My

12
years

D
I
also
have
two
businesses
here

the
city
of
kankakee
and
we
just
wanted
to
come
out

get
a
little
information
to

what
was
going
on
in
the
city
of
kent
key
this

Just
to
say,
we
appreciate
all
the
ottomans
and
the

good
job
that
everybody
has
been

and
we
just

E
Good
morning,
everybody
good
morning,
my
name
is
apostle.
Kenneth
orr
and
I
am
the
senior
pastor
of
real
love
ministries,
international
church,
147,
north
washington,
in
bradley
I'm
a
resident
of
bourbon
a
I
have
a
insurance
independently
owned
and
operated
business
in
bradley
illinois,
1044
north
street.
E
I
had
applied
for
some
assistance
through
the
kcr
grant
and
I
was
denied-
and
I
wanted
to
know
why,
because
it
was
said
that
I
have
property
in
other
states.
So
I'm
a
I'm
a
registered
voter
in
this
community.
E
I
have
my
business
in
this
community
and
I
pastor
in
this
community.
I
have
a
food
pantry
that
we
feed
through
the
pandemic.
We
fed
probably
over
2500
2600
families
in
this
community,
so
I
live,
serve
pay
taxes
in
this
community.
So
I
just
wanted
the
explanation
of
why
I'm
being
denied
help
from
this
community
that
I
serve
and
that's
that's
my
purpose
of
being
here.
Thank
you.
A
A
F
Now
they're
pretty
self-explanatory,
still
positive
news
overall,
so
hopefully
the
trend
that
trend
continues.
So
nothing
specific
enough.
Somebody
has
you
know
a
specific
question.
We'll
spend
a
lot
of
time
on
it
all
right.
Questions.
A
F
Yep
cash
flows
continues
to
do
well
and
as
far
as
averages
no
concerns
the
next
three
months
are
really
were
into
april
for
may
and
june,
which
is
historically
been
our
toughest
cash
flow
months.
If
you
look
at
the
very
bottom
line,
you
know,
there's
no
concern
so
there
at
this
point,
so
good
news
as
well.
F
Yeah
well,
this
is
a
credit
card
claim.
If
you
will
activity
arrive
to
us.
This
is
for
the
edmund
and
chairman
wheelers.
I
don't
know
if
chairman
wants
to
share
any
insights
on
this
chairman.
A
A
E
A
The
most
claims
are
in
the
packet.
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
of
mr
peyton,
dr
pogue,
any
discussion
on
their
monthly
claims.
A
B
A
Arpa
fund
status-
I
want
to
speak
to
that.
Please
steve.
F
Yeah,
just
an
update
for
the
current
funding,
meaning
the
first
payment
for
both
the
arpa
fund
itself
and
then
the
lost
revenue
fund,
as
well
as
which
will
bring
us,
I
believe,
to
the
next
item.
As
far
as
the
original
sub
amounts
of
250
000
for
the
one
for
the
business,
a
non-profit
fund
and
the
other
for
the
non-covered
government
unit
funds,
we
have
remaining
balances,
the
arpa
business
and
non-profit
balance
with
information
through
today.
F
You
know
that
is
be
will
come
before
us,
we'll
have
22
000
397
remaining
and
then
for
the
non-covered
governments.
The
original
from
the
original
250
000.
There
will
be
15
000,
roughly
700,
left
in
that
from
that
activity
of
the
county
board,
recognized
and
authorized
as
far
as
you
know,
to
put
aside
for
for
those
two
for
those
activities.
So
that's
an
update.
F
We
do
have
information
and
communication
from
the
department
of
treasury
for
the
second
payment,
so
there's
an
application
process
similar
to
the
first
one
that
we're
working
on,
and
I
will
let
you
know
we
might
have
it
by
next
meeting.
I'm
not
sure
so
we'll
we'll
see
some
but
we're
getting
close
to
the
to
the
distribution
of
the
second.
What
they're
calling
tranche.
A
As
the
committee
will
recall,
when
we
set
up
the
parameters
for
how
we
were
going
to
distribute
funds,
we
talked
about
the
fact
that,
as
we
saw
what
happened
in
the
distribution
of
funds,
we
might
be
wanting
to
consider
whether
it
make
any
adjustments.
A
It
would
appear
that
at
this
point,
we
may
need
to
start
thinking
about
doing
something
on
that
order.
I
don't
know
if
this
is
necessarily
the
time
we
want
to
do
it.
Mr
chairman,
would
you
want
to
speak
to
that.
G
Yes,
sir,
that's
why
I
was
on
the
agenda
was
to
have
the
committee
consider
establishing
or
re-establishing
these
funds.
Just
looking
at
the
tax
years
of
20
versus
21.,
we
did
19
versus
20
the
second
year.
The
pandemic
was
20
and
21
reopening
up,
because
some
of
the
people
that
received
you,
you
remember,
there's
a
cap
on
the
businesses
and
not
for
profits
of
ten
thousand.
So
maybe
those
businesses
had
a
continued
that
bad
trend
for
the
second
year.
G
So
there
was
a
thought
of
re-establishing
you
know
say
playing
out
the
string
with
this,
the
money
we
have
here.
Let
people
still
apply
for
this,
but
re-establish
these
funds
and
fund
them
at
250
and
250
like
we
did
the
first
time
and
they
would
take
an
action
of
this
committee
and
then
full
board
to
do
so.
A
Is
committed
clear
on
the
kind
of
proposal
here
that
we
have
and
we
have
a
proposal
in
terms
of
moving
so
that
we
recognize
what
happens
to
entities
in
the
second
year
of
the
pandemic.
A
A
As
I
understand
what
we're
proposing,
we
assume
that
the
people
that
had
something
in
1920
I've
already
made
their
applications
or
there's
a
small
amount
of
money
left
that
they
would
use
they
could
still
use.
This
proposal
would
apply
simply
to
applications
dealing
with
revenue
and
losses
in
the
year.
2021.
A
As
compared
to
2020.,.
F
Mr
chairman,
I
have
a
question
yeah
thank
you
for
those
that
were
previously
approved
as
it
closed
for
them,
or
will
it
open
back
up
since
we're
opening
up
another
year?
Let's
throw
that
out
to
the
committee
because
we
may
have
reapply,
I
mean
there's
one
thing
to
reapply:
if
you
know
some
for
some
reason,
I
didn't
qualify
under
the
ridge
one,
but
what
about
the
approvals
if
they
come
and
reap
you
know
apply
a
second
time.
What
is
the
committee's
thought
on
that?
F
I
A
You
would
prefer
to
only
be
new
applications.
I
I
saw
some
kind
of
heads
indicating
a
different
opinion,
so
we
need
to
sort
out
what
the
preference
of
the
committee
is.
A
K
K
So
did
we
not
have
some
applicants
that
were
denied
and
the
rules
have
changed
slightly
since
then?
Would
it
not
be
okay
for
those
persons
to
reapply.
A
H
A
If
their
loss
was
in
19
and
20.,
there's
one
proposal
that
we're
trying
to
clarify
is
whether
those
people,
bad
losses
in
1920,
would
be
ineligible
or
whether
they'd
still
be
eligible,
and
that's
what
the
committee
needs
to
decide.
Yeah.
If
it's
your
sentiment
and
the
majority
of
the
committee
says
those
that
had
laws
in
1920
and
haven't
done
it
yet,
then
the
committee
would
get
to
decide.
G
You,
if,
if
you
use
like,
say
bar
restaurant
as
an
example,
the
pandemic
mis
exacerbated
their
problems
over
that
two
year
period.
So
when
my
intention
was
is
to
people
that
had
a
bad
year
in
19
to
20
because
of
the
pandemic,
they
could
that
could
have
continued.
G
So
I
don't
think
you
should
eliminate
people
in
making
just
only
new
people,
because
that
could
have
been
continued,
especially
in
that
sector,
that
I
just
talked
about
those
places
that
were
impacted
by
the
well
questionable
mandates
out
of
springfield
arbitrary
mandates
and
grouping
of
counties
together
to
shut
their
businesses
down.
So
that's
that's
why
I
think
my
suggestion
was
when
I
thought
of
this
was
to
to
make
it
you
could
reapply
because
it
just
the
pandemic
didn't
end
for
you
the
first
year
it
continued.
The
second.
A
I
I
I
hear
the
committee
asking
the
different
kind
of
question.
I
hear
the
committee
asking
the
question,
someone
that
didn't
apply
but
had
a
loss
in
1920.
Would
they
still
be
eligible
to
apply
in
this
second
round.
G
Were
shutting
down
19
to
20
because
there's
been
a
full
year
to
apply
to
this
point
and
we've
done
extensive
public
outreach.
If
you
don't
know
about
it,
it's
been
on
the
radio
it's
been
in
the
newspaper.
It's
been
in
public
events,
it's
been
in
webinars,
it's
been
on
our
website.
It's
been
everywhere
that
we
can
reach
beyond
knocking
on
people's
doors,
so
this
would
be
kind
of
put
that
one
to
bed.
So
we
can
focus
on
the
second
year
of
the
pandemic.
G
J
J
Well,
I
was
making
that
motion,
but
maybe
after
we
get
done
with
this,
we
can
talk
about.
The
second
statement
I
made,
which
is
what
I
was
thinking.
A
L
J
If
they
have
losses
in
I'm
sorry,
if
they
have
losses
in
21,
then
they
need
to
apply
again
and
would
be
eligible.
It
doesn't
matter
as
far
as
I
was
concerned.
If
they
apply
in
19
and
20,
just
they
should
be
applying
for
the
20
loss
or
21
losses.
A
This
is
simply
setting
policy,
but
we
are
going
to
be
spending
money
for
it.
So
maybe.
C
C
A
This
is
an
authorization
to
set
up
the
of
the
same
monetary
structure
that
we
had
with
our
first
program
funding
promotion,
but
it
would
apply
only
to
applications
and
income
expenses
during
the
year
2021.
C
C
F
Were
you
gonna
take
out,
he
was
he
had
that
second,
the
the
19
and
20.
he
brought
up
19
and
20?
Were
you
guys
going
to
discuss
that
or
do
you
want
me.
A
To
okay,
yeah,
that's
right!
Mr
farfield,
you
talked
about
maybe
putting
more
money
into
1920.
J
A
G
C
C
Okay,
I
was
just
wondering
if
there's
any
special
articulation
to
the
public
regarding
the
extension
and
additional
funds
being
placed
in
there.
So
I'm
fine.
A
A
A
B
F
Yeah
we
have
two
but
not
recommended
under
not
recommended
for
approval
this
morning
and
just
a
reminder
to
the
committee
for
small
businesses,
the
small
business
category
under
the
federal
arapa
plan.
One
of
the
primary
aspects
is
fiscal
impact
and
we've
been
determining
that
by
tax
filing
and
also
since
each
county
received
funds.
We're
also
tasked
with
making
sure
you
know
it's
a
county
business
and
we've
been
using
tax
forms
for
that.
F
So
the
two
before
us
today,
your
covered
insurance
agency
first
first
of
all,
did
not
meet
the
fiscal
impact.
F
F
The
business
tax
returns
had
have
a
gary
indiana
address
on
him,
as
well
as
the
w-9
that
we
were
provided
for
that.
So
so
those
are
the
two
reasons
for
those
I
don't
you
want
to
take
them
one
at
a
time.
C
On
that
yeah
I
have
a
question:
is
that
the
same
business
that
the
gentleman
spoke
on
public
comments
or
not.
C
Yes,
okay,
now
let
me
be
clear
now:
did
I
hear
it
correctly
that
the
filing
was
under
a
different
state.
A
A
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
that
not
recommended,
or
is
there
question
still.
C
Had
there
been
any
discussion
with
the
gentleman
who
who
made
application
in
terms
of
what
the
errors
were
with
his
submission
and
counseled
him
in
terms
of
what
it,
what
needed
to
be
done
not
to
falsify
anything
in
terms
of
you
know,
showing
that
the
business
was
generated
in
illinois
versus
indiana?
Had
there
been
any
discussion
with
him
in
terms
of
how
might
it
be
done
in
a
more
appropriate
fashion
and
legal
fashion,.
M
F
If
there
is
additional
financial
impact
in
the
new
underneath
the
new
2021
program
that
the
board
is
now
establishing,
that
could
be
reassessed
for
2021,
but
we
assessed
the
19
and
20
at
this
point.
C
Okay,
I'm
clear
on
that
and
I
don't
have
any
problems
with:
what's
being
articulated.
A
The
the
the
financial
impact
is
part
of
the
federal
guidelines
right
yeah.
F
A
B
F
F
For
babylon
industries,
it
was
a
request
under
the
small
business
aspect
and
it
was
for
501c3
application
expense.
So
the
two
things
there
that,
as
was
presented
to
us
on
this
application,
the
business
income
improved,
so
it
didn't
meet
the
financial
impact
and
then,
at
this
also
the
501
c
3
application
expense
is
not
an
eligible
administrative
expense
under
our
boss,
so
that
is
the
the
501c3
could
apply
separately,
but
in
this
case
they
applied
underneath
the
business.
F
B
A
C
F
So
lost
revenue
we
have
none
today
and
then
arpa
there's
an
amending
resolution,
previous
resolution
from
october
for
the
state's
attorney's
office
and
digitization
of
files.
I
believe
that's
in
your
packet,
I
don't
have
yeah.
A
F
I
don't
have
the
I
forget
kelly,
or
do
you
have
that?
What's
the
changes.
A
G
Is
this
a
personal
service,
or
is
this
bid
required.
N
G
Thank
you.
I
just
want
that
on
the
record,
so
he
can
read
that
amount
it's
well.
I
can't
it's
68
055
is
the
quote,
because
we've
done
that
before
we
release
the
quote
amount
before
we
say
it's
a
bid.
What's
the
point
of
a
sealed
bid
at
that
point,
so
I
will
say
that
I
would
view
the
planning
department
in
the
same
manner.
So
then
we
shouldn't
have
to
go
out
to
bid
for
all
the
planning
department's
digitization
as
well.
They
had
three
quotes
that
should
be
fined
as
far
as
I'm
concerned.
G
N
B
F
F
B
A
F
Kinky
east
side,
junior
football
league
there's
a
request
for
ten
thousand
they're.
They
provided
us
with
their
financial
information
and
their
their
impact
was
greater
than
ten
thousand
so
other
eligibility.
It
was
fifties
with
the
fifty
excuse
me.
The
fifty
percent
reduction
within
the
municipality
is
eligible
for
five
thousand
funding.
A
Mr
hunter,
dr
polk,
any
discussion,
roll
call
vote.
Please.
C
F
The
kinky
regional
land
bank
request
for
twenty
thousand
dollars.
I
will
let
somebody
else
explain
this
one
though.
G
Thank
you.
This
was
came
as
a
result
of
the
land
bank
is,
is
now
formed.
The
the
board
is
formed
if
you
will
starting
to
get
moving
those.
This
funding
request
was
for
seed
money
to
acquire
property
residential
property
to
start
the
land
banking
process,
which
is
to
get
something
that
is,
as
an
example,
boarded
up,
get
liens
taxes,
everything
wiped
away
back
taxes
and
get
it
into
the
hands
of
either
a
developer
owner
developer
to
to
get
it
back
on
the
tax
rolls.
G
So
in
order
to
do
that,
you
got
to
do
a
little
bit
of
legal
work,
depending
on
you
may
have
to.
You
know:
pay
someone
three
or
four
grand
to
get
get
out
of
the
way
of
the
property,
but
the
goal
is:
is
to
get
it
on
to
on
to
the
tax
roll.
So
this,
the
city
of
keiki
key,
will
be
doing
something
similar
with
this.
I
don't
know
the
exact
method
they're
gonna
use,
but
we're
we're
county-wide.
G
F
Housing
support,
affordable
housing
is
the
category.
A
C
You
may
not
be
able
to
provide
specificities,
you
know,
we're
kicking
in
the
county's
kicking
in
20
and,
and
this
land
bank
is,
is
a
a
county
entity.
C
C
G
To
to
start
with,
we
are
available,
we
were
discussing
seed
money
to
get
the
ball
rolling,
it's
not
a
county
organization.
I
want
to
make
sure
we
got
that's
clear.
It's
a
separate
governmental
body.
I
understand
yeah.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
this
isn't
like
the
county's.
Not
we
have
appointees
on
the
board.
So
does
the
city?
The
main
focus
is
with
this.
Funds
are
going
to
be
the
residential
side
of
things
and
we
could
deploy
those
within
the
city
of
kankakee
or
the
land
bank.
G
We
can't
do
anything
in
bourbon
a
we
can't
do
anything
in
bradley
or
grant
park
or
mantino
or
anything
else
like
that
unless
they
were
to
join
the
land
bank
down
the
road.
So
typically,
also
when
you're
talking
about
a
development,
let's
say
building
x,
where
there's
seven
figures
of
liens
on
it,
it's
a
commercial
property.
Some
bank
thinks
they've
got.
You
know
a
five
million
dollar
property
where
it's
not
worth
a
buck
twenty,
and
it
needs
a
lot
of
work
with
back
taxes
and
everything
else.
G
C
G
C
G
A
public
meeting
posted
agendas
and
when,
when
they
get
up
and
running,
these
projects
are
going
to
be
very
visible.
So
it's
there's
one
under
discussion.
That's
very
visible
right
on
court
street.
You
know
there's
other
things
that
are
happening,
but
they
first
needed
to
organize
get
their
bylaws
together,
make
sure
they
had
full
elected
positions.
G
Now
we're
ready
to
start
or
they
are
ready
to
start
moving
in
that
direction.
C
G
Currently,
the
secretary
is
barbie
brewer
watson,
that's
kankakee's
appointee
right,
so
we've
got
all
the
minutes.
You
have
to
have
that
stuff.
So.
C
Yeah
and
now
I
know
that
there
weren't
half
minutes,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we
as
county
board
members.
You
know,
based
on
the
monies
that
we're
allocating
for
seed
money
and
additional
moneys,
that
we
provide
that
we
will
be
getting
minutes
like
we
do
with
any
other
activities
and
county
government.
That's
all
I
was.
I
was
asking
for.
G
Yeah,
maybe
we
have
them
report
on
a
quarterly
or
semi-annual
basis
to
community
service
or
something
to
say
what's
going
on,
I.
C
Agree
and
and
something
or
even
something
or
something
like
this
chairman
wheeler,
you
know,
for
example,
when
tim
nugent
came
and
made
a
presentation
before
I
think
he
made
the
presentation
before
the
entire
county
board.
C
That's
something
that
maybe
should
be
requested
of
us
to
them
that
so
all
of
us
are
hearing
the
same
information
together,
and
I
like
your
idea
of
them
coming
maybe
quarterly
and
making
making
reports.
A
Any
other
questions
or
discussion
now,
as
I
understand
it,
their
vision
may
well
be
to
focus
on
commercial
properties
first
before
residential
is
not
a
hard
decision
to
make
right.
G
It
is
not
we
can
bring
opportunities
to
the
land
bank
and,
via
our
you
know,
standing
in
that
organization,
because
it
doesn't
work
without
the
city
and
it
doesn't
work
without
the
county.
If
either
one
of
us
goes
away,
it
implodes,
it
doesn't
work,
you
need
both
entities,
home
rule
and
the
trustee.
You
know
for
all
the
property.
So,
but
we
can.
We
can
look
at
opportunity,
it's
opportunity
driven
and
it's
also
strategic,
because
you
don't
necessarily
want
to
do
a
house
here,
a
house
here,
a
house
here.
G
G
In
rural
areas,
we've
got
places
identified,
I've
got
little
blocks,
zoned
out
by
pembroke
township
the
north
side
of
the
river
by
the
state
line.
You
know,
there's
some
undeveloped.
You
know
areas
out
there
that
have
some
boarded
up
houses
with
can't
find
the
owner.
You
know
what
I
mean
that
kind
of
stuff,
so
we've
identified
those
pockets
in
the
county,
but
it's
really
the
land
bank.
That's
making
that
decision.
A
B
F
Just
real
quick,
we
ran
into
this
like
yesterday
afternoon
with
harper
related
chris,
is
doing
the
required
quarterly
filing
and
we've
been
on
webinars.
We
try
to
hit
the
webinars
for
arpa,
because
all
these
changes
as
much
as
we
can
in
gfoa
and
ucci
within
the
last
two
weeks
missed
this.
The
treasury
now
changed
all
of
the
codes
that
are
in
our
application
packet
that
we've
been
following,
so
we
now
have
a
this
was
the
old
one.
This
is
the
new
one
list,
so
we
haven't
fully
assessed
it.
F
We
might
have
to
now
update
the
applications
again,
but
what's
also
happening
is
more
information
is
now
so
on
the
first
in
january,
we
did
the
filing
and
you
know,
got
a
sense
of
what
it
was
going
to
be
like
now,
we're
doing
and
adding
to
projects
and
things
that
they're
asking
for
and
now
demographic
information
on.
Some
of
these
codes
is
now
showing
up,
so
that's
taken
us
even
longer
and
unexpected
as
far
as
having
to
go
find
and
do
so.
F
We
might,
especially
with
the
community
services
part
we
might
have
to
have
a
conversation.
You
know
and
look
at
this
a
little
bit
differently
in
a
bigger
picture
and
because
the
filing
and
what
the
treasury's
re
asking
for
in
these
quarterly
reports
is
changing
as
we
speak
as
well.
So
it's
I've
never
seen
anything
like
this.
This
changes
every
time
we
turn
around
so
we're
doing
our
best
to
stay
up
with
it
and
try
and
you
know,
but
it's
obviously
changing
the
uc
side,
gfoa
people
that
are
trying
to
help
everybody.
F
It's
even
you
know,
they're,
it's
changing
even
beyond
them,
because
none
of
them
none
of
the
other
webinars
mentioned
this
change.
You
know
until
we
were
filing
and
then
all
of
a
sudden
there.
It
is
so
so
that
if
you
see
other
applications
and
stuff
coming
down
the
way,
that's
why
we'll
try
to
keep
up
with
it?
The
best
we
can
so.
A
If
we
need
to
use
some
of
the
opera
funds
to
help
us
on
the
administrative
costs,
we're
thinking
about
making
sure
that
this
is
another,
you
can
provide
us
with
the
information
so
that
we
can
authorize
whatever
needs
to
be
to
take
place,
because
we
appreciate
the
way
in
which
you've
done
this
well
and
we
want
to
keep
it
done
being
done
in
the
best
way
possible
appreciate
it.
Thank
you.
C
Mr
lear,
yes,
thank
you
very
much,
mr
chairman,
mr
mccarty,
you
know
you
reference
demographics
I
mean,
and
what
context
are
they
asking
for
that
information?
Could
you
define
that
or
is
that
defined.
F
Well,
the
the
project
that
it
came
up
on
was
the
pembroke
sewer
project.
F
It
referenced,
it
asked
us
for
the
area's
median
income
and
the
county's
median
income.
C
F
C
G
Nice
twitter,
thank
you,
mr
chairman.
Does
this
mean
that
we
potentially
could
have
to
go
back
and
amend
all
of
our
resolutions
with
the
new
codes
you
see
where
yeah
we
were
putting
4.1
or
1.3
or
in
the
resolution.
F
They're
allowing
it
yeah
we
like,
I
said
we
were
trying
to
assess
this
last
night,
but
like
the
these
resolutions
that
are
before
you
today,
you
know
I
was
using
using
the
old
code,
so
we
might
want
to
try
at
least
get
the
new
ones
in
you
know,
and
with
the
resolutions
going
for
these
today,.
F
A
great
question-
I
I'm
not
sure
at
this
point
well
certainly
definitely
need
to
look
at
it
well
for
full
board
yeah
and
then
maybe
make
a
list
or
something
I
I
chris
I
mean
he
adjusted
on
the
filing,
don't
yeah.
At
this
point,
it's
hard
to
tell.
F
A
A
You
have
the
treasures
report.
That's
been
made
available
to
you
good
morning
good
morning.
Let's
go
ahead
and
have
a
motion
to
combine
and
approve
the
reports.
Mr
and
dr
polk.
O
It's
it's
nice
to
be
able
to
see
everybody's
face
instead
of
the
backs
of
the
chairs
steve,
I
hope
you're
feeling
better.
I
all
I
have
is
that
we've
taken
in
approximately
well
it's
heading
toward
a
thousand
prepayments
for
taxes,
which
we're
pretty
happy
about
we're
continuing
to
try
to
push
internet
payment
and
that's
rising
every
year
and
tax
bills
will
be
in
the
mail
approximately
may
20th,
with
a
june
30th
due
date,
first
due
date,
other
than
that
things
are
going
well.
O
I
I
want
to
just
actually
say
that
my
office
will
be
intimately
involved
with
the
business
aspect
of
the
land
bank
and,
oh,
my
god,
is
that
a
great,
a
great
concept
for
us.
I
mean
that
to
get
a
property
back
on
to
the
tax
rolls
is
incredible.
If
we
can
make
that
happen,
there
are
a
lot
of
properties.
They
don't
generate
any.
O
Not
only
do
they
not
generate
any
income
for
taxes,
they
create
the
most
amount
of
work
in
the
office,
so
they're
they're
actually
they're
a
negative
drain
right,
so
they're
not
creating
taxes,
but
they
create
all
our
work
in
terms
of
selling
them
and
and
certificates
are
sailing
heirs
and
these
sorts
of
things.
So
I'm
keeping
my
fingers
crossed
that
we
might
be
able
to
put
some
businesses
and
homes
back
on
the
tax
roll.
So
that's
all.
I
have.
G
I
don't
know
if
it's
appropriate
to
mention
now
or
once
we
get
it
more
together,
but
the
whole
sale
and
error
insurance
or
not.
Excuse
me
interest
business.
That's
out
there
that
we
are
used
for
our
sale
and
error
possibilities
on
these
little
slivers
of
land.
I
don't
know
if
you
want
to,
because
you'll
have
to
come
back
here
for
this
committee
too.
I'm
not
sure
I
understand
what
you're
saying
you
know
those
little
like
little
pieces
of
property
that
you
can
never
do
anything
with
right,
the
sale.
G
O
I
guess
a
quick
primer
would
be
a
lot
of
people,
don't
understand
it.
The
text
there's
two
tax
sales
number
one
one
is
tax
surplus
auction,
which
is
properties
that
the
our
trustee
has
that
we
then
auction
to
the
public,
but
the
tax
buyers
are
people
who
are
buying
tax,
liens,
right,
they're,
buying
a
lien
on
unpaid
taxes
and
that's
a
whole
different
ball
game
that
goes
from
18
to
zero.
It's
a
reverse
auction
and
for
most
people
it's
I'll
bite
my
tongue.
O
On
that
I
was
for
for
most,
it's
just
an
interest
game
right.
So
there's
a
lot
of
research
done
and
the
perfect
person
is
someone
whose
taxes
have
been
delinquent
who
have
been
purchased
by
a
tax
buyer
and
have
been
redeemed
when
they
get
redeemed
at
the
clerk's
office.
They
get
their
interest
payment.
So
we
essentially
collect
interest
for
the
tax
buyers,
we're
the
people
that
collect
it.
O
They
give
us
the
money
for
the
taxes,
but
at
the
end
they
get
everything
back
plus
interest
so
and
that's
how
it
works,
and
that
and
and
and
you
that's
why
a
property
you'll
see
you
know,
never
gets
purchased
because
it
has
a
history
of
never
being
redeemed,
but
there's
nothing
better
to
them
than
a
property
that
continues
to
come
in
and
come
out
and
come
in
and
come
out
because
they're
making
money
and-
and
what
sometimes
will
happen,
is
they'll
bid,
zero
percent
on
a
property
in
this
when
we
sell
them
which
in
the
beginning
was
like
well,
why
would
they
do
that?
O
O
So
it's
it's
a
real
sophisticated
game,
business
yeah
and
it
creates
an
amazing
amount
of
work
for
us,
because
what
what
a
tax
buyer
will
do
is
they'll
buy
someone's
property
the
best
deal
right.
This
is
great,
we're
gonna.
O
They
don't
really
want
your
property
right,
they
want
the
interest,
they
want
you
to
redeem
it,
but
if,
by
chance
you
don't
redeem
it
and
now
we're
getting
toward
that
three-year
mark
where
they
have
to
take.
They
have
to
apply
for
a
deed
and
then
take
the
property.
Because
that's
what
the
law
states,
then
they
say.
Oh,
look,
there's
a
there's.
A
lawn
mowing
lead
lean
from
the
city
of
kankakee,
so
we're
out
and
they
back
out
and
then
they
still
get
their
interest
on
their
money
and
we're
stuck
now
with
a
property.
O
That's
been
sitting
for
three
years,
so
it's
it's
heads
I
win
tails
you
lose
for
sure.
So
the.
G
Whole
point
is
like
ways
to
synergize
that
open
door,
basically
with
the
land
bank
and
what
they
can
do
and
maybe
there's
there
are
ways
the
two
can
work
together
to
maybe
make
it.
Those
properties
aren't
available
exactly
yeah,
and
then
we
would
be
asked
to
hey.
Let's
it's
work,
this
amount
of
money,
it's
in
our
favor,
based
on
those
interest
payments
to
actually
fund
these
getting
going
over
to
the
land
bank.
There
has
to.
O
Be
a
way
for
us
to
take
property
that
doesn't
generate
any
tax
income
and
be
creative,
as
mo
as
creative,
as
we
can
be
in
in
a
legal
sense
to
create
an
opportunity
to
make
those
tax
generating
properties.
I
mean
it's
no
more
apparent
than
in
kankakee
and
and
and
the
more
that
are
taxed,
not
tax,
generating
the
larger
the
burden
becomes
on
those
that
pay
their
taxes.
A
O
Boy,
that's
a
tough
one,
sam,
it's
there's,
there's
so
many
different
ways
doing
it.
Chicago
has
a
whole
different
way
of
doing
things.
It's
yeah,
it
probably
is,
but
I
I
wouldn't
think
it'll
change.
It's
so
ingrained
in
the
state,
the
tax
buyer
system-
and
it's
it's
huge
money.
There's
guys
that
come
in
here-
and
I
don't
know
if
anybody
understands
us
that
walk
downstairs
and
write
a
check
for
two
million
dollars.
O
Right,
I
mean
they're,
not
these
people
are
not
and
then
then
they
package
these
deals
up
and
sell
them
that
off
to
as
investments
right,
that's
how
we
got
in
the
real
estate
problem.
You
know,
crisis
so
they'll
package
up
a
bunch
of
these
delinquent
properties
and
sell
them
as
an
investment
vehicle
because
there's
a
guaranteed
interest
rate.
So,
but
it's
it's
not
good
for
our
community
at
all.
So
and
when
andy
came
and
talked
to
me
about
this
idea,
you
know
anything
that
we
can
do
to
move
property
back
onto
a
tax
roll.
C
Chairman
wheeler,
yes,
mr
hunter
and
chairman
lear,
this
may
not
be
the
appropriate
venue
to
to
articulate
my
question
and
a
request,
and
I
understand
what
treasure
afrikanel's,
indicating
and
and
what
the
mission
is
of
the
land
bank
is
to
take
these
properties
and
put
them
back
on
the
tax
world.
C
Why
couldn't
there
be
some
kind
of
component
training
component
built
in
for
individuals
who
could
learn
certain
traits
in
terms
of
plumbing,
roofing,
carpentry
and
so
forth?
Not
only
would
you
be
affording
the
opportunity
for
training
with
the
land
bank
and
restoring
the
properties
back
to
a
viability
and
being
placed
back
on
the
tax
roll
you're,
affording
certain
individuals
and
opportunities
to
to
learn
some
skilled
trades.
So
that's
something
to
think
about
chairman
wheeler
and
treasure
africano
and
those
individuals
who
are
on
the
land
bank
committee,
something
to
think
about.
A
A
You
have
the
sheriff's
monthly
report
in
your
packet.
A
That's
been
approved
at
criminal
justice.
P
Really
not
much
I
mean
the
the
report
speaks
for
itself.
I
I
think
the
the
positive
out
of
out
of
anything
that's
on
this
report
right
now
is
that
our
revenue
is
not
quite
as
low
as
what
we
thought
it
was
going
to
be
after
the
state
of
illinois
prevented
us
from
housing
for
ice.
P
As
I
reported
to
the
criminal
justice
committee
a
couple
weeks
ago,
we
are
actually
housing
some
inmates
from
champaign
county,
which
has
offsets
some
of
the
loss
that
we
thought
we
may
incur.
P
So
that's
certainly
a
positive
thing.
So.
P
It
depends
on
the
definition
of
long
term.
I
guess
I
think
we're
talking
the
last
time
I
talked
to
the
sheriff
in
champaign
county,
which
was
a
few
days
ago.
I
mean
we're
looking
at
outward
of
a
year
or
so.
A
P
P
Long
term
for
now
we'll
see
what
happens
in
another
year.
You
know
the
other
issue
to
keep
in
mind
is
that
that
pending
litigation,
that
is
at
the
appellate
court
level
now
regarding
ice,
actually
oral
arguments,
I
believe,
are
being
heard
on
may
18th,
so
that
is
still
active
as
well.
P
P
I
will
be
here
anyway,
but
I
don't
have
to
come
up
here
and
you
know
let
you
know
what
you're
seeing
in
front
of
you
I'll
be
here
to
answer
questions
and
and
more
than
likely,
based
on
past
history,
probably
be
here
to
answer
to
some
claims
that
aren't
recommended
for
payment.
P
So
I
will
be
here
anyway,
but
I
think
from
from
here
on
out.
Unless
things
change,
I
mean
I
I
certainly
don't
I
mean
your
time
is
as
valuable
as
anybody.
So
if
I'm
sure
everybody
in
here
would
be
happy
to
make
these
meetings
shorter,
so
I'm
good
with
that.
I
mean
I
still
report
to
the
criminal
justice
committee
and
so
unless,
like
I
said,
I
will
more
than
likely
be
here
about
every
meeting
anyway.
A
P
That's
fine
with
me
future
meetings
I
mentioned
at
the
criminal
justice
committee
about
vehicles
and
the
purchase
of
vehicles.
The
state
bid
contract
contract
pricing
will
not
come
out
until
may.
P
So
it's
more
than
likely
something
that
I'll
bring
back
to
criminal
justice
once
we
get
those
prices
and
come
back
to
maybe
request
know,
maybe
about
it,
probably
request
vehicles
for
this
year,
but
until
that
price
comes
out,
we
can't
do
anything
anyway.
P
Two
things
to
keep
in
mind
a
we
don't
know
with
the
increased
vehicles
pricing
we
don't
know
what
that
contract
price
is
going
to
be,
and
secondly,
we
don't
know
what
the
availability
of
those
vehicles
will
be.
So
we're
kind
of
battling
two
things
at
once
here
so,
but
I
will
definitely
keep
the
criminal
justice
committee
up
to
date
and
and
as
with
anything,
if,
if
any
of
you
ever
have
to
get
a
hold
of
me
or
have
a
question,
certainly
call
we'd
be
more
than
happy
to
answer
it
anytime
and
then.
P
Lastly,
we
are
anticipating
a
payment
from
the
illinois
department
of
corrections
for
housing,
their
inmates
that
they
refuse
to
take
and
violate
statute
taking
sentenced
inmates.
I
was
told
on
march
30th,
when
I
submitted
the
after.
We
had
a
conference,
call
and
worked
through
the
the
housing,
and
this
housing
is
only
up
until
I
believe
june
30th
of
2021.
P
G
P
And
I
did
have
just
one
briefly:
I
did
have
some
claims
that
also
were
not
recommended
that
it
was
a
miscommunication
between
our
office
and
and
the
finance
director's
office
that
were
not
included,
so
they
will
be
here,
I'm
sure
they
will
be
on
the
next
list
next
month.
So
I
I
will
be
sitting
in
the
back
and
be
more
than
happy
to
explain
the
ridiculousness
of
our
auditor.
M
P
No
they're,
the
the
car
dealers
that
I
have
talked
to
the
ones
that
we've
dealt
with
pretty
regularly
have
are
are
waiting
because
they
can't
do
anything
until
they
keep.
J
K
A
All
right,
we
have
nothing
from
the
auditor's
office.
No,
that
seems
to
be
standard
that
he
doesn't
show
up
or
send
any
information
to
us.
So
is
there
any
other
business
to
come
before.
A
A
The
legislature
in
the
last
session
passed
a
law
that
implemented
some
information,
some
requirements
in
terms
of
a
share
of
salary
and,
at
the
same
time,
the
illinois
constitution
has
a
limitation
in
terms
of
what
can
be
done
with
the
sheriff's
salary.
I'm
going
to
ask
anita
speckman
to
come
up
our
county
administrator
and
speak
to
some
of
that.
Explain
how
we've
worked
through
this.
Q
Yes,
it
was
a
lot
of
communication
with
the
state's
attorney's
office
and
before
I
do
anything
I
want
to
thank
terry
goudy,
because
you
know
I
send
an
initial
request
when
I
first
find
out
well
by
the
time
we
get
those
answers
back.
It
leads
to
another
question
another
question,
but
she
did
was
very,
very
helpful
in
helping
lay
this
out
and
I
may
have
to
make
her
get
up
yet
again,
we'll
see
if
I
can't
work
my
way
through
this.
Q
There
are
three
issues
with
the
statute
related
to
this
sheriff's
salary,
the
ilcs
5
3-607
that
set
the
sheriff's
salary,
and
it's
at
the
bottom
of
that
page.
I
think
you
should
have
it
in
your
packet
right.
The
bottom
lays
out
so
it
was
signed
april
19th
and
it
sets
the
salary
at
eighty
percent
of
the
salary
set
for
the
state's
attorney
and
the
state
shall
furnish.
If,
if
you
pay
that
eighty
percent,
you
have
to
pay
the
eighty
percent
and
if
so
the
state
will
reimburse
66
and
two-thirds
of
the
total
salary.
Q
So
what
you
can
see
in
the
calculation
before
you
is
this
is
based
on
the
current
state's
attorney
salary.
The
the
current
state's
attorney
salary
is
183,
434
80
would
be
146
000.
The
state
would
reimburse
97
000
and
kankakee
county.
Our
general
fund
would
pick
up
forty,
eight
thousand
nine
hundred
fifteen,
that's
based
on
the
state's
attorney
salary
effective.
Currently,
the
sheriff's
salary
is
currently
a
hundred
and
five
thousand
dollars
a
hundred
and
five.
Q
Oh
fifty
five,
so
it'd
be
a
reduction
of
56
000
to
the
general
fund,
which
sounds
easy
enough,
except
that
there
are
a
few
things.
The
statute
is
effective
immediately,
yet
the
constitution
says
that
any
increase
or
decrease
in
the
salary
of
an
elected
official
shall
not
take
place
during
the
term
of
that
elected
official.
So,
even
though
this
revision
is
effective,
immediately,
terry's
advice
is
that
it
be
effective,
12-1
2022
with
the
new
term.
So
that
was
our
first
issue.
Second,
we
must
pay
80
percent
to
receive
the
state
of
illinois
reimbursement.
Q
Q
So
what
terry
recommends
is
that
we
have
a
motion
to
set
the
sheriff's
salary
at
80
percent
of
the
state's
attorney
salary,
as
indicated
by
the
annual
department
of
revenue,
salary,
reimbursement
notice.
So
we
would
use
this.
What
will
happen
is
that's
the
other
thing.
That's
a
little
bit
different.
Historically,
the
sheriff's
salary
is
set
for
the
term
at
a
fixed
amount.
Q
It
will
moving
forward
change
every
year
with
the
cola
notice
from
the
department
of
revenue,
so
by
just
indicating
that
we're
always
going
to
follow
this
80
percent,
the
state's
attorney's
salary
that
will
change
annually
on
july
1st.
What
it
will
also
mean
that
the
salary
would
be
set
december,
1st
of
2022.
Q
M
M
A
All
right,
mr
long
seconds
out,
let's
have
discussion
because
this
gets
so
complicated
that
I'm
sure
some
of
you
still
have
some
questions
and
maybe
it's
so
complicated
you're,
going
to
simply
praise
the
need
again
well.
A
And
kerry
for
working
us
through
this-
I
I
think
we've
got
an
excellent
proposal
here
and
we've
just
had
a
really
challenging
process
to
go
through
to
get
here.
Are
there
questions.
B
A
B
Q
County
clerk
and
the
county
treasurer
are
are
paid
the
same
currently
and
we're
recommending
the
same.
What
you'll
see
in
front
of
you
and
that's
the
top
two
thirds
of
the
page
that
is
in
your
packet
and
so
using
the
ucci.
Q
They
do
an
annual
salary
survey
and
it
is
optional
to
respond,
but
I
use
that
kind
of
as
a
basis
and
then
I
sort
by
population
so
that
what
we
look
at
is
counties
that
are
similar
in
size
to
kinky
county.
So
that's
what
you
see
in
the
big
gray
box
in
or
in
the
big
black
box
around
those
numbers.
Q
Those
are
the
counties
and
the
amounts
that
I
used
for
the
comparison
and
then
I
used
both
the
average
and
I
calculated
a
compa
ratio
which
a
kampa
ratio
is
used
in
hr
to
and
it
compares
the
salary
that
you're
looking
at
with
the
median
or
average,
essentially
the
midpoint
of
everything
else
in
your
comparison.
So,
if
you
look
at
the
black
box,
the
difference
between
the
midpoint
of
the
range
of
the
highest
and
lowest
is
either
98
or
95
thousand
dollars
both
for
the
county
clerk.
A
G
Yes,
the
stipend
has
to
be
part
of
the
motion
now
per
state
law
that
just
changes.
We
have
to
note
the
stipend
and
actually
we
need
to
make
that
that
notation
for
the
sheriff
as
well,
because
when
we
report
now
we
have
to
have
the
stipend,
it's
a
new
law,
but
we
don't
determine
the
stipend.
We
just
have
to
note
it.
It's
true.
Q
We
don't
we
don't
determine
the
stipend.
It
historically
has
been
6500,
but
that's
not
to
say
that
the
state
wouldn't
pay
a
different
stipend.
As
long
as
I've
been
a
county
government,
it's
been
6,
500.
sheriff
or
somebody
that's
been
here
longer,
probably
corner.
You
can
tell
me
what
it's
been
longer
than
the
last
10
years,
but
it
was
good
at
one
time.
G
Could
we
have
the
motion
be
plus
6500
state
of
illinois,
stipend
or
current
stipend
rate
in
the
resolute
you
see
where
I'm
going
to
leave
us
the
flexibility
in
case
they
change
it?
I
I.
A
M
A
A
If
there
is
no
other
business.
Is
there
a
motion?
Mr
hass

to
adjourn
mr
federer

all
in
