaccination
rollout
that
we
are
trying
to
do
to
get
everyone
vaccinated
within
the
county
as
quickly
as
possible
as
supplies
allow.
I
That
is
something
within
our
website.
We
have
information,
whether
it's
webinars
or
anything.
Ultimately,
when
we
have
a
full
staff-
and
we
have
more
time
to
be
able
to
devote
to
that-
because
many
of
our
programs
have
kind
of
been
pushed
aside
the
past
year
in
regards
to
the
work
that's
been
going
on
with
kovid.
I
However,
we
know
that
we
won't
always
have
covid,
I
pray
we
don't
always
have
covid
and
that
we
can
begin
to
get
back
to
some
of
those
services
and
now
that
everyone
has
their
eyes
on
the
health
department,
we
can
provide
that
education
better
and
and
improve
on
things.
We've
made
a
number
of
changes
to
our
facebook
and
website
as
a
result
of
kovit
and
providing
information
out
there
and
can
continue
to
add
to
that
per
request
as
today
and
and
move
forward
with
that.
I
L
Well,
thank
you.
I
understand
about
the
vaccinations
and-
and
I
understand
that
you
you've
been
working
hard
on
that
in
my
my
question
was
not
in
relation
to
the
vaccine.
It
was
not
in
relation
to
cove
but
his
relation
into
total
health.
You
know
because
we
have
other
things
besides
covers
going
around.
J
F
I
Right,
so
thank
you.
We
we
do
have
that
we
are
trying
the
two
people
who
recently
left
us
were
very
instrumental
in
getting
a
lot
of
that
information
out
there.
So
the
the
existing
individual
at
this
point
is
a
little
involved
somewhere
else,
but
we're
hoping
that
one
of
these,
the
new
individual
who
will
be
starting
in
march,
will
will
try
to
throw
some
of
that
work
her
way
and
and
see.
If
we
can
slowly
improve
that.
Thank
you
so
much
any.
A
I
I
A
lot
of
people
are
changing
their
mind
and,
and
so
again
some
of
those
one
a
and
one
b's
that
were
you
know:
we've
already
been
through
a
number
of
hospital
staff,
educated
staff,
educators,
staff
from
the
schools
they're
calling
us
up
now
and
you
know
because
they
missed
their
first
opportunity
when
the
vaccine
was
available
and
now
they
they
want
the
vaccine.
Yes,.
A
B
D
A
N
I
would
just
like
to
add
to
the
whole
conversation
about
shots
that
our
local
clinic
over
in
bourbon,
a
on
february
14th,
had
about
390
shots
available
for
65
or
older
veterans,
and
this
last
weekend
on
sunday
they
had
another
two
or
three
hundred,
I'm
not
sure
what
the
quantity
was
for
veterans.
So
a
lot
of
the
veterans
in
the
area
have
had
the
opportunity
to
get
the
covet
shots
through
the
va.
N
N
M
M
G
Just
wanted
kudos
to
you
to
piggyback
on
that
comprehensive
specificity.
I
don't
need
to
bug
you
about
stuff,
because
it's
here
reduced
to
writing.
Additionally,
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
again
for
participating
in
the
kanke
county
citizen,
rapid
response
team
training.
That's
a
group
of
individuals
who
work
with
law
enforcement
throughout
the
county,
from
pembroke
to
the
west
coast
of
the
county,
reddick
and
north
to
grant
park
to
the
southern
regions
of
the
county.
G
You
know
we
interface
with
law
enforcement
and
trying
to
promulgate
accurate
information
which
may
be
contrary
in
the
communities
and
on
social
media.
Karen
was
one
of
whether
10
or
20.
No,
it's
20.
I
think
we
had
training
thursday
night
and
saturday
morning
at
kcc,
and
I
just
want
to
thank
you
for
participating
and
and
being
a
volunteer
for
that
particular
program.
O
Good
morning
I
sent
you
in
in
the
packet
two
of
three
financial
reports
or
blue
cross
blue
shield
financial
and
utilization
reports
that
I
received
late
last
week.
These
are
the
first
actual
utilization
or
reporting
of
this
kind.
We've
gotten
from
blue
cross
blue
shield,
as
you
may
remember,
that
we
switched
from
united
health
care
to
blue
cross
blue
shield
january
1st
of
2020.
O
We
didn't
get
previous
reporting
because
it
really
took
a
little
bit
of
time
to
build
any
sort
of
a
trend
or
be
able
to
track
anything
in
any
meaningful
way.
So
the
two
reports
that
we
are
getting
are
a
monthly
financial
report,
they're
different
they're
a
little
bit
different.
They
look
at
things
a
little
differently,
so
we'll
kind
of
talk
through
I
pulled
out
for
the
presentation
today
some
key
indicators
throughout
the
report,
so
each
report
runs
about
30
pages.
I
got
three
of
them.
O
The
monthly
financial
report
looks
at
a
plan
year
so
january,
1st
through
december
30th,
and
we'll
talk
through
those
numbers.
First,
both
reports
are
now
going
to
be
available
to
me
on
a
monthly
basis
on
a
one
month
leg.
So,
while
start
to
get
them
monthly,
it'll
it'll
become
more
helpful
over
time.
The
financial
report
that
we're
going
to
look
at
is
the
report.
As
of
january
31st,
I
got
the
december
31st
and
the
january
31st
reports
I
liked
the
january
because
there's
a
prior
year,
so
you
can
compare
year
over
year.
O
O
There
were
888
in
december,
so
we
had
a
slight
increase,
not
huge,
but
a
slight
increase
during
open
enrollment.
So
a
few
employees
came
on
maybe
chose
it
from
perhaps
where,
from
outside
the
county,
getting
coverage
from
another
employer
like
a
spouse's
employer
that
switched
over
to
the
county,
so
we
had
a
little
bit
of
an
increase.
It's
not
due
to
new
employees.
We
didn't
have
that
many
new
employees,
so
it
would
have
been
somebody
who
did
had
coverage
elsewhere
that
switched
to
the
county's
coverage
for
2021.
O
I
would
say
that
overall
in
the
year
that
we've
had
blue
cross
blue
shield,
we've
had
terrific
feedback
in
terms
of
what's
covered
in
terms
of
the
network,
especially
the
pharmaceutical
benefits.
So
I
think
maybe
there
were
employees
that
had
historically
coverage
elsewhere
under
their
spouse's
plan
that
kind
of
gave
it
a
year.
After
a
year
we
saw
an
increase
in
our
employees.
A
So
I
just
want
to
mention
keep
in
mind
that
a
lot
of
people
were
waiting
last
year
because
of
kovid
to
go
this
year
on
some
things
so
that
we
I've
talked
to
a
few
health
people.
I
hold
insurance
people
out
there.
That
may
be
why
we've
seen
an
increase,
but
there
was
a
large
claimant
as
well.
I
know
you
know
people
like
that.
They
didn't
want
to
go
near
hospitals
last
year
if
they
could
avoid
it.
So.
O
If
you
look
down
below
in
the
smaller
grid,
you
can
see
the
344
000
is
the
medical
payment
and
then
right
below
that
the
pharmacy
paid
increased
in
january
of
2020
from
32
165
to
101
995
dollars
for
the
for
january
2021.
Again,
a
lot
of
that
related
to
that
high
cost.
Claimant
you'll
see
that
hcc
that
acronym
throughout
this
report,
that's
high
cost
claimant.
Those
are
claimants
that
have
over
50
000
in
a
claim.
O
So
we'll
talk
about
that
throughout
these
reports.
The
next
page
page
seven
shows
the
trend
in
terms
of
the
loss
ratio,
and
this
is
important
for
us.
You
in
la
the
last
several
years,
we've
talked
about
an
mlr
rebate
in
the
in
the
fall.
What's
happened
is
there's
a
target
that
for
large
employers
under
the
affordable
care
act,
85
percent,
it's
85
for
small
employers,
80
for
large
employers
of
the
cost
of
the
premium,
has
to
go
towards
care.
O
So
if
you
look
at
80
to
85
percent,
that's
really
close
to
where
an
insurance
company
wants
to
be
in
terms
of
the
premiums
they
receive,
what
what
gets
paid
out
in
claims-
and
we
were
at
that
level
through
september-
and
then
you
can
see-
what's
happened
here
october
november
december
january,
we
are
over
100
percent.
So
what
is
happening
is
blue
cross
blue
shield
is
paying
out
more
in
claims
than
they
are
receiving
in
premiums.
So,
while
four
months
is
five
months
is
starting
to
be
a
trend.
O
We're
going
to
want
to
watch
that
I
will
say
in
my
conversations
yesterday
with
blue
cross
blue
shield
they're,
not
raising
the
alarm
yet
at
this
point,
largely
because,
as
we
get
through
here
and
and
take
a
look
there
is
this
one
very
large
claimant.
The
number
of
large
claimants
high
cost
claimants
for
us
is
relatively
low
compared
to
the
benchmark
that
they
typically
see
so
they're,
hoping
that
this
is
an
anomaly
and
these
payments
kind
of
get
reduced
back
into
the
normal
range
down
around
90
percent
or
so.
O
So
if
you
look
down
at
the
bottom
under
key
findings
on
this
page,
seven,
the
medical
and
pharmacy
loss
ratio
was
21.2
percent
higher
than
the
average
of
the
most
recent
12
months.
So
it
is
the
it's
it's
trending
up
markedly.
The
next
page
page,
eight
is
key.
Really
it's
it's
a
lot
of
numbers,
but
the
really
the
key
thing
is:
if
you
look
at
the
top
medicare
primary
indicator.
O
No,
that
means
medicare
is
not
the
primary
med
insurance
provider
for
most
of
our
employees
correct
most
of
our
group
right.
So
no,
so
that's
the
bulk
of
our
members
in
network
versus
out
of
network,
so
in
network,
is
99.7
percent
of
claims,
99.7
percent.
So
what
that's
saying
is
the
network
at
blue
cross
blue
shield
is
so
good
people,
our
employees,
our
members
are
staying
within
the
network,
so
that's
good.
It's
more
cost
effective
for
our
employees
and
their
families.
It's
better
for
the
provider.
O
It
helps
keep
costs
down,
they've
got
contracts
with
those
providers,
etc.
That's
a
good
trend,
that's
what
we
want
to
see
now
the
next
two
pages
I'll
talk
together.
We
talked
about
this
high
cost
claimant.
This
is
because
remember,
this
report
is
a
plan
year.
The
plan
year
starts
january,
so
in
january
we
had
one
high
cost
claimant,
and
this
is
this:
is
the
information
there
and
that's
where
you
can
see
over,
on
the
right
hand,
side
151,
237
dollars
paid
in
plan
year
to
date,
which
is
one
month
plan
year
to
date.
O
O
So
you
can
see
there
were
eight
different
high
cost
claimants
and
if
you
look
over
on
the
right
hand,
side
paid,
you
can
see
the
paid
amount
for
each
one
of
these
claimants
and
then
currently
enrolled
right
there.
You
can
see
one.
The
one
subscriber
of
these
high
cost
claimants
two-thirds
of
the
way
down
currently
enrolled.
O
No
so
that
claimant
actually
is
no
longer
working
at
the
county.
So
what
that
does
blue
cross?
Blue
shield
also
looks
at
that
to
understand
whether
these
chronic
issues
are
going
to
continue.
Is
this
a
long
term
is
a
short-term
trend
so
as
they're
looking
at
our
group
they're
looking
at
trends
and
what
they
can
anticipate,
so
they
actually
made
note
of
that
in
our
conference
call
yesterday.
So
there
were
nine
hawk
high
cost
claimants.
O
Moving
on
to
the
next
page,
which
is
page
17
of
the
report,
is
just
it's
a
pharmacy
look
and
again
it's
a
lot
of
numbers,
a
lot
of
detail,
the
key
number
being.
If
you
look
down
the
second
column
from
the
left,
you
have
prescriptions
and
then
the
percent
of
total
prescriptions
down
towards
the
bottom
of
the
page.
It
compares
generic
with
brand
names,
so
you
can
see
that
our
our
member
group
80
of
their
prescriptions.
They
are
using
generics
again
very
good
for
the
members
very
good
for
the
providers.
O
O
O
A
What
what
does
the
the
committee
feel
maybe
like
a
quarterly
report
for
the
month
after
we
get
the
quarter,
because
it's
a
one-month
drag
so
the
first?
If
there's
a
way,
I
see
that
as
a
value
to
see
kind
of
where
we're
running,
because
as
we
look
at
budget
time,
we
could
almost
predict
that
well
based
on
the
fact
that
we're
running
hot,
we
should
see
an
increase
in
our
health
insurance.
A
O
The
next
report
is
a
utilization
report.
So
remember
the
fir.
The
financial
report
was
a
plan
year.
This
is
a
rolling
12
months,
so
every
month
now
that
we've
got
12
months
in
the
a
prior
month
will
drop
off
and
one
new
one
will
get
added
in.
So
it's
a
little
bit
of
different
look
so
the
financial
report.
When
we
looked
at
the
plan
year,
that
was
one
month.
This
gives
us
a
full
12
months.
So
it's
a
different
different
look.
O
O
So
it's
really
those
12
months,
it's
not
back
to
january
or
november.
First
flipping
the
page
on
page
six.
This
again
goes
to
the
demographics
and,
if
you
look
it,
does
it
talks
about
benchmarks
throughout
this
report.
What
I
did
like
is
looking
at
their
benchmarks.
That's
what
blue
cross
blue
shield
assumes,
and
we
want
to
keep
that
in
mind,
because
that
is
what
helps
them
determine
their
premium
amounts.
O
O
For
our
group
the
benchmark
is
46.7,
so
our
members
are
being
admitted
less
12
13
less
than
what
the
typical
benchmark
is,
and
in
addition,
the
average
length
of
stay
is
3.2
days
as
opposed
to
a
benchmark
of
five,
so
36
percent
less
than
what
the
benchmark
typically
is.
So
our
employees
are
admitted
less
and
stay
for
a
shorter
period
of
time
for
inpatient
services.
On
the
flip
side,
if
you
look
at
outpatient
facilities,
the
visits
per
1000
for
our
members
are
2741
compared
to
1367,
so
over
a
hundred
percent
increase
over
the
benchmark.
O
I
there's
not
a
perfect
answer:
outpatient
treatment
for
anything
is
less
expensive
than
inpatient.
So
maybe
that's
a
good
thing.
Maybe
it's
a
good
thing
that
our
members
are
seeking
treatment
sooner
until
it
gets
to
a
catastrophic
level.
So
it
could
be
actually
a
good
thing
rather
than
a
bad
thing
that
we're
so
high
and
then
prescriptions
if
you
go
down
to
almost
to
the
bottom
of
the
page.
O
O
Being
next
page
is
page
14.,
and
this
is
a
quick
graphic
on
these
high
cost
claimants.
So,
during
the
period
that
of
here
that
we're
talking
about
in
this
report,
we
had
eight
high
cost
claimants.
That
is
point
nine
percent
of
our
membership.
The
benchmark
for
blue
cross
blue
shield
is
one
and
a
half
percent.
So
while
we
look
at
these
high
cost
claimants
and
think
it's,
it
seems
like
a
lot
and
it
does.
It
is
a
lot.
It's
a
lot
of
money.
O
It's
a
lot
of
it's
a
lot
of
families
impacted
with
a
serious
illness.
It
is
less
than
what
blue
cross
blue
shield
typically
sees.
So
we
have
a
relatively
healthy
member
group,
which
is
good
news
and
of
the
total
amount
paid
by
blue
cross
blue
shield.
These
high
cost
claimants
are
23
percent
of
what
they
paid
out.
These
eight
people,
23
of
what
blue
cross
blue
shield
paid
last
year,
went
for
these
eight
people.
O
Typically
that's
42
percent,
and
there
were,
during
this
period,
zero
repeat:
high
cost
claimant.
So
sometimes
what
you
see
happen
and-
and
they
said
it
is
pretty
typical
to
see
a
high
cost
claimant
now
we
only
have
one
year
and
that
may
be
why
but
you'll
see
a
high
cost,
claimant
come
back
again
and
again
and
again,
and
maybe
have
three
or
four
serious
high
cost
claims
that
has
not
happened.
We're
at
zero
repeats
again.
O
O
O
What
what
we
want
to
see
blue
cross
blue
shield
then
looks
at
that
and
says:
is
that
something
that
an
emergency
room
visit
is
required
or
would
it
be
better
served
by
going
directly
maybe
to
an
lower
cost
option,
perhaps
your
doctor's
office
or
etc?
But
I
will
tell
you
this:
if
we
look
at
so
23
percent,
their
indication
is
23
of
our
er
visit
were
potentially
non-emergent
potentially
so.
O
O
Again,
I'm
not
going
to
make
the
determination
whether
or
not
maybe
that
person
should
have
waited
till
the
next
morning
to
go
to
the
doctor's
office
right,
especially
at
a
time
when
we
look
at
covid
and
the
difficulty
trying
to
get
into
a
doctor's
office.
So,
but
still
in
terms
of
these
er
visits
that
they
consider
non-potentially
non-emergent
my
conversation
with
blue
cross.
This
is
extremely
low,
extremely
low.
O
They
said
that
it's
not
unusual
for
them
to
see
the
multiple,
the
claimants,
the
multiple
er
visits
in
a
year,
that
it's
not
unusual,
to
see
some
members
of
a
group
to
go
to
the
er
10
times
in
a
year.
So
the
fact
that
we
have
one
member
who
went
three
times
is
extremely
low.
Again
goes
back
to
our
group.
We've
got
a
really
good
member
group
here
that
is
using
the
insurance
in
the
right
way,
they're
seeking
their
doctor's
advice.
First
they're,
not
using
the
emergency
room
as
their
primary
care.
O
Physician
they're
relatively
healthy.
They
are
relatively
young,
so
we
have
a
good.
We
have
a
good
group
here.
I
guess
is
the
bottom
line.
The
last
page
I
want
to
talk
about
is
page
31
of
the
utilization
report,
and
that
is
preventative
care.
We're
not
we're
not
in
a
a
bad
way
compared
to
the
benchmark.
O
If
you
look
at
the
top
cancer
screenings,
cervical
cancer,
the
benchmark
is
25
and
a
half,
and
we
were
at
28.9
so
higher.
So
that's
very
good.
Colon
cancer
screenings
are
good.
The
one
thing
would
be
we're
a
little
shy
on
mammograms
screenings.
So
the
benchmark
is
43.5
and
we're
at
41.1
percent
down
at
the
bottom
primary
care,
physician
care,
so
primary
care.
What
tests
are
our
employees
seeking
from
their
primary
care
physician
that
are
preventative?
O
O
So
I
did
talk
to
blue
cross
blue
shield
they're,
actually
looking
for
some
communication
tools
that
we
could
send
out
about
preventative
care
to
send
out
to
our
group,
like
maybe
on
a
monthly
basis
since
some
of
some
flyers
or
something
to
be
posted
throughout
just
reminding
people
to
have
those
preventative
care
appointments
made
and
take
care
of
themselves.
So
those
are
kind
of
an
overview
of
those
two
reports.
O
Does
anyone
have
any
questions
about
where
we're
at?
With
that?
No,
I
will
say
it's
interesting
as
you
look
at
this,
and
you
know
these
especially
the
high
cost
claimants.
These
people
that
are
high
cost
claimants,
really
work
with
our
department
every
every
piece
of
the
way
of
what
we
do
touches
them.
We
work
with
them
on
fmla.
O
M
I
just
wanted
to
compliment
what
a
partnership
this
becomes
between
blue
cross,
keeping
these
records,
so
you
can
help
plan
and
also
to
help
the
patient
help
our
employees
if
there
is
a
need
or
some
some
area
of
education.
So
it's
a
very
helpful
report,
especially.
I
read
the
utilization
report
first,
which
was
really
positive
before
I
read
the
january
report,
but
it's
also
good
that
blue
cross
commented
that
we're
are.
We
are
better
than
many
other
groups,
so
good
job.
A
A
You
don't
premiums
go
up
if
you
use
the
er
too
much
or
you're,
not
asking
for
generic,
so
you're,
not
managing
your
own
plan
and
you're
using
it
like
a
punch
card,
then
all
of
a
sudden
the
employees
are
so
happy
with
the
insurance
might
not
be
so
happy
because
you
got
to
change
because
the
rates
went
up
because
you
misused
it.
So
I
it's
good
to
see
everybody
pulling
on
the
same
end
of
the
rope.
A
A
No
problem,
thank
you,
sir,
going
to
administrative
need,
appointment
of
christine
allen
to
the
limestone
fire
protection
district,
reappointment
of
mark
rogers,
kanke,
county
gis,
along
with
lori
gadboy
to
the
county,
gis,
eric
blair
and
timothy
nugent.
Those
are
all
reappointments
and
appointments.
Can
I
get
a
motion
to
combine
and
improve
mr
long,
mr
hunter
roll
call
on
zoom.
Please.
A
It
is
okay,
it's
another
one:
okay
and
four
openings
on
the
blooms
grove
cemetery
association,
moving
on
any
new
business
to
consider
before
moving
to
old,
all
righty
old
business
e-waste,
intergovernmental
agreement
update.
I
asked
ben
to
join
us
to
tell
us
about
what
municipalities
are
on
board,
where
we're
at
in
a
general
brief
succinct
way
and
if
there's
any
questions,
because
this
is
dragging
onto
a
long
meeting,
do
you
have
anything
enforcement
because
we
still
have
more
things
to
tackle
so.
P
Yeah,
just
very
briefly,
mr
chairman,
I
want
everybody
to
be
aware,
so
we
have
an
executed
agreement
with
karma
executed
agreement
with
mantino
executed
agreement
with
hersher,
saint
anne
and
hopkins
park,
so
we've
got
a
good
kind
of
mix
there.
That's
seven
communities
that
have
signed
on.
We
do
have
only
three
no's
so
far.
P
I
do
have
correspondence
with
three
other
communities
that
were
working
through
their
their
process
on
first
reading,
the
second
reading,
so
I
might
be
out
about
the
communities
doing
a
little
bit
of
finalization
with
it,
but
just
for
the
edification
to
know
by
executing
that
karma
agreement
by
putting
together
the
funds
from
mantino
and
then
obviously
the
county
funds.
We're
gonna
have
plenty
plenty
of
fun
sex.
You
can
agree
with
our
vendor
and
still
have
funds
for
marketing
this
program.
P
It's
it's
not
gonna
be
fully
funded,
but
when
we
say
not
fully
funded,
it's
gonna
be
nearly
fully
funded
because
the
couples
that
we've
had
the
no's
for
aren't
big
dollar
figures
and
we're
still
going
to
go
back
to
them
and
work
on
them
and
explain
the
the
pitfalls
of
not
being
part
of
the
program.
But
we
wanted
you
to
know
that
it's
moving
forward.
A
And
what
we're
doing
is
we're
going
to
execute
the
agreement
with
the
vendor,
we're
putting
in
the
the
the
tracking
criteria
into
the
agreement.
So
we
make
sure
it's
codified
that
what
information
we
need
to
fulfill
our
end
of
the
program
that
we
need
from
them.
You
know
where
is
it
coming
from?
What
is
it
you
know
down
to
the
person
you
know,
so
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
accounting
for
this
on
a
yearly
basis
so
and
they
they're
going
to
do
the
same.
So
we're
close.
A
It's
it's
up
and
running
for
those
municipalities
in
karma.
They
were
kankakee
bradley.
You
know
bourbon
a
roma
park.
I
don't
think
I
missed
anybody.
Did
I
okay,
but
those
they're
in
and
so
is
mantino.
Those
are
the
ones
who
are
currently
doing
it.
So
we
do
have
a
mechanism,
it
is
up
and
running,
but
we
want
the
public
to
be
able
to
start
going.
We
want
it
as
close
to
march
1st
as
possible
and
we'll
let
everybody
know
we'll
have
an
announcement
when
that
happens.
P
P
I
I
have
not
had
a
chance
to
follow
up
with
the
mayor.
I
know
that
I
did
present
to
them
and
I
thought
we
had
relatively
positive
feedback.
It
just
appears
they.
We
didn't
get
an
invite
to
that
meeting.
So
I
don't
know
what
the
the
overall
dialogue
was,
but
I
do
need
to
reach
back
out
to
the
mayor
and
see
what
what
was
discussed
at
that
point.
A
Right
so
just
in
in
the
corporate
limits
of
limestone
itself
is
a
no
I'm
aware:
yeah
they'll
have
to
pay
if
their
residents
would
have
to
pay
if
they
go,
do
it.
Okay.
Moving
on
I
real
quick,
we
have
a
proclamation
in
your
packet
that
was
supplied.
Actually,
dell
asked
me
to
bring
this
forward
I'd
like
to
waive
the
reading
and
see
if
I
get
a
motion
to
approve
this,
mr
carrico,
a
second,
mr
kinzinger.
Basically,
you
see
all
the
the
the
language
there.
A
B
B
A
F
F
A
A
A
You
know
changing
backgrounds,
it's
it's
something
that
it's
problematic
for
me.
Zoom
is
because
people
forget
that
we're
here
representing
districts
at
times
they
think
we're
just
sitting
at
home
in
the
pjs
and
that's
not
acceptable
at
all.
So
I
would
strongly
encourage
the
board
to
come
back
to
committee
meetings
in
person,
but
it's
you
start
to
get
into
slippery
slope
when
you
say
you
have
to
be
here,
because
there
are
at-risk
people,
you
can't
ask
them
that
because
of
hip-hop,
but
obviously
it's
a
concern.
F
A
A
Well,
there
may
be
others
there
may
be
others,
so
yeah
you're,
not
you're,
not
alone.
In
that,
don't
don't
don't
think
you
are
so
and
everybody's
opinion
is
respected
on
this
matter.
You
know
it
with
technology.
I
think
we've
learned
that
we
could
do
this
indefinitely
if,
if
the
oma
was
suspended
in
this
map
this
right,
but
the
question
then
becomes:
should
we
we
we
could
do
it
and
still
do
business,
but
I
think
something
suffers
and
I
think
everybody
would
agree
that
something
has
suffered.
A
You
know
that
that
being
able
to
look
people
right
in
the
eye
as
you're
having
a
debate,
you
know,
hey
youtube,
don't
make
me
come
back
there,
no
I'm
just
kidding,
but
you
know
what
I'm
saying
so
just
consider
it.
I
strongly
consider
it,
and
even
if
you
are
gonna
stay
home,
let's
kind
of
step
it
up
a
little
bit,
no,
not
room
full
of
people
talking.
You
know
what
I
mean
it's.
A
F
A
That's
the
only
reason
we
have
problems,
because
it's
all
got
to
work
together
with
with
the
broadcast
software,
and
we
can't
get
that
type
of
coordination
out
there
and
I
would
defer
to
the
people
who
actually
know
what
they're
talking
about
is
why?
But
there
is
reasons
so
and
then
you
know
for
the
full
board.
We
could
go
rent
some
place,
but
I
don't
think
we
want
to
spend
that
kind
of
money
because
it
we'd
have
to
not
only
rent
a
place.
A
We'd
have
to
bring
all
the
equipment
with
us
and
and
the
field
of
broadcast
and
like
we
do
live
and
all
of
our
oma
exceptions
depend
on
live
broadcast
and
public
comment
being
able
to
call
in
you
know
we
may
be
able
to
have
public
comment
there,
but
in
a
gymnasium,
but
what's
the
price
of
that
cost
at
least
three
grand
a
meeting
we
found
out
barebones
yeah.
So
all
right
thanks.
A
I
want
to
give
you
a
redistricting
update.
The
redistricting
committee
is
a
tripartisan
committee
because
we
have
three
parties
on
the
board,
so
it's
made
up
of
mr
hess
is
the
chairman,
mr
payton
is
the
vice
chair,
mr
featherling.
Miss
parker,
mr
hunter,
mr
siroi,
miss
weber,
miss
polk
and
mr
collins
are
the
committee,
and
so
the
timeline
is-
and
mr
leard
mentioned-
that
the
full
board
you
know
needs
to
approve
and
send
to
the
county
clerk.
A
What
I
had
here
by
the
statutes
was
the
july
full
board
meeting.
We'll
definitely
have
that
hammered
out
we're
not
going
to
miss
the
deadline,
because
that's
something
you
do
not
want
to
do.
None
of
us
wants
to
see
that
happen,
and
it
won't
happen
so
worst
case
it'll
be
approved
the
month
before.
But
again
we
may
not
have
data
to
even
begin
this,
so
we're
going
to
progress
like
the
date
is
going
to
be
here
until
we
know
it's,
not
okay,
so
the
redistricting
committee
we're
going
to
meet
in
a
public
meeting.
A
A
The
first
first
they'll
vote
on
a
series
of
foundational
items
related
to
the
process,
and
mr
rose
going
to
go
through
this
in
the
meetings,
so
you'll
have
the
legal
side
of
it
and
then
we'll
have
the
job
that
needs
to
be
done
and
what
those
timelines
are
within
that
job.
You
know
first
you're
going
to
need
to
know
how
many
single
member
districts
they're
going
to
have,
whether
it's
28
or
if
it's
24
or
18
or
12..
A
You
know,
76
percent
of
the
counties
in
the
state
of
illinois
are
single-member
districts,
we're
looking
at
the
the
statutes.
I
believe
we
miss
the
opportunity
to
go
multi-member
districts.
There
used
to
be
seven
four-member
districts
in
the
county
that
opportunity
has
to
go
out
to
referendum.
That's
my
opinion,
mr
rose
checking
that
out
that
would
have
had
to
have
happened
last
year.
A
I
think
we
wanted
to
stay
with
single
member
districts
and
we
had
a
referendum
on
that
in
2010
and
the
voters
said
they
wanted
28
single-member
districts
back
then
some
people
forget
that
we
talk
about
that.
The
voters
had
another
opportunity
to
say
they
wanted
21
and
they
did
say
they
wanted
that
as
well.
So
just
remember:
there's
two
votes
that
happened
out
there
in
the
last
basically
10
years.
What
the
voters
said
they
wanted
and
28.
Yes,
single
member
and
21
single
member.
A
Well,
not
they
didn't
say
single
member,
because
that
wasn't
part
of
it,
but
just
21
members
total.
So
that
has
to
be
considered
as
well.
The
type
of
pay
is
it
gonna,
be
salary
or
per
diem.
Salary
means
we
take
what
the
typical
per
diem
would
be
for
a
board
member,
which
is
about
three
grand
a
year.
If
you
come
to
all
the
meetings,
if
you
miss
you
don't
get
paid
well,
if
it's
salary,
as
we've
had
a
board
member
argue
for
you,
they
get
paid
regardless
if
they
show
up
or
not.
A
So
the
board
members
now
get
70
per
diem,
with
no
health,
insurance
or
mileage
to
and
from
the
meetings.
As
I
said,
roughly
three
thousand
a
year,
if
they
go
you'll
have
to
determine
the
salary
of
the
chairman
and
the
liquor.
Commissioner,
at
that
point,
usually
that
comes
later,
but
in
reapportionment
years
it
comes
at
that
point.
A
The
final
decision
by
vote
of
the
redistricting
committee
should
be
completed
and
sent
to
the
full
board
for
april,
and
so,
if
we,
if
you
know
this
is
so
then
then
the
work
begins
on
the
map.
Once
you
determine
how
many
districts
there
are,
then
the
map
can
happen
and
that
work
just
doesn't
happen
overnight.
I've
been,
we
have
a
program.
We
spent
five
thousand
dollars
on
this
program.
It's
really
nice.
It
really
helps
you
can't
just
move
streets.
A
You've
got
to
move
census
blocks,
I've
been
doing
it
for
about
three
weeks,
just
to
make
sure
I
was
versed
in
it
and
our
gis
team
is
versed
in
it.
So
it's
it's
it's
it's
a
project
to
say
the
least.
So
the
first
thing
has
to
happen.
So
we
can
do
the
next
bit
of
work,
and
I'm
saying
you
know
we
should
do
this
by
april,
because
then
we
got
more
time
to
do
it.
If
we're
delayed,
that's
just
more
time,
we
could
be
done
in
july,
or
we
may
not
be
done.
A
We
could
get
done
and
then
say
the
new
census
gets
downloaded
into
gis
and
then
we
may
have
some
minor
adjustments
based
on
populations.
Moving.
So
again
we'll
talk
about
all
this
in
the
meeting,
but
an
executive.
I
wanted
you
and
the
public
to
hear
that
this
is
going
on,
but
the
committee
will
make
those
decisions
and
then
recommend
them
to
the
full
board
and
then
the
full
board
votes.
A
A
The
redistricting
committee
will
listen
to
all
sides
of
an
issue
and
make
their
recommendation
to
the
board
so
part
of
that
initial
decision
making
process
will
be
to
hear
all
sides
of
that
argument.
The
reason
to
reduce
the
reasons
not
to
reduce
not
just
you
the
public
and
then
they
can
weigh
on
those
as
well
and
then
the
legal
basis
for
the
map
is
something
very
important
that
everybody
needs
to
understand,
and
that
was
the
main
reason
I
wanted
to
talk
to
you
today
about
this.
A
A
Okay,
that's
a
big
distinction,
because
at
28
our
deviation
was
no
more,
I
believe,
than
one
and
a
half
percent,
which
is
very
little
if
you
think
about
it
in
a
2,
000
person
district.
That's
not
much
deviation
between
all
the
districts
from
hershey
the
size
of
that
one.
All
the
way
hopkins
park
grant
park,
they're
all
balanced
in
the
municipalities.
A
A
good
example
would
be
mr
payton's
area
if
we
were
trying
to
equalize
that
population
and
still
keep
sun
river,
terrace
and
hopkins
park
together,
because
that's
a
strong
desire
of
that
area.
Well
in
order
for
them.
If
you
go
down
to
24
or
18
districts,
they're
going
to
have
to
match
up
with
population
as
the
county
divided
by
18.,
so
that
110
000
divided
by
18,
it
tells
you
how
many
districts
with
the
population
is
going
to
be
so
things
will
change
and
change
dramatically.
A
If
you
go
the
lower
you
go,
but
even
at
24
it
blows
up
the
map
in
and
of
itself.
So
I
just
want
to
mention
that
this
will
all
be
visual.
In
the
committee
meetings,
you
can
divide
townships
or
municipalities
when
necessary
to
conform
to
population
requirements.
You
see
all
everything
points
back
to
population
equality
which
we
have
right
now
don't
divide
precincts,
but
those
are
going
to
be
created
anyway.
Recreated
through
this
process
as
well,
so
precincts
are
drawn
after
the
county
board.
A
A
We
can
get
an
option
for
this
redistricting
software
that
costs
thirteen
thousand
dollars
that
lets
the
public
submit
their
maps.
So
that's
a
decision
that
the
board
will
have
to
make.
Do
we
wanna?
Let
the
public
draw
maps.
Now
we
don't
have
the
money
to
teach
them
how
to
do
it.
The
software
would
be
available
on
a
portal,
but
they
could
say
well,
like
here's
a
good
example,
you
can't
have
19
members.
It
cannot
be
a
prime
number,
so
it
can
be
obviously
1820
you
can
have
21.
A
It
makes
it
problematic
because
then
you'd
have
to
have
three
separate
groups
of
people
running
in
elections
four
years
four
years
two
year
terms,
four
two
four
and
then
two
four
four.
So
it's
different,
usually
it's
divide
the
number
divisible
by
two
it
works
best
for,
but
you
can't
have
divisible
by
three.
Just
can't
be
prime.
So
obviously
you
know
23
would
be
out.
19
is
out
and
go
from
there,
but
that
13
000
option
it's
pretty
expensive.
A
I
can
tell
you
that
that's
more
than
you
would
save
by
reducing
the
county
board
by
four
members,
but
that's
okay.
If
the
board
thinks
that
that's
the
way
you
want
to
go
to
give
the
public
an
option,
I
think
it's
a
good
idea,
but
I
don't
th
the
money's
going
to
have
to
be
discussed
because
that's
13
grand
it's
not
a
little
bit
and
if
we're
going
to
save
roughly
10
a
year,
if
we
reduce
by
four
members
kind
of
kind
of
tells
you
a
little
bit
what's
going
on
there.
A
So
I
want
to
at
least
get
that
in
front
of
everybody
and
make
sure
you
understand
the
timelines
and
what
the
mission
of
this
group
is.
You
know
I've,
there's
an
ex-county
board
member
who
I've
heard
say.
Why
does
you
know
municipalities
need
so
many
board
members?
Well,
the
law
says
you
do
it's
based
on
population,
it's
not
that
bradley
should
have
one
and
bourbon
a
should
have
one
and
moment
should
have
one
it's
population,
it's
not
municipality!
That
drives
this
and
I
hope
that
resonates
with
everybody.
Is
there
any
initial
questions
there?
A
A
A
P
P
I'm
rooting
for
snow
still,
so
I
know
everybody
wants
nice
warm
weather.
I
heard
comments
earlier,
I'm
still
groups
so
on
the
land
bank.
You
know
in
putting
this
together.
This
has
been
the
culmination
of
probably
several
years
worth
of
work,
but
really
we're
talking
about
a
pretty
solid
year
of
the
staff
at
the
city
in
the
county,
going
back
and
forth
and
working
with
chairman
wheeler,
and
what
I
wanted
to
do
just
a
little
bit
on
the
the
iga
was
just
to
kind
of
call.
P
Some
of
the
points
forward
to
the
group
to
talk
a
little
bit
about.
You
know
what
a
land
bank
is,
how
and
what
it
does
kind
of
how
the
tool
works
and
then
how
this
partnership
between
you
know
a
city
and
a
county,
a
home
rule
city
with
their
authority,
the
county
being
the
tax
trustee
really
makes
sense
as
far
as
putting
putting
a
land
bank
together.
I'm
not
gonna
read
this
quote
to
you,
but
I
do
feel
it's
poignant.
This
is
this:
is
dan
kildee?
P
He
was
the
president
of
a
group
called
the
center
for
community
progress.
He's
now
a
congressman
from
the
detroit
area,
but
I
think
it's
very
important
for
people
to
understand
as
we're
looking
at
land
banks
and
and
how
to
do
this.
If
we
were
going
to
be
successful
as
communities,
we
really
have
to
address
vacancy,
and
this
is
not
only
residential
vacancy,
and
I
know
that's
how
kind
of
community
progress
looks
at
it,
but
it's
also
commercial
industrial
vacancy.
How
do
we?
P
P
We've
got
properties-
and
I
know
andy
andy-
and
I
have
talked
quite
a
bit
about
this:
we've
got
properties
within
our
tax
sale
that
have
gone
to
10
and
12
and
15
sale
and
errors,
and
that
costs
us
administrative
time
and
money
as
a
jurisdiction
to
continue
to
keep
these
properties
going
through
this.
So
how
do
we
save
our
efforts?
How
do
we
get
a
tool
put
into
a
place
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
continually
seeing
this
going
back
and
forth?
P
P
Of
in
three
parts,
we've
got
a
a
crummy
house,
you
know
on
the
on
the
left
side,
we've
got
some
things
that
need
to
be
done
in
the
middle
and
we
turn
that
in
so
we've
got.
You
know,
degrading
houses
cause.
You
know,
issues
in
population
decline,
quality
of
life
issues,
they
become
fire
safety
issues.
We
have
these
issues
within
our
cities.
P
We
have
these
issues
within
just
the
rural
county
drain,
the
local
taxing
districts
of
their
funds,
because
you're
you're
building
this
levy
with
an
expectation
that
you're
going
to
receive
funds,
and
then
you
end
up
increasing
your
levy
because
previous
year's
property
taxpayers
weren't
paying
taxes.
So
we
we
make
a
deal.
We
make
an
investment,
we
do
some
work
and
then
what
do
we
do?
Out
of
that?
We
we
increase
our
tax
base,
we
stabilize
neighborhoods,
we
get
rid
of
attractive
nuisance,
we
remove
derelict
properties,
we
create
business
opportunities
with
it.
P
P
A
land
bank
is
a
tool
in
which
we
could
utilize
to
reach
those
goals
or
attain
those
goals,
and
so,
when
we
talk
about
how
it
works,
a
land
bank
being
not
a
but
a
non-uh
non-for-profit
a
quasi-governmental
entity,
it
doesn't
cost
as
much
to
hold
the
properties,
they're
allowed
to
execute
temporary
leases,
and
I
think
maybe
the
fourth
point
down
fifth
point
down.
This
is
a
transactional
nature
entity.
P
P
You
work
through
the
redemption
process,
you
get
it
picked
up,
you
lower
that
basis,
and
you
get
it
turned
around
into
somebody
who's
going
to
pay
taxes,
and
we
can
build
all
of
the
program
and
procedures
out
of
this
intergovernmental
agreement.
If
we
want
to
focus
on
single-family
home
owner
occupied
for
the
residential
properties,
we
can
do
that.
We
can
give
priority
to
those
users
and
then
the
final
point
here.
P
The
land
bank
is
not
obligated
to
do
the
highest
bidder
and
they
can
put
together
activities
to
say
if
there's
a
need
in
a
specific
area
for
a
certain
thing,
we
could
potentially
turn
it
over
to
maybe
somebody
who
didn't
bid
as
high
but
is
offering
a
better
return
for
our
community.
So
that
could
be.
That
could
be
that
component,
where
we
want
end
users
to
be
single-family,
you
know
contributing
properties.
P
We
want
our
end
users
to
be
a
particular
industrial
or
commercial
user,
and
we
can
use
this
this
tool
to
kind
of
introduce
that
where
you
get
that
basis
lower,
you
get
the
and
I
hate
to
say
tax
white,
but
you
get
the
taxes
settled
on
that
back
taxes.
We
turn
it
over
and
then
like.
How
does
it
apply
to
us?
The
the
land
bank
surprisingly
and
I've
utilized
this
before?
It's
an
amazing
conduit
between
the
property
holders,
the
the
city,
the
county,
does
not
own
the
property.
P
We
want
things
to
be
done
for
the
property,
but
we
don't
have
that
that
ownership
stake.
So
we
can
work
with
our
partner
in
in
the
land
bank,
which
is
which
is
made
of
us
and
say
you
know
we
want
you
to
go
out.
We
want
you
to
meet
with
these
owners.
We
want
you
to
be
that
conduit.
They
can
have
private
conversations.
P
They
bring
back
to
the
board
kind
of
the
agreements
that
they're
putting
together
the
board
doesn't
authorize
those
agreements,
but
it
allows
that
that
conversation
to
be
had
it
really
streamlines
the
process.
You
know
again
lower
basis
property
assembly
if
they
could
bid
carrying
costs
slower
than
we
can
bid
carrying
costs.
We
don't
pick
on
mark,
we
don't
want
to
have
you
know
the
county
highway
department
out
mowing
grass
for
us.
P
A
I
P
P
That
is
all
I
have
from
from
a
quick
powerpoint
standpoint.
I
I'm
happy
to
share
that
with
you.
I
just
really
wanted
to
touch
on
those
points,
and
I
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
information
in
this
document,
but
you
know
the
way
we
kind
of
codify
this
exercise
is
to
put
together
together
this
intergovernmental
agreement
between
us
and
the
city
once
that's
executed.
Then
we
put
together
policies
and
procedures
of
how
the
land
bank
operates.
P
A
Q
Q
A
Q
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
You
know
this
is
taxpayer
money
could
be
taxpayer
money
funding
this
and
we
need
to
have
people
who
are
going
to
be
paying
the
bills,
making
the
decisions
now
that
group
of
six
directors
can
bring
in
expertise
and
talk
to
them,
but
I
think
six
directors
need
to
be
taxpayers
other
than
that.
I
liked
the
criteria
set
forth
for
the
directors,
so,
mr.
G
G
Those
individuals
have
w-2s
as
opposed
to
what
you
just
mentioned,
chairman
1099s,
that
that's
the
concern.
I
concur
with
ron
and
I
got.
I
got
one
other
question:
how
the
bonding
authority-
and
I
know
that's
one
of
the
tools,
but
how
do
you
determine
the
amount
for
bonding
or
is
that
something
that
you
you
go
through
and
make
assessments
etc?
A
That
would
that
would
be
this
board.
You
know
as
it
stands
of
three
and
three,
and
it
will
require
consensus
amongst
all
members
and
obviously
we
would
have
three
members
from
the
county
that
would
be
voicing
our
opinions
on
any
bond
initiative.
They
have.
The
next
step
will
be
the
board
to
do
their
bylaws
and
those
types
of
things.
We
have
this
agreement
here
in
front
of
us
that
creates
it.
Then
the
bylaws
need
to
be
created.
A
A
A
Indirectly,
yeah
yeah,
so
if
it's
okay,
could
I
suggest
how
the
motion
would
be
made
from
what
you're
saying
it
would
be
a
motion
to
approve
with
the
changing
that
letter?
I
I,
if
you
will
of
page
five
section,
a
local
government
directors
to
w-2,
employee
or
kankakee
county
resident,
is
that
what
you're
suggesting.
A
A
As
ben
mentioned,
it's
not
just
on
residential,
it's
on
commercial
as
well,
and
you
really
need
the
county
who's,
the
county
trustee
who
are
the
the
only
entity,
that's
able
to
wipe
the
taxes
and
the
the
the
fees
for
all
taxing
bodies,
you
need
them,
and
then
you
need
a
home
rule
community
who
has,
and
then
home
rules
extended
to
whoever's
part
of
this
and
hopefully
at
some
point
in
the
near
future.
We
can
include
hopkins
park
and
bradley
and
bourbon
a
and
mantino
moments,
and
we
have
this
county-wide
it'd
be
great.
A
We
have
to
start,
and
that's
one
of
the
reasons
that
I
insisted
it
had
to
have
something
that
was
more
regional.
I
suggested
river
valley,
you
know
regional
land
bank
authority
that
was
rejected.
Originally
we
had
an
agreement
on
kankakee
land
bank,
our
kankakee
county
land
bank
authority,
and
that
didn't
fly.
So
we
came
back
with
kanken
key
regional,
it's
that
was
suggested
by
the
city
of
kankakee.
We
have
an
agreement
there
so
now
we're
to
this
point.
Q
A
Can
do
that
it
can
be
accounted
for,
but
you
don't
have
to
right
right.
We,
the
only
the
only
thing,
I
think
what
you
guys
are
saying
is
they
have
to
have
a
local
tie,
they're
going
to
bond
out.
They
need
to
be
accountable
to
local
people
absolutely,
and
I
would
I
would
agree
with
that
as
well
as
we
talked
this
through.
Mr
featherly
had
something
yeah.
D
D
To
amend
the
regional,
the
original
motion
to
include
the
county
involved
in
this-
I
understand
it
wasn't
brought
it
together.
Why
should
we
not?
Why
should
it
not
be
have
kinky
county
on
it,
you're
putting
down
the
buses
for
the
metro?
Why
don't
you
put
it
on
the
the
bills
for
the
extra
committees
and
all
the
extra
work
that's
going
to
go
on
in
the
office
there.
A
A
G
A
G
J
G
A
You
understand
what
I'm
saying:
we
will
have
three
appointed
members
of
the
board
that
will
definitely
be
lockstep
with
what
the
desires
of
the
county
are.
Okay,
does
that
make
sense,
because
they're
gonna
need
100
agreement
on
everything
in
order
to
move
forward?
That's
the
way
we
set
this
up.
We
don't
want
any.
You
know
one
hold
out
that
could
put
a.
We
need
total,
lock
step
moving
forward.
So
we
have
a
motion
on
the
floor
and
a
second
to
amend.
Are
we
ready?
A
We
have
to
do
roll
call
on
the
amendment
only
to
change
the
name,
because
then
it
would
have
to
go
back
to
the
kankakee
city
council
for
their
approval
on
the
name,
change
and
any
other
amendments
that
we
come
up
with
so
we'll
have
to
roll
call.
This
is
just
on
the
amendment.
Yes,
if
you
want
to
change
the
name.
No,
if
you
don't.
M
C
C
D
A
All
righty
moving
back
and
thank
you
for
that.
That's
our
right
to
express
our
opinion
and
we
didn't
as
to
what
we're
here
for
moving
back
to
the
original.
We
have
a
motion
and
a
second
any
more
discussion,
and
it
does
include
with
the
changes
on
section
iii
of
section,
a
to
read:
w-2,
employee
or
county
resident.
J
G
There'd
been
a
prior
discussion
with
with
county
board
member
payton
and
kenzinger,
and
yours
truly
and
of
course
you
know,
we
articulated
our
on
readiness
to
the
chairman
as
well
too.
So
what
I
really
appreciate
based
upon
our
discussion
and
and
I
think
ron
will
concur
and
peyton
chairman
will
concur
that
we
had
some
discussion
about
this
previously.
So
that's
the
product
of
board
member
kenzinger's
motion
in
my
second.
A
D
A
A
F
A
A
Okay,
yeah,
it's
part
of
the
packet,
so
yes,
it
is,
it
will
be
on
file,
but
any
any
specific
questions
about
that.
What
it
might
mean
you
know
we'll
get
either
steve
will
answer
any
question
you
have,
or
we
can
have
me
discuss
it
tomorrow
at
finance.
It's
probably
the
best
thing,
so
we'll
get
specific,
all
righty
any
motions
now
I'll
make
a
motion
of
adjourned.
Thank
you,
mr
hess
ii.
