Description
Finance Committee Meeting 2/28/2023 9:30am
B
B
C
D
In
the
years
before
the
pandemic,
steady
improvements
have
been
made
to
the
park
properties
with
the
intent
of
making
the
park
district
a
destination
that
offers
a
wide
variety
of
activities
for
everyone.
The
restrooms,
although
well
maintained
for
years
quite
literally,
had
fixtures
that
were
malfunctioning
and
falling
apart.
There
was
no
choice
but
to
replace
them
with
ADA
Compliant.
D
The
park
district
lost
over
fifty
thousand
dollars
in
revenues
during
covid-19,
mainly
due
to
Lost
rental
revenues
and
lockdowns,
with
a
small
tax
revenue
that
we
get
we
care
for
five
properties
the
park.
There
are
five
properties
which
the
park
cares
for
and
we
lost
so
much
in
revenue
and
it
has
been
a
really
slow
recovery.
Helping
the
park
district
with
this
ADA
Compliant
restroom
renewal
project
will
help
us
provide
appealing
and
appealing
and
comfortable
space
for
everyone
to
recreate
and
gather.
D
I
am
asking
the
committee
to
help
the
park
district
with
an
exception
to
the
arpa
funding
cap
and
extend
an
additional
twenty
thousand
dollars
to
complete
the
ADA
Compliant
project,
with
a
small
as
small,
an
impact
to
the
Park
District
budget
as
possible.
I
know.
Other
government
entities
are
capped
at
twenty
thousand
dollars,
such
as
park
districts
with
less
impact
to
our
budget.
We
can
increase
the
number
of
activities
offered
to
the
community
and
draw
others
to
Kankakee.
County
grow
with
growth
to
everyone's
benefit.
D
I
have
a
whole
list.
I
have
a
whole
list
of
activities
we're
trying
to
complete
this
year.
It's
on
our
website,
which
I
would
love
for
you
guys
to
look
at
the
gallery:
that's
their
momentsparkdistrict.org
to
see
what
we've
been
able
to
accomplish,
even
through
the
the
trying
times
we've
been
through,
but
we're
hoping
that
you
will
help
us
with
this
project.
That
was
we.
We
had
no
choice
but
to
replace
bathrooms.
A
Thank
you
very
much
could
I
have
a
motion
to
allow
Miss,
Parker
Miss
Weber
to
attend
via
Zoom
motion
by
Mr
Swanson
second,
by
Mr
Hunter,
all
in
favor,
say
aye
opposed
motion
carries
next
up
approval
of
minutes
from
January
2000
or
January
25th
2023
motion
by
Mr
featherlene,
second
Parker
by
Miss
Parker,
all
in
favor,
say
aye
aye
opposed
motion
carries
next
up
presentations.
You
want
to
take
this
chairman.
E
I
guess
I
could
yeah
this.
The
first
item
is
the
in
your
packet
is
yet
another
award
that
our
finance
department
wins
every
year
for
financial
reporting.
It's
when
it
started
it
was.
It
wasn't
the
quality
of
the
financial
performance
that
was
being
awarded.
It
was
the
way
that
the
numbers
are
presented
and
the
Acumen
it
takes
to
put
this
together.
E
What
is
this
six
in
a
row?
Steve,
seven,
but
who's
counting
Steve
is
believe
me
because
it's
him
and
his
team
it.
It
really
demonstrates
the
Acumen
and
the
professionalism
they
have
in
their
office
and
so
I
I.
First
of
all
want
to
say
thank
you.
It's
not
just
us
saying
it.
It's
the
the
government
Finance
Officers
Association
that
says
it
as
well.
So
congratulations.
We
appreciate
it.
Thank
you.
E
E
F
Well,
thank
you.
We
certainly
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
to
talk
with
all
of
you.
We
appreciate
any
opportunity
to
talk
about
what
we're
doing
at
the
college,
and
this
is
no
exception
before
we
get
started.
I
do
want
to
introduce
some
of
the
college's
Partners
as
as
we
initiated
this
project
we'll
start
down
here.
Jasper
Jasper,
Jones,
Sheriff's,
Department,.
F
College
and
we
wish
Matt
Kelly
executive
director
of
the
career
center
was
with
us
here
today.
He
was
with
us
as
we
wrote
this
application,
The
Proposal
in
fact,
there's
so
many
other
partners,
I
think
you're
going
to
see
that
in
some
of
the
presentation
material
today,
but
we're
certainly
ready
to
answer
questions
and
and
I
know.
These
folks
are
passionate
about
what
we,
what
we
have
in
store
here.
One
of
the
things
I
want
you
to
hear
as
we
as
we
work.
F
Some
through
some
of
this
material
is
KCC
is
always
focused
as
part
of
our
mission,
and
we
we
see
it
as
our
responsibility
only
to
introduce
academic
and
career
programs
that
lead
to
families,
sustaining
wages,
family
sustaining,
and
we
we've
made
a
commitment
to
that.
There's
only
rare
circumstances
where
we
we
do
not
and
for
very
specific
reasons
that
we
will
offer
any
program
that
does
not
lead
to
a
family
sustaining
career,
and
that
is
our
focus
and
and
in
that
Focus.
We're
always
surveying
the
landscape.
F
To
make
sure
that
our
program
mix
is
right,
that
we
have
the
programs
that
that
our
community
needs
and
and
to
that
end
we
often
receive
some
input,
and
that
was
the
case
here.
We
received
some
info
input
from
our
community
that
we
were
not
meeting
the
needs
of
this
community
as
it
relates
to
diesel
technology,
and
so
when
we
explored
that
we
knew
we
had
to
explore
and
understand.
F
Is
this
a
family
sustaining
career
pathway
and
we
found
out
that
it
is
and
I
don't
know
how
to
advance
the
slides
or,
if
I'm,
relying
upon?
Thank
you
so
much.
So
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
there
was
need
in
our
community
and
and
we
we
had
some
of
these
data
for
the
application
initially,
but
you'll
see
that
we
updated
them
recently,
because
we
want
you
to
see
the
most
recent
data
and,
just
from
a
few
days
ago
there
were
337
unique
postings
for
diesel
technology
in
a
50-mile
radius
of
the
campus.
F
So
that's
a
reasonable,
Drive
and,
and
that
covers
six
counties.
But
even
if
those
Kankakee
County
residents
travel
50
miles
outside
of
the
ca
of
the
county
and
and
earn
a
family
sustaining
wage,
we
know
that
bring
that
back
to
the
county,
but
we
did
want
to
narrow,
narrow
it
down
and
look
in.
In
this
County
alone,
there
are
113
team
that
was
yesterday
113
unique
postings
for
diesel
Techs
in
our
area.
F
And
if
you
take
a
look
at
that
next
statistic
this-
and
this
is
light
cast
data-
we
use
light
cast
what
used
to
be
MC
burning
glass
as
our
economic,
modeling,
software
10
unique
postings
per
month.
On
average,
you
compare
that
nationally,
where
most
counties
see
three
unique
postings
something's
happening
here,
where
there's
a
greater
need
for
diesel
Techs
in
our
local
Workforce
than
Across
the
Nation,
and
it
is
a
family
sustaining
income.
F
With
this
set
of
skills,
but
57
000
as
a
family,
sustaining
career
is
a
great
place
to
be,
and
we
also
want
to
make
sure
that
there's
growth
in
this
industry,
and
so
as
we
took
a
look
at
the
anticipated
growth
next
one
there
please
you'll
you'll,
see
some
comparison
with
State
national
benchmarks.
There's
growth
across
the
state,
Across
the
Nation
for
diesel
tax,
but
take
a
look
at
that.
F
Our
region
is
anticipated
to
see
a
seven
percent
growth
in
the
need
for
diesel
tax
in
the
near
future,
compared
to
State
three
and
a
half
and
foreign
for
just
under
four
and
a
half
nationally
So
within
a
50
mile
radius.
There
is
going
to
there's
already
great
need
for
diesel
Techs
in
this
area
and
there's
going
to
be
even
more
demand
for
people
with
this
set
of
skills.
F
We
know,
there's
need,
and
one
of
the
things
that
excites
Us
in
in
education
in
general,
and
especially
at
the
college,
is
when
we
have
an
opportunity
to
build
a
program
from
the
ground
up.
We
know
that
we
can
build
it
on
a
foundation
of
innovation,
so
some
of
our
currently
existing
programs
we
have
to
retrofit
when
we
need
to
to
add
some
new
features.
F
F
We've
built
that
into
our
program
design,
that's
just
the
certificate
and,
quite
frankly,
many
people
are
upskilling.
They
have
credentials
that
they
need
and
they
want
to
add
this
certificate
to
to
their
resume.
That
may
be
all
they
need
others.
It
may
be
a
place
in
their
career
where
the
certificate
is
what
they
need
today.
They
may
want
to
build
upon
that
later,
and
so
we've
built
this
as
a
stackable
credential.
If
a
person
wants
to
come
back
and
turn
this
into
a
two-year
degree,
they
have
that
option.
F
Currently,
it's
an
automotive
if
we
see
great
success
in
this
program
and
we
think
we
will
we're
going
to
build
that
into
a
two-year
diesel
technology
degree
as
well.
So
there
are
opportunities
for
for
moving
beyond
that.
That's
not
the
only
Innovative
piece
that
we
want
to
to
create
as
a
Hallmark
of
this
program.
We
want
to
build
this
around
work
based
learning,
that's
a
technique.
We've
seen
work
very
well
in
our
health
career
programs.
When
a
student
enters
our
nursing
program
in
week,
one
they're
in
the
hospital,
we
don't
think
about
the
classroom.
F
First,
the
classroom,
experience
being
complete
and
then
entry
into
the
workforce.
We
build
the
learning
into
the
workplace
and
we
want
to
do
that
with
diesel
technology
as
well.
So,
in
our
mind,
the
best
scenario
here
is
for
these
students
to
earn,
while
they
learn
from
the
very
first
week,
they're
going
to
be
in
the
workshops:
learning
there
and
and
partnering
with
the
with
us
in
the
business
and
their
employer
to
complete
the
certificate
and
this
education
now
listen:
This
Is,
An,
Open
Door.
F
One
of
the
things
that
we
know
is
that
our
students,
now
more
than
ever,
are
are
at
risk
they're,
they're,
really
at
risk
in
ways
that
they
haven't
been
before
and
that's
why
we
think
this
program
is
going
to
be
successful
because
of
the
wrap
around
support
services
that
we
already
have
in
place
and
our
ability
to
do
timely
interventions
on
behalf
of
our
students.
So
at
KCC
we've
got
advising
we've
got
career
counseling.
F
We
can
open
the
door
to
students
in
this
program
to
Federal
and
State
financial
aid
through
Pell
Grants
map
grants
Perkins
grants.
Our
goal
is
to
make
sure
that
students
do
not
have
a
tuition
burden
here
and
they
do
not
leave
this
program
with
student
debt.
That
is
our
goal.
Foundation
scholarships
can
help
us
close
the
gap.
If
there
are
any
students
who
are
not
fully
Pell
eligible,
we
know
that
those
scholarships
are
in
place
as
well.
Adult
Ed
is
also
a
wrap-around
service
and
I
want
you
to
know.
We
saying
this,
but
Kankakee.
F
Community
education
program
is
one
of
the
most
Innovative
adult
education
programs
in
the
state
and
I'm.
Going
to
tell
you
specifically
why,
in
most
areas
of
the
state,
you
need
to
complete
your
adult
education
program
before
you
can
do
anything
else,
you
get
their
high
school
equivalency.
You
get
your
high
school
diploma.
That
opens
the
door
for
you
to
take
the
next
step,
not
at
KCC
at
KCC.
We
call
it
the
transitions
Academy,
it's
essentially
a
bridge
program.
F
If
a
student
comes
to
us
without
a
high
school
diploma
and
wants
to
be
in
a
career
pathway,
we've
put
them
in
the
career
pathway
first
and
let
them
get
the
high
school
equivalency,
while
they're
completing
that
career
pathway.
These
students,
if
they
do
not
have
a
high
school
diploma,
we're
going
to
put
them
right
in
the
diesel
tech
program
day
one
and
we're
going
to
let
them
complete
their
high
school
equivalency
in
the
context
of
their
diesel
technology
program.
We
feel
that's
more
beneficial
to
them
than
asking
them
to
finish.
F
A
high
school
equivalency
then
gain
entry
into
a
diesel
tech
program.
We
want
to
get
them
through
this
as
quickly
as
possible,
and
certainly
while
they're
with
us,
they
will
benefit
from
all
of
those
services
that
we
provide
our
EDI
Center,
our
veterans
affairs
Center,
our
Career
Services
Center.
All
those
wrap
around
support
services
are
necessary,
but
it's
in
this
next
slide
that
I
want
you
to
hear
how
the
the
concept
of
partnership
is
core
to
what
we're
proposing
with
this
diesel
technology
program
and
what
makes
it
truly
a
game
changer.
F
We
have
three
people:
Melanie
duax,
Leslie,
Diaz
and
Bryce
Shaffer,
their
their
sole
responsibility
for
the
college
is
to
get
to
know
our
students
get
to
know
the
community
resources
that
are
available
to
support
our
students
and
make
the
connection
at
just
the
right
time,
and
so
our
Student
Success
Navigators
are
in
place
to
connect
our
students
with
mental
health
support,
drug
rehab,
child
care
assistance.
We
know
so
many
of
our
students
and
so
many
people
who
will
be
accessing
this
diesel
Technology
Program
experience,
food
insecurity,
transportation
and
security.
F
There's
personal
issues
that
get
in
the
way,
and
these
folks
not
only
have
emergency
funding
to
support
them,
but
they've
built
a
network
of
40
Community
Resources
represented
by
many
of
you
in
the
room
that
they
can
connect
our
students
to
so
that
we
don't
have
to
send
them
away
from
our
program
to
get
help
and
then
come
back
in
a
future
semester.
We
can
take
care
of
that
issue
timely
so
that
their
progress
through
that
16-week
training
program
is
not
slowed
down
in
any
way.
F
We
know
that
part
of
that
is
communication,
so
this
is
just
a
short
list
of
of
the
partners
that
are
embedded
in
it
and
and
in
our
proposal.
But
we
know
that
that
Iris
platform
that
ability
to
make
referrals
and
communicate
across
these
Partnerships
and
the
the
35
others
are
going
to
be
an
important
part
of
what
we're
trying
to
do
and
those
Student
Success
Navigators
will
not
only
be
trained
in
how
to
use
that
Iris
platform.
F
It
will
be
the
expectation
so
that
we
can
intervene
timely
on
those
students,
behalf
and
so
you'll
see.
These
are
the
core
Partners,
but
there's
so
many
others
Workforce
board,
and
we
owe
this
will
be
a
Workforce
eligible
program,
our
career
center
transformative,
growth,
counseling
and
Helen,
wheeler
Center,
as
well
as
Dwayne
Dean
in
the
living
room
and,
of
course,
the
Kankakee
County,
Sheriff's,
Office
and
and
re-entry
program.
Very
specifically,
we
do
have
a
bear.
That's
why
we're
here
costs
are
significant
for
a
program
like
this
one.
F
We
think
that
there's
great
return
on
that
investment,
but
the
startup
costs
are
prohibitive,
and
that's
why
we're
here
and
talking
with
you.
We
think,
with
the
resources
we're
talking
about
today,
we
can
remove
this
barrier
and
we're
confident
with
that.
The
other
barriers
that
we
think
these
resources
will
help
us
remove
are
finding
the
employers
who
need
diesel
tax
and
convincing
them
that
internship
will
help
us
recruit
students
and
so
helping
them.
F
Remove
that
risk
of
bringing
a
student
into
their
organization
before
they
have
the
certificate
and
partnering
with
us
in
those
16
initial
weeks
of
their
employment
to
earn
those
credentials
is
a
barrier
that
we
think
that
we'll
be
able
to
overcome
because
of
these
resources.
So
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
talk
about
them,
but
I
want
to
leave
you
with
this
before
we
give
you
an
opportunity
to
answer
any
questions.
This
is
a
sustainable
program.
F
We're
gonna
we're
gonna,
make
sure
that
in
that
year
one
we
have
training
opportunities
for
minority
students,
at-risk
communities,
we're
going
to
graduate
two
cohorts
of
students
at
minimum
and
we're
going
to
place
those
key
County
residents
into
full-time
positions
and
with
family
sustaining
wages.
But
if
you
can
go
forward
one
more
time,
I
want
to
leave
you
with
this.
The
reason
we
think
this
is
the
the
a
model
program
for
this
initiative
is
because
it's
sustainable
long-term.
F
This
is
going
to
be
a
very
competitive
program
in
our
Market.
We
did
our
external
scan.
There
is
a
diesel
tech
program
in
Lisle
and
it's
called
universal
Technical
Institute,
that's
there
and
if
you've
got
a
36,
000
check
and
the
wherewithal
to
relocate
to
Lyle
or
to
travel
to
Lyle
every
day
for
the
duration
of
the
program,
that's
an
option
for
you.
F
The
other
option
that
many
of
our
local
employers
are
using
is
Wyoming
Tech
and
if
you've
got
access
to
Aid
and
a
check
of
twenty
one
thousand
dollars
and
you're
ready
to
move
to
Wyoming.
That's
also
available
to
you
we'll
be
able
to
deliver
this
program
if
we
can
eliminate
those
startup
costs
for
three
thousand
dollars
for
those
students
and
we
have
access
to
Federal
and
financial
aid,
and
this
is
a
Workforce
board
eligible
program.
There's
so
many
ways
that
we
can
get
students
through
this
program.
That's
not
cost
prohibitive.
F
That
does
not
burden
them
or
their
employers
with
student
debt,
and
we
think,
because
the
growth,
the
growth
rate
in
this
particular
sector
and
look
if
we
can
create
a
thriving
diesel
tech
program
in
this
County
there
will
be
businesses
who
relocate
here
because
of
that
Workforce.
This
is
a
sustainable
program
that,
if
we
can
get
up
and
running,
will
sustain
itself
long
term
and
really
be
a
Hallmark
of
our
Workforce.
So
thank
thank
you
to
the
county
board
for
for
giving
us
the
opportunity
to
talk
about
it.
A
little
bit.
A
H
F
You
at
we're
gonna
aim
for
none
and
and
I
and
I.
Think
a
lot
of
those
Dropout
rates
have
everything
to
do
with
the
lack
of
attention
to
those
rap
out
wrap
around
Support
Services
money
is
certainly
an
issue,
but
the
wraparound
support
services
for
our
students
is
going
to
be
a
key
to
retaining
them.
Okay
and
utilizing
these
three
Student
Success
Navigators,
we
we
have
already
utilized
them
in
some
of
our
other
high
attrition
programs
and
they've
already
made
an
impact.
F
It
just
so
happens
when
you
have
somebody
whose
face
is
familiar
to
you,
that
you
trust
and
who
can
watch
your
your
progress
in
your
class,
see
your
grade
book
and
that
doesn't
happen
for
college
students.
So
we
foia
is
an
issue.
So
I
watch
my
students
grade
book
all
the
time
my
kids
are
under
18,
so
I
can
look
exactly
when
they
have
an
assignment
doing
they.
Don't
that's
what
our
Student
Success
Navigators
can
do
and
when
they
notice
that
somebody
is
not
making
progress,
they
can
find
them.
F
They
can
bring
them
into
an
office
and
they
can
say
what's
going
on
and
often
those
students
will
say,
look
my
car
broke
down
and
I
don't
have
a
way
of
fixing
it.
So
I
haven't
been
to
class
in
three
days
and
we
go
time
out.
Let's
get
that
taken
care
of
today
or
they'll
say
my
wife
has
coveted
and
we
don't
have
child
care.
I
can't
be
a
class
for
the
next
three
days
and
that's
when
the
test
is
with
these
wrap
around
Support
Services.
F
C
Know
Dr
Boyce
said
not
only
do
they
have
rep
round
s,
but
this
is
also
a
16-week
program
so
that
actually
minimizes
the
dropout
rate,
because
it's
August
to
December
the
time
commitment
is
shorter
for
this
program
to
get
the
certificate
and
so
the
the
drive
and
motivation
there.
They
can
see
the
end
quicker
compared
to
like
a
traditional
two-year
program
where
you
might
have
more
of
a
dropout
rate
so
that
short-term
certificate
I
think
will
also
minimize
the
dropout
rate
that
you
were
speaking
of.
Okay.
Thank.
I
We
understand
that
those
that
are
leaving
our
jails
and
institutions
back
to
Kankakee
County
have
significant
barriers,
and
we
want
to
make
sure
we
protect
them
against
those
barriers,
so
we'll
be
we'll
be
sure
to
make
sure
that
our
wraparound
services
are
available
for
each
and
every
one
of
our
clients
to
assist
them.
Even
in
areas
that
are
traditional,
students
don't
have
that
access.
J
F
E
E
The
motion
is
written
that
they
can
take
advantage
of
another
critical
skill
shortage
within
the
area
and
move
to
that
if
we
knock
it
out
of
the
park
which
we
hope
to
do
and
that
that
kind
of
speaks
to
what
you
were
saying,
I
thought
I'd
mention
it.
The
other
reason
that
I
asked
KCC
to
present
was
this
committee
and
and
versions,
and
people
within
it
have
spent
a
lot
of
time
crafting
that
Social
Services
Program
in
the
the
guide
rails.
E
These
guys
knocked
it
out
of
the
park.
They
actually
absolutely
embraced
everything
that
we
were
looking
to
do,
and
it
is
it
is
an
example
of
not
building
something
new.
It's
building
off
of
what
is
working
and
bringing
other
people
in
to
solve
the
gaps
where
we
lose
people.
This
is
exactly
what
we
were
talking
about
when
we
said
something
that
can
really
change
from
re-entry
for
high
school
kids,
who
say
you
know:
I
I'm,
not
College
material.
E
You
know
because
we
hear
that
I'm,
not
College
material
I
just
want
to
work
on
stuff
this.
This
is
everything
this.
This
is
exactly
what
we
were
looking
for:
I'm,
not
telling
you
how
to
vote,
but
when
the
time
comes
know
that
that's
why
we
wanted
you
to
see
this,
because
this
is
The
Benchmark
of
what
we're
trying
to
base
everything
else
off
of
and
if
we
deny
something
it's,
because
it's
creating
a
duplicative
type
situation
with
a
current
service
provider.
You
know,
so
we
don't
want
to
duplicate
services.
This
is
not.
E
K
Mr
Hunter
yeah.
Thank
you
very
much.
Mr
chairman
I
just
wanted
to
piggyback
on
some
of
the
comments
that
have
been
made
and
and
kudos
to
you,
Dr
Borden
and
your
team.
The
evaluation
team
of
chairman
wheeler
Eddie
Barrio
Carol,
Weber,
Rosemary,
Foster,
Amber
Turner,
and
yours
truly
have
vetted
this
particular
proposal.
We
we
didn't
give
them
everything
that
they
they
wanted.
K
This
particular
evaluation
team,
which
you
guys
have
approved
and
and
appointed
by
chairman
wheeler,
has
been
very
pragmatic.
You've
heard
that
this
is
a
particular
model.
A
positive
model
at
the
wraparound
Services
I
mean
you
know
almost
makes
me
grow
new
hair
when
you
hear
those
kind
of
services
that
are
being
provided
and
John
to
speak
to
the
dropout
rate,
some
of
those
wraparound
services
and
the
articulation
of
of
the
team
members
have
have
been
addressed.
K
Hopefully
we
pose
questions
regarding
diversity
and
and
people
who
would
be
referred
to
the
program
and
we're
quite
satisfied
in
terms
of
their
responses
and
and
their
articulation
and
things
that
we
we
discuss.
So
you
know
I
know
some
of
you
guys
have
some
questions,
but
trust
me
that
we
have
opposed
the
hard
questions
to
them
and
receive
the
adequate
responses
based
upon
our
face-to-face
interviews
and
our
physical
vetting
of
The
Proposal.
L
We
are
we're
getting
ready
for
taxes,
everybody's
favorite
time
of
the
year
right,
we're
heading
toward
mid-may
for
bills
to
come
out.
We
still
we're
still
taking
partial
payments
through
the
choices
program,
we're
getting
more
and
more
early
payments.
So
we're
happy
about
that.
I'd
say:
I'd!
Ask
it
to
continue
to
publicize
it
to
your
constituents
and
we
look
forward
to
to
having
a
record
amount
of
tax
revenue
this
year
as
well
as
we
did
last
year
other
than
that
I.
Think.
A
A
E
Wheeler,
thank
you.
We've
talked
about
this
already
when
KCC
was
doing
their
presentation,
but
we
we
did
a
as
we
receive
these
Social
Service
proposals.
If
you
will,
we
found
immediately
as
the
team
that
there
were
parts
of
them
that
we
could
really
recommend
for
approval
right
off
the
beginning
as
before.
E
Even
you
know
things
that
were
like
food
banks
that
are
automatically
you
know
eligible
if
you
will
per
the
program
per
what
we're
trying
to
accomplish,
and
so
that's
why
we're
back
so
soon
with
some
things
that
we're
recommending
that
we
approve,
because
they
had.
You
know
it
was
a
proverbial
fish
in
the
barrel.
I
mean
they've
been
doing
it.
It
furthers
the
program
it
it
checked,
all
the
boxes
we
need.
E
So,
as
the
team
met
with,
we
interviewed
everybody
I
believe,
except
for
one
I,
believe
we
didn't
even
need
to
interview
St,
John's,
John,
Paul,
II
food
bank,
because
obviously
they
asked
for
just
a
food
bank
funding
so
but
we
did
meet
with
people
that
had
different
angles.
There
were
some
of
these
that
are
partial
approvals.
You
will
discuss
that.
You
know
it
was
the
food
bank
or
this
part
about
it,
housing.
E
You
know
funding
for
people
that
are
facing
eviction
that
that
was
easy
to
get
then
there's
some
things
that
are
a
little
bit
longer,
that
we're
going
to
be
vetting
and
going
back
and
forth
with
some
of
these
applicants.
So
what
you
see
in
front
of
you
is
the
documentation
in
the
packet
for
what
they're
asking
for
that.
We
are
going
to
recommend
that
we
approve
here
today.
There
are
still
maybe
some
more
coming
from
some
of
these
applicants,
but
that
detail
is
mostly
not
in
the
packet.
E
Yet
we
have
some
questions
that
we
need
to
get
answered.
It's
not
like
PPP,
where
you
just
said
that
you
know
you
had
a
business
and
you
know
everybody
became
a
barber
in
their
basement.
You
know
I
mean
it
was
ridiculous,
but
this
were
actually
vetting
and
talking
with
people
and
seeing
how
they're
going
to
do
the
program
and
really
diving
deep
into
it,
because
we
just
don't
want
to
throw
money
at
problems.
We
want
results.
E
I
think
that
was
our
biggest
reason
of
why
we
wanted
not
to
create
new
things
and
connect
everybody
together
to
utilize
what
we
have
here
in
a
stronger
fashion,
so
we're
not
just
wasting
money
on
again
the
same
job
at
six
different
providers
have
one
person
handle
what
they
handle
and
then
we
all
feed
into
the
same
system
so
going
forward.
I
guess
the
first
one
is
a
more
excellent
way
and
and
by
the
way,
any
of
the
the
the
the
vetting
team.
E
E
So
funds
are
to
be
expended
on
Kankakee
County
residents
only
so
we
actually
did
think
about
service
area.
You'll
see
some
ones
that
go
into
other
counties.
Well,
they
can't
spend
the
money
on
like
with
KCC,
we'll
talk
about
it.
It's
for
Kankakee,
County
residents,
okay,
it's
not
for
Iroquois
or
anybody
else
coming
in
here-
we're
not
going
to
on
scholarships
because
they
have
their
own
Arbor
monies.
They
can
do
so
and
I
hope
they
do.
Frankly,
they
can
contribute
in
the
same
manner
so
and
they're
subject
to
all
reporting
requirements.
E
E
Is
there
any
questions
about
the
program?
It's
something
they've
been
doing,
they're
going
to
expand
it,
and
it's
they've
shown
success
in
the
past.
So
I
do
want
to
speak
to
each
one
of
these,
because
it's
important
because
at
some
time
we're
going
to
see
a
request,
that's
going
to
be
denied
and
we
need
to
you
know,
explain
that
how
it
did
not
meet
the
standard
that
possibility
exists.
So
if
there
are
any
questions
about
this,
please
ask
them.
E
E
K
K
Let's
see,
Eastside
junior
football
has
been
in
existence
since
the
60s.
They
have
a
targeted
population
of
300
kids.
You
may
recall
here
in
the
past
couple
months,
we
honored
them
for
their
activities
down
in
I.
Think
Tampa
Florida
I've
been
involved
with
this
as
a
booster
for
some
period
of
time,
going
back
to
the
early
70s
and
having
been
a
board
member.
Additionally
Reverend,
okay,
the
food
pantry,
a
new
vision,
they're
involved
with
the
food
pantry
as
well
as
some
counseling
services
as
well
too.
K
They
also
do
a
podcast
weekly.
This
particular
proposal
has
been
thoroughly
vetted.
We
had
those
individuals
to
come
in
last
Friday
and
any
and
all
questions
that
we
had
were
posed
some
modifications
regarding
some
things
we
like
to
do
in
terms
of
expanding
the
Rehab
Services
and
some
other
stuff,
but
but
primarily
some
of
the
stuff
we're
going
to
approve
today.
Other
stuff
will
be
approved
at
a
later
date,
but
I
just
want
to
mention
some
of
those
things
before
the
chairman
articulated
his
comments
and.
E
I
apologize
it's
in
the
packet,
but
it
was
out
of
place
for
being
the
next
one.
So
I'll
just
read
off
the
tablet,
even
though
it
isn't
here.
The
evaluation
team
recommends
partial
approval
for
the
following:
it's
partial,
because
there's
still
more
we're
talking
to
them
about
fifteen
thousand
dollars
direct
to
naac
up
front,
which
is
not
reimbursement.
It's
up
front
for
their
youth
support.
Pro
and
development
program
explained
in
detail
in
the
packet.
E
Fifty
one
thousand
six
hundred
dollars
for
New
Vision
food
pantry,
either
through
voucher
program
or
reimbursement.
I
would
like
to
change
that,
because
I
have
since
spoken
with
Northern
Illinois
food
bank.
They
are
not
able
to.
We
had
discussed
potentially
having
them
be
the
voucher
holder.
We
just
pay
them
and
then
they
give
you
know
with
vouchers,
and
they
have
no
way
to
track.
All
of
that.
E
So
we
can't
use
Northern,
LA
Food
Bank
food
bank
for
our
purposes,
or
else
it
would
just
we'd
give
them
a
chunk
of
money
to
go
to
all
their
recipients.
That
work
with
Northern,
Illinois
food
bank
and
I
really
said.
That's
not.
We
can't
document
that,
just
like
you
couldn't
document
it
so,
unfortunately,
so
we're
I'm
going
to
change
that
to
make
the
recommendation
for
upright
because
and
again
we'll
give
them
pieces.
You
know.
So
it's
not
like
the
whole
56
000
it'll
be
like
a
monthly
type
or
a
semi-annual
draw.
E
We
have
to
have
the
documentation,
though,
so
you
can
rest
assured
that
if
the
money
is
misspent,
they've
agreed
not
they
specifically,
but
in
general
people
will
have
to
sign
off
on.
They
have
to
pay
it
back.
Okay,
so
we
do
have
an
audit
Trail
and
that
that's
not
towards
New
Vision.
That's
just
in
general
I
want
to
make
sure
everybody
knows
that

500,
each
in
mortgage
or
rental
assistance
for
those
with
documented
need
by
New,
Vision
and
or
Morningstar.
E
So
total
of
fifteen
thousand
dollars
there
between
the
two
twenty
thousand
dollars
direct
East
Side
football
for
youth
programming
in
advance.
All
funds
must
be
expended
by
24
and
subject
to
all
of
our
guidelines.
There's
a
housing
portion
of
the
application,
that's
being
evaluated
further,
so
I
wanted
that
to
be
transparent
as
well.
There
is
a
scrivener's
error.
I
left
rental
assistance
off
of
the
agenda.
This
was
a
whirlwind
on
Friday,
so
I
just
wanted
to
mention.
When
we
approve
it,
the
rental
assistance
should
have
been
on
the
agenda.
E
A
A
E
Right
sure,
now
next
one
was
Merchant,
Street
I
believe
Art
Gallery.
It
was
for
Workforce
training.
Does
anybody
want
to
kind
of
give
the
general
gist
of
what
they're
looking
to
do
with
outside
of
the
purse
program?
Or
do
you
want
me
to
do
that
I'm
opening
up?
What
do
you
guys
want
to
do?
Miss
Turner.
G
G
So
what
they're
looking
for
is
opportunities
to
provide
at-risk
training
or
on-the-job
training
for
those
residents
of
the
county
to
move
into
a
workable
position
later
in
life,
so
they're
looking
to
offer
who
are
they're
looking
to
do
it
through
working
in
the
in
the
gallery?
Cash
handling,
things
on
hand
working
with
Community
face-to-face
Community
Partners
through
their
art
and
selling
their
art.
So.
K
K
E
And
we
always
leaned
on
the
the
wow,
the
notice
of
funding
opportunity
that
we
sent
out
the
you
know.
We
always
use
that
as
The
Benchmark
is.
Is
this
what
we
asked
for
and
is
this
furthering
something
that
exists?
You
know,
so
we
always
went
back
and
touched
that
initial
point
of.
Why
are
we
doing
this
and
what
are
our
guidelines?
E
So
it's
57
736
dollars
to
Merchant
Street
Art
Gallery
up
front
for
supplies
necessary
to
execute
the
specialty
job
skills,
training
program
for
teens
and
adults
with
autism
and
a
thousand
and
forty
dollars
on
reimbursement
for
the
job
trainer
instruction
court
or
contractor
two
thousand
and
eighty
dollars
on
reimbursement
for
the
3D
design
and
printing
instructor
again
expend
it
get
it
back
from
us.
But
you
we
we're
funding
the
supplies
up
front
to
actually
execute.
This
have
to
be
extended
extended
by
2024,
as
stated
in
the
packet
all
of
our
guidelines.
E
They,
you
know
just
like
we
everything
else
and
the
funding
is
only
for
Yankee
County
residents
utilizing
the
program
and
there
is
a
client
staffed
business
proposal
associated
with
this.
That
is
under
further
review.
So
we're
going
to
keep
working
on
that
to
see
if
you
know
the
skills
training
that
they're
trying
to
offer
those
with
those
that
are
on
the
Spectrum.
E
You
know
it's
just
a
different
skill
set
loud
noises
aren't
good.
You
know
you
can't.
You
know,
there's
a
lot
of
things
that
you
have
to
do
different
and
so
they're
working
on
a
business
where
people
can
actually
work.
I
love
the
idea,
but
there's
more
to
come
on
that.
So
that's
that's!
Not
the
explanation
that
I
have.
E
A
E
The
next
one
is
kccsi
for
their
Housing
Voucher
Program.
The
valuation
team
recommends
a
partial
approval
again,
there's
something
that
is
still
under
discussion,
some
things:
ninety
nine
thousand
nine
hundred
and
ninety
nine
dollars
the
reason
that
I
made.
That
is
because
it's
a
three-year
funding
and
it's
nice
to
be
divisible
by
three
so
rather
than
doing
rounding,
so
it
would
be
payable
in
in
advance
in
three
equal
tranches
of
thirty
three
thousand
three
hundred
thirty
three
dollars
so
we're
just
not
giving
all
three
years
of
once.
E
Every
year
it
will
be
dispersed
in
thirds.
It
runs
until
26,
12,
31
26
limited
to
individuals
living
in
Kankakee,
County
or
homeless
in
Kankakee
County.
At
the
time
of
this
funding,
this
is
an
important
part,
hardship
applications
for
ineligible
applicants
shall
be
heard
by
kccsi
board
I.E
transient
homeless,
with
no
local
connections
and
this
position
reported
to
the
Kankakee
County
Board
as
part
of
regular
reporting
requirements.
All
funds
must
be
expended
by
the
end
of
26,
subject
to
guidelines
and
there's
still
another
portion
on
the
request.
E
The
reason
that
I
suggested
that
we
add
that
their
board
approve
it.
If
they're
going
to
spend
the
money,
because
we
do
see
homeless
here
that
aren't
from
the
area,
we
don't
want
to
ignore
them,
but
I
would
like
them
to
be
able
to
tell
us
where
people
are
coming
from
I
see
some
possibilities.
If
we
start
enhancing
a
lot
of
these
programs,
people
talk,
you
know,
even
if
you
don't
have
a
phone
or
a
home,
you
have
a
phone.
If
we
become
a
destination,
I
would
want
to
know
it.
E
Okay,
because
as
we
beef
up
these
services
and
we're
hearing
requests
from
fortitude
and
everybody
else,
we
want
to
be
Humane.
We
want
to
do
the
right
thing,
but
we
also
don't
want
to
encourage
that
type
of
situation
to
be
compounded
here
locally.
Does
that
make
sense,
and
so
at
least
to
have
the
mechanism
for
reporting?
So
we
can
gather.
Is
this
actually
creating
the
opposite
of
what
we
want
to
have
happen
and
I
think
we
should
look
at
that
for
everybody
else
that
we
tend
to
fund
in
that
Arena?
E
E
H
Well,
because,
like
you're
talking
about
the
homeless,
then
we're
talking
about
mental
health
and
all
that
stuff
and
they
find
out.
You
got
everything
down
here:
riding
the
bus
down
here
and
Everybody,
taking
all
the
money
from
everybody
that
lives
here.
So
we
have
to
kind
of
look
at
that
when
we
look
at
these
things,
we
give
out
this
kind
of
money.
A
E
When,
okay,
all
right,
thank
you
yeah,
so
I
tried
to
mirror
exactly
what
they
were
asking
for
and
in
one
case
we
suggested
to
the
application
applicant.
We
need
you
to
have
another
year,
so
we
can
measure
this.
You
know
it
was
a
more
excellent
way.
We
said
you
have
history
with
this
program,
you're
asking
for
one
year,
can
we
we
really
need
you
to
have
two
years,
so
we
can
start
to
measure,
because
what
do
we
want
to
do?
E
E
Kankakee
County
CEO-
this
was
pretty
much.
The
same
recommends
approval
of
twenty
thousand
dollars.
The
team
does
in
disbursement
upon
approval
of
the
full
board
direct
to
the
CEO
program
and
I
believe
that's
the
Kankakee
Regional
Chamber
of
Commerce
there.
This
came
in
as
an
applicant
for
the
Community
Foundation
and
we're
gonna.
We
don't.
E
We
have
Grant
managers
we're
paying
Rincon
to
manage
these
grants,
we're
not
going
to
pay
two
people
to
manage
grants.
So
we
kind
of
explain
that
so
this
would
be
direct
to
whoever
is
running
that
program
and
I
believe
that
is
the
Chamber
of
Commerce.
So
it's
whoever
is
the
intake
point
of
that
situation.
E
Further.
The
funding
is
for
Kankakee
County
residents.
Only
and
it's
all
awarded
funds
are
subject
to
the
federal
procurement
reporting
guidelines
and
I
believe
it
was
Mr
Hunter
who
reached
out
and
oh,
it
might
have
been
Amber
that
talked
to
the
chamber,
and
we
wanted
to
see
some
diverse
additions
to
their
Board
of
the
CEO
program,
very
amenable
to
that.
Obviously
so
they're
in
that
process,
they've
identified
individuals
to
kind
of
balance.
The
scales,
if
you
will
on
representation
on
that
board,
so
know
that
we
did
that
as
well.
G
E
This
is
a
a
long,
long
successful
program
in
other
areas.
It's
just
new
here,
but
it's
basically
a
youth
program
to
get
them
into
the
understanding
what
entrepreneurship
is
and
and
what
it
takes
in
those
type
of
skill
sets.
So
I
love
it.
It's
got
a
lot
of
different
school
districts.
So
if
there's
any
questions,
I
mean,
hopefully
the
packet
answers.
Those
that's
why
we
send
it
out
and
asked
you
last
year
beforehand,
but.
G
E
B
E
We
recommend
approval
of
thirty
thousand
dollars
for
the
food
bank
request.
We
do
not
recommend
payment
of
utilities
due
to
the
inability
to
separate
the
church
and
food
bank
use
per
that
Supreme
Court
U.S
Supreme
Court
ruling
that
we've
discussed
in
the
past
funding
may
come
in
the
form
of
voucher
reimbursable.
Obviously,
we're
gonna
we're
switching
that
to
pay
it
up
front
for
these
folks
as
they
need
it.
All
funds
must
be
expended
by
2026
and
are
intended
for
Kankakee
County
residents.
Only.
K
A
Approved
chair,
a
motion
to
approve,
as
reflected
in
the
packet
Mr
Hunter
second,
by
Mr
Donald,
all
in
favor,
say
aye
aye,
aye
opposed
motion
carries
next
up,
we'll
go
ahead
and
combine
and
approve.
All
of
these
that
we
just
went
ahead
and
approved,
can
I
have
a
motion
to
combine
and
approve
Mr
Feather
Lane
second
by
Mr
Donald.
A
E
A
A
A
M
M
Before
we
jump
into
all
the
business-
and
we
got
a
lot
to
cover
I
wanna
for
the
award
I
want
to
thank
all
the
Departments
that
Supply
information
to
us
for
the
stats
section
in
the
back
of
the
award
back
to
the
financial
report.
That
gets
judged
to
be
the
for
the
award
and
also
I
brought
Chris
with
me.
M
Chris
Kerner,
the
assistant
Finance
director,
but
with
all
the
work
that
we
have,
he
had
to
go
back
to
work
getting
back
down
to
the
office,
but
to
acknowledge
right
now.
It's
Chris
and
I.
It's
just
and
Jolene
who's,
part-time
Dublin,
our
other
third
full-time.
He
took
a
job
with
onu
and
his
very
slim,
but
still
helping
us
on
a
part-time
basis,
but
Chris
and
I
without
Chris.
Everything
would
stop
so
I.
A
M
Just
be
nice,
if
we,
if
we
make
a
mistake
right
so
with
the
lion,
but
we
we
check
and
double
check.
We
have
systems
in
place
to
do
that
as
well,
but
so
to
move
on.
I
won't
spend
a
lot
of
time
with
the
regular
activity.
Unless
there's
a
question,
you
know
the
normal
stuff,
so
there
was
a
slight
change
in
sales
tax,
but
that
can
happen
so
we'll
I'm
not
sure
that
it's
a
trend
yet,
but
we'll
just
you
know,
keep
an
eye
on
it.
M
A
M
M
M
Yeah
everything
still
looks
good
through
July
I
know.
Someone
has
any
questions
about,
spend
much
time
on
that.
So
there's
not
a
lot
of
not
a
lot
of
concern
right
now,
along
those
lines,
so
just
keeping
everybody
updated
on
the
averages
and
the
flows
as
they're
as
they're
happening
during
this
time
without
property
tax.
M
A
M
E
June
this-
this
is
what's
problematic
about
this.
This
isn't
the
auditor
calling
balls
and
Strikes
him.
It's
him
disagreeing
that
we
need
an
in
a
lobbyist
which
is
not
even
anything
close
to
his
job
nope.
It's
it's
his
opinion.
It's
not
his
job.
The
invoice
matches
the
amount
of
money,
which
is
the
the
resolution
with
us
agreeing
to
pay
this
company
to
do
this
for
us,
so
we
need
approval
all
the
way
through
June
and
it's
just
another
example
of
the
dereliction
of
Duty
going
on
in
the
auditor's
office
motion.
E
So
the
reason
I'm
bringing
it
to
committee
is
is
we're
going
to
submit
the
claim
and
I
already
know
he's
going
to
deny
it
so
just
know
that
I
booked
the
hotel
to
testify
in
front
of
the
Illinois
Senate
subcommittee
on
our
bill
on
judicial
fees.
So
I
went
down
there,
there's
no
food,
there's
nothing
else,
just
mileage
in
the
hotel,
but
he'll
kick
it
back
because
he's
not
signing
anything
that
has
my
name
on
it
very.
A
M
M
You've
had
some
information
in
your
packet,
but
this
is
some
of
the
best
news
that
I've
ever
had
the
pleasure
of
being
able
to
communicate
so
I
just
want
to
make
sure
start
off
and
congratulate
chairman
wheeler,
this
finance
committee,
the
full
board
Sheriff
Downey
in
his
Department,
all
the
elected
officials,
all
the
appointed
officials,
all
the
employees,
for
all
the
hard
work
and
getting
us.
We
are
now
at
the
highest
fund
balance
in
County
history
and
for
achieving
a
goal
set
back
by
the
board,
the
full
board
in
2013..
M
That
goal
was
to
achieve
a
20
fund
balance
in
the
general
fund
and
as
of
the
end
of
FY
20
22.
The
draft
ending
fund
balance
for
the
general
fund
is
now
at
24,
so
we
have
exceeded,
accomplished
and
exceeded
that,
and
by
comparison
a
year
ago,
at
the
end
of
FY
21,
we
were
sitting
at
10
percent,
so
very
important,
very
large
jump.
Why
is
this
important
is
often
referred
to?
M
A
fund
balance
can
refer
to
as
a
rainy
day
fund
and
it's
essential
to
for
the
services
we
provide
to
the
public
to
be
properly
sustained
and
if
we
have
to
weather
another
storm
during
an
unexpected
economic
fluctuation,
we
are
now
in
financial
position
to
be
able
to
effectively
do
that
if
needed.
So
that
is
very
important
and
congratulations.
M
It's
it's
something.
I
hope
that
I'd
be
able
to
share,
at
least
by
the
time,
I
retired,
so
we've
got
their
10
to
12
years
earlier,
but
it's
so
important.
Nonetheless,
because
of
being
able
to
sustain
operations,
you
know
in
in
the
case
of
an
economic
downturn,
so
I'll
be
happy
to
explain
anything
else
in
detail,
but
I
wanted
to
make
sure
you
know.
We
explained
that
at
up
front
so.
A
E
Chairman,
thank
you.
Mr
chairman,
the
once
once
you're
able
to
weather
that
storm.
There's
no
need
for
this
public
body.
In
my
opinion,
to
keep
making
major
jumps
in
our
fund
balance.
I
think
we
have
to
really
start
talking
about.
Like
we
did
last
year
is
statement,
reducing
the
amount
taxpayers
have
to
send
us
to
sustain
the
level
that
we're
at.
Let's
just
keep
our
fund
balance
the
same
way.
It
is.
E
We
don't
need
to
take
Leaps
and
Bounds
anymore,
because
there's
something
to
be
said
for
having
too
much
money
in
the
government's
hand,
so
I
think
we
should
have
that
discussion
and
bring
it
back
without
risking
our
ability
to
react
to
a
a
poor
economy
which
we
see
coming
so
I'm
Steve
I'm,
not
getting
crazy
Steve.
You
don't
worry
about
it.
E
We're
not
going
to
give
everything
away,
but
what
I
do
think
is
we
need
to
take
our
foot
off
what
little
we're
asking
from
the
public
and
actually
maybe
a
big
taxes
in
a
much
more
aggressive
fashion,
we'll
still
Levy,
but
I
think
we
need
to
do
some
abatements,
so
people
don't
have
to
pay
that.
That's
just
my
opinion
and
I'll
put
it
to
the
committee
when
the
time
comes.
N
A
K
M
E
Which
is
being
supported
by
fines
and
fees
and
not
property
taxes,
so
in
effect
we
will
have
eliminated
virtually
All
County
debt.
We
didn't,
we,
our
pensions
are
funded.
We
didn't
have
to
go
out
and
borrow
money
to
pay
off
a
pension
debt
and
Trade
One
debt
for
another,
like
other
municipalities,
have
done.
We
actually
address
it
on
the
front
end
yeah.
M
And,
and
not
to
disagree
with
anything
that
was
just
said
just
to
put
in
perspective
that
extra
four
percent,
if
we,
if
the
goal
is
to
stay
at
around
20,
which
is
recommended
by
the
government
finance
office,
Association
to
be
able
to
sustain
you
know
going
through,
and
it's
a
percentage
of
it
of
your
expense
levels
too,
by
the
way
that
amount
that
four
percent
addition
is
about.
380
000,
ish,
roughly
well,
health
insurance
can
take
that
up
the
next
time
the
renewal
comes
through
so
yeah.
M
Not
it's
not
a
huge
amount
of
money.
You
know
I
mean
it
sounds
like
a
lot
of
money,
but
in
the
scope
of
what
we
do
and
what
can
change
in
in
one
year.
Besides,
you
know,
salary
changes
and
other
things
that
that
come
upon
us.
You
know
it's,
it's
not
we're
not
like.
We
didn't
knock
it.
We
knocked
it
out
of
the
ballpark
to
get
to
this
spot,
but
we're
not
so
far
out
that
you
know
I
mean
that
it's
it's
it's
so
much
excess
that
there
it'll
be
eating
up.
A
H
Mr
featherwin
a
lot
of
towns
in
a
lot
of
counties
and
things
are
making
things
look
good
by
pinching
their
numbers
moving
over
their
funds
and
things
covering
other
things.
We're
not
doing
that,
we're
also
being
very
careful
not
to
expenditure
or
anything.
That's
going
to
expense
us
at
a
later
time.
A
A
M
Sheet
and
expense
sheet,
specifically
for
the
general
fund.
You
know
we
we
budgeted
conservatively
and
at
least
the
time
when
the
flight
22
budget
was
created.
You
know
it
looked
like
the
the
head
count
of
the
bed.
Rental
program
was
going
to
potentially
go
down,
not
only
with
the
ice.
It
turned
around
and
actually
went
up
as
one
example
and
obviously
when
there's
a
higher
head
count,
there's
more
expense
there.
M
So
these
are
needed
adjustments
because
of
all
the
changes
that
we
did
see
throughout
the
course
of
FY
22
for
this,
and
then
it
would
be
reflected
in
the
final
report.
If
the
board
wants
to
go
ahead
and
amend
to
match
up
to
all
the
activity
that
took
place,
it
does
take
two-thirds
of
the
boat
by
the
full
board
to
mend
the
original
budget.
B
M
M
They
are
new
and
that's
why
they're
on
there,
the
other
are
just
again
activity
in
the
various
areas
and
then
the
health
department
did
send
us
their
board
during
the
course
of
the
year.
Did
a
budget
amendment
during
the
course
of
the
year
so
we're
catching
up
because
they
also
reported
under
our
umbrella.
If
you
will
so
that's
just
a
short
update.
If
there's
any
questions
there
for
the
special
folks.
M
We
did
ask
for
a
business
plan
and
other
proof
of
business
activities,
as
we
have
for
all
that
have
fallen
into
the
startup
categories.
They
did
provide
additional
information.
It
is
proprietary
part
of
what
was
provided
was
actual
bank
account
information,
showing
revenue
and
expense
utilities
and
rents,
and
other
things
like
that
outlined.
M
That
is
not
including
your
package
because
they
didn't
want
to
make
it
a
public
document
because
of
it
being
proprietary,
but
I
can
attest
that
I
did
receive
that
and
then
the
other
information
that
is
attached
that
they
provided
would
recommend.
They
fall
underneath
because
they're
within
the
city
limits
of
5000
and
it
would
be
under
reimbursement
because
they're
startup
for
eligible
equipment
or
supplies
committee
for
the
committee's
consideration.
A
Any
discussion
or
comments
from
the
committee,
if
not
I'll,
take
a
vote
to
or
a
motion
to
approve
five
thousand
dollars
reimbursement
only
motion
by
Mr
Hunter,
second,
by
Miss
Weber,
all
in
favor,
say
aye.
All
right
opposed
motion
carries
next
up:
Manteno
Bourbonnais
drainage,
District,
number,
six.
M
For
their
requests,
three
thousand
they
fall
under
the
Cap
Fund
of
the
20
000
uncovered
government
reimbursement
only
there's
a
narrative
there.
As
far
as
what
they're
running
into
with
the
flooding
Falcon
yeah
with
what's
going
on
there
and
then
an
estimate,
I
believe
I
included
the
estimate
yeah
over
a
million
dollars
potential
to
fix
the
situation
that
they
have
in
front
of
them.
So
it's
they
are
eligible
for
twenty
thousand
on
the
reimbursement
basis.
M
Moments:
Park
District,
so
we
the
previous
fundings
or
approvals.
At
this
point
we
have
funded
ten
thousand
last
month.
We
did
an
approval
for
additional
10
000
and
if
we
recall
after
further
communication
with
the
park
district,
we
realized
that
that
20
000
for
non-cover
government
was
the
first
our
first
bucket.
M
If
you
will
the
1920
and
then
we
also
did
a
2021
funding
bucket
for
non-cover
government,
so
the
second
20
would
fall
underneath
the
second
funding
bucket
to
continue
and
to
help
with
their
Ada
restroom
upgrade
on
a
reimbursement
only
category.
So
it
falls
underneath
the
original
outline
that
the
board
did
originally
and
it
for
the
continuation
to
help
with
the
with
the
Ada
upgrades
to
the
restrooms.
A
J
M
Yeah,
so
the
next
two
are
our
projects
that
were
approved
for
a
specific
dollar
amount,
with
the
the
information
that
was
provided
and
inflation
has
caught
up
to
both
of
them.
Now
that
they're
at
the
point
of
being
completed,
so
both
of
these
organizations
have
asked
us
for
consideration
for
the
additional
amount.
M
A
M
A
M
So,
under
the
Lost
Revenue
category,
this
is
cooling
system
replacement,
Public,
Safety,
I.T
room.
It
was
a
total
of
seventeen
thousand
six
hundred
fifty
dollars
more
likely.
This
probably
got
discussed
in
building
ground
committee,
but
to
officially
get
the
arpa
resolution
we
bring
in
it
here.
For
that
purpose,.
A
E
It
has
to
be
made
a
certain
way.
Can
I
explain
this
one
okay,
these
are.
These
were
separate
projects
that
originally
they
set
in
the
total
for
all
the
projects,
which
is
wasn't
acceptable.
We
have
to
approve
these
separately,
so
the
the
Motions
will
be
two
of
them.
You
can
make
to
the
motion
to
combine
and
approve
these
it'll,
be
twenty
one
thousand
four
hundred
sixty
dollars
total
for
the
basement.
That's
the
new
construction
part
of
this,
and
then
so
that
would
be
one
of
the
motions
and
then
the
upstairs
portion
of
it.
E
E
H
M
This
is
yeah
the
new
Tyler
system
the
board
has
approves.
There
was
a
resolution
to
prove
it
to
accept
and
and
choose
Tyler
Technologies.
However,
there's
not
a
resolution
to
identify
the
funding
source
for
arpa,
so
this
is
for
the
arpa
funds
so
that
we
have
this
for
the
treasury
to
match
up
and
bless
and
get
approval
for
spending
arpa
monies
for
this
project
under
lost
Revenue
and
not
to
exceed
3.2
million
dollars,
as
was
the
original
resolution
when
it
was
accepted.
M
She
said
like
Court
study.
This
is
similar.
The
board
approved
to
do
this
in
a
separate
resolution
with
with
a
bunch
of
projects
for
white
and
company.
However,
as
we
broke
out
the
projects,
some
of
these
did
not
have
funding
sources,
so
this
is
to
identify
the
funding
source
which
would
be
lost
Revenue
our
lost
revenue
for
twenty
eight
thousand
four
hundred
dollars.
E
E
So
now
we're
going
to
have
instead
of
nine
judges
and
nine
courtrooms
they're
going
to
give
us
another
judge,
so
we'll
have
10
judges
in
nine
courtrooms,
which
is
a
problem
as
well,
so
it
just
compounds
the
other
things
that
we're
seeing
that's
another
reason
we're
talking
about
this
I
haven't
seen
many
people
report
on
that,
so
there'll
be
another
judge
appointed.
You
know
here
locally.
A
N
E
A
M
A
voice-
oh
that's,
a
separate,
it's
a
separate
dollar
amount
and
a
separate
project.
So
I,
okay,
it's
separate,
but
just
make
sure
we
yeah
identify
it.
So
the
last
one
was
the
the
County
government
future
plan
concept
with
white
and
Company
not
to
exceed
32
600
same
situation,
different
project,
different
dollar
amount.
A
J
E
O
Chairman
and
thank
you
for
for
having
me
here,
I
apologize,
I
wasn't
available
for
for
PCA
day
I
was
in
Springfield
at
a
function
looking
for
some
more
more
Grand
funds.
So
this
is
the
thing
we
do
every
year
and
and
I
think
the
the
well
one
thing
we'd
like
to
call
to
your
attention
is
the
way
that
we
write.
O
O
We
usually
do
about
28
000
rides
a
year,
sorry
trips,
a
year
for
about
seven
hundred
thousand
dollars,
that's
kind
of
where
we
where
we
operate,
but
this
allows
us
to
maximize
both
our
our
5311,
which
is
the
the
Federal
Highway
or
sorry,
the
federal
trans
Administration
funds,
the
downstate
operating
assistance
program,
which
is
a
state
of
Illinois
funds,
and
then
some
other
kind
of
through
cares
and
out
of
covid
we've
gotten
some
additional
funds
for
the
state.
So
this
kind
of
lumps
everything
into
a
single
contract
for
for
this.
O
This
motion,
I,
guess:
there's,
there's
a
couple
things:
this
purchase
of
service
agreement
and
lease
agreement,
so
we
own
13
buses
as
a
county
that
we
then
lease
back
as
a
pass-through
just
to
show
bus
to
operate
our
system.
All
of
that
all
you
know.
The
reason
there's
like
70
80
Pages
here
is
because
all
of
this
becomes
our
application.
So
when
we
apply
to
the
state,
it's
not
just
for
Rural
Transit,
say
hey.
O
We
want
to
do
rural
Transit,
we
say
and
we
have
a
provider
and
we
have
our
lease
in
place,
so
they
can
take
all
that
documentation
at
once.
So
these
these
four
documents
kind
of
work,
all
together,
along
with
the
assurances
pages
that
get
reviewed
by
State
steering's
office
for
for
legal
sign
off
and
then
chairman
wheeler
executes
the
documents
there
is
a
hearing
set
for
March
10th,
where
we
will
be
taking
comment
from
the
public
in
the
afternoon.
O
So
we'll
we'll
that's
run
in
the
paper
is
a
formal
advertisement,
but
it's
something
that
we're
trying
to
get
the
information
out
about
rural
Transit.
We
like
to
hear
from
people
we
like
to
hear
from
you
we
like
to
hear
from
your
constituents
about
where
they
like
see
Transit
what
they
like
to
see
within
our
system
so
and
any
comment
you
have
for
us.
We
certainly
want
to
hear
you
know.
O
I
think
it's
two
o'clock
in
the
afternoon,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
the
one
thing
I
did
want
to
mention.
Mr
chairman
is
there
every
year
within
our
budget
we
put
thirty
thousand
dollars
of
Kankakee
County
funds
to
rural
Transit,
and
so,
if
any
motion
is
is
made
by
this
group,
I
believe
a
a
roll
call
vote
would
be
in
order.
So
Mr.
O
I
will
grab
it
from
you
after
the
meeting
I'll.
Send
him
a
note
to
to
make
sure
every
everybody's
got
it
that
needs
it
so
and
I'm
gonna
have
to
give
it
to
you
after
the
meeting.
I
can't
find
it
right
now.
My
apologies,
it
is.
It
is
the
10th
and
I'll
make
sure
before
the
meeting's
out
to
get
it
to
you.
A
I
just
noticed
I
skipped
over
the
auditor's
office,
but
there's
nobody
here,
but
I
just
wanted
to
let
the
committee
know
that
I
went
back
and
I
saw
that
it's
been
1069
days
since
the
auditor
has
been
in
front
of
this
committee.
That
equates
out
to
35
months
since
there
has
been
anything
on
this
agenda
for
the
auditor.
