Description
Highways & Buildings Committee Meeting 11/16/2017 9:00 AM
B
C
A
I,
don't
have
any
public
comments
at
all.
I
see
no
public
comments.
We're
gonna
need
a
motion
to
amend
the
agenda.
Brian
has
an
emergency.
He
needs
to
go
to
from
last
night
and
we
need
to
move
him
ahead
of
highways
so
which
one
was
first
Miss
Peters
and
then
Jim.
Mr.
Trippe,
all
in
favor,
say
aye
opposed.
Okay,
Brian
all.
D
Right
good
morning,
everybody
we'll
start
off
with
facility
dude
report.
There's
177
work
orders.
Last
month
those
numbers
are
starting
to
increase.
As
we
add
people
into
the
listing
computer
system
financial
report,
we
spent
twenty
two
thousand
seven
hundred
eighty
six
dollars
and
sixty-five
cents.
That's
about
it.
The
5200
was
for
coney
elevators
quarterly
payment.
So
that's
why
you
see
this
increase
and
then
we
paid
facility
dude
as
well,
for
our
next
year's
commitment
to
them
at
$3,300.
D
D
We're
getting
caught
up
right
now,
with
back
flows,
back
flows
in
every
building
have
to
be
inspected
once
a
year,
aqua
Illinois
lost
their
computer
system
a
while
back
in
Pennsylvania
dropped
everybody
out
of
the
system.
Fortunately,
we
had
all
of
our
documentation.
We
supplied
them
with
that
I
have
about
half
of
those
back
flows
and
have
contacted
precision
piping
to
move
forward
with
that.
We
still
are
waiting
on
some
and
they're
gonna,
get
them
to
us
so
that
that
is
underway.
D
I
have
here
some
pictures
that
were
taken
of
the
roof
I'd
like
to
pass
this
around
I
didn't
make
him
a
bunch
of
copies.
This
is
the
roof
of
the
second
floor.
Right
out
here.
The
roof
was
put
on
in
1997.
We
had
some
major
leaks
in
these
last
big
rains.
I've
had
langley's
come
out,
make
some
patches
and
do
some
things.
This
is
something
that
we're
gonna
have
to
consider
changing
out
this
roofs
going
on
21
years
old,
it's
starting
to
pull
away
from
the
flashing.
D
If
you
look
out
the
window
and
look
across
that
second-floor
roof
you'll
see
it
it's
ballooned
away
from
the
wall.
So
it's
pulling
away,
it's
shrinking
all
the
things
that
happened
to
a
rubber
roof
after
about
20
or
24
years.
So
this
is
something
we're
gonna
have
to
consider
here
in
the
future.
As
long
as
we're
talking
about
roofs
about
six
months
ago,
I
brought
you
guys
the
base
of
the
dome
at
the
courthouse
needed
to
be
replaced.
D
It
went
into
full
blown
leak,
honest
busted,
through
into
the
court
room
300,
we
had
to
put
a
garbage
can
under
to
catch
the
water.
The
next
morning
we
came
in
had
language
come
in.
They
they
made
a
patch
that
roof
is
shot
around.
The
base
of
the
dome
I
want
someone
to
entertain
a
motion
to
go
to
bid
on
that
roof.
Peter.
D
D
Look
what
Long's
were
at
the
courthouse?
As
everyone
knows,
self
represented
litigants
computers
have
to
be
installed
in
the
courthouse
by
January
1st
we
went
out,
we
had
a
meeting
judge.
Albrecht
is
in
charge
of
this
met
with
Sandy
the
judges,
everybody
that
needed
to
be
met
with
we
had
a
meeting,
we
determined
a
location
go
to
being
in
room
209
to
the
second
floor.
We're
gonna
modify
the
counters
in
there.
We
had
counterfeiters
come
over
and
give
us
a
price
to
modify
those
thirty,
eight
hundred
and
seventy
three
dollars.
D
My
understanding
is
those
counters
are
going
to
be
paid
for
by
the
circuit
clerk's
office.
Now
what
we're
waiting
on
right
now?
This
has
been
sent
to
the
Attorney
General
for
their
approval,
as
we
have
to
do
with
everything
they're
right
now
and
we're
waiting
on
that
word
to
come
back.
I
believe
Meghan
said.
Probably
Tuesday
they'll
have
an
answer
back
for
us.
This
has
to
be
up
an
operational
on
January
1st
I
have
some
electrical
work,
that's
going
to
need
to
get
done
as
well
as
cabling
from
the
IT
department.
D
That
also
need
to
be
done.
So
we're
kind
of
in
a
catch-22:
let's
get
this
thing
going
in
one
way
or
the
other.
So
as
soon
as
I
hear
on
Tuesday,
we
can
move
forward
I'll
order,
these
counters
and
we'll
get
this
thing
rolling.
We
have
to
have
this
ready
to
go
so
I'm
moving
forward
with
that
signage
inside
and
outside
that
we
were
non-compliant
with
all
the
outside
signage
is
now
completed
for
handicap
parking
I
have
all
the
rest
of
the
signage
for
inside
the
courthouse
being
made
as
we
speak.
D
We
just
received
a
request
from
these
and
I
honestly,
don't
know
who
these
who
these
people
are,
but
it's
the
state
Bicentennial
flag-raising
they
contacted
mr.
wheeler
about
this.
They
wanted
know
if
we'd
be
a
part
of
this.
All
the
counties
in
the
state
of
Illinois
are
going
to
do
this
on
December.
The
fourth
I
believe
is
the
date
we
are
going
to
raise
the
Bicentennial
flag
at
the
courthouse.
The
Chamber
of
Commerce
and
Anandi's
actually
handle
on
all
this
I'm
gonna
have
set
up
podium,
sound
system
and
chairs
for
the
dignitaries.
D
E
D
I
believe
it's
up
December
4th
and
you
should
all
be
get
an
email
here.
Charlotte
they
were,
they
were
working,
the
bugs
out
of
who's,
gonna,
be
doing
what
the
chamber
and
and
the
economic
lights
and
all
those
things.
So
as
soon
as
they
get
that
all
worked
out,
they'll
be
notifying
everyone.
The
annex
building.
We
have
a
camera
system
getting
ready
to
go
in
they're
being
paid
for
by
probation
we've
gone
through
all
the
steps
that
we
need
to
do
now,
we're
waiting
on
a
couple
of
switches
and
we'll
get
that
done.
D
Pneumatic
controls
at
the
old
jail
I'm
still
having
huge
problems
with
these
pneumatics
we're
trying
to
work
the
bugs
out
of
this,
the
building's
50
years
old,
60
years
old.
It's
really
difficult
trying
to
keep
this
thing
running
it's
getting
more
and
more
and
more
difficult.
So
just
so,
you're
aware
I'm
spending
an
awful
lot
of
money
with
it
outside
contractors
coming
in
here.
Trying
to
keep
this
place
running
so
I
mean
we're
doing
the
best
we
can
with
this.
D
The
parking
lot
at
the
old
jail
was
completed.
Thank
you
highway
department
for
the
tremendous
job
they
did
over
there.
They
pulled
this
thing
off.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
mark
for
all
you
guys
did
there.
Thank
you
boiler.
Inspectors,
hot
water
heaters
are
complete
over
there.
We
did
have
a
problem
with
the
annex
boiler.
It's
all
taken
care
of
it's
up
and
running
I
pass
along
the
paperwork
to
the
state
of
Illinois.
D
Yesterday
again
pneumatic
problems,
I
have
Fire
Department
inspections
coming
up
in
all
of
our
buildings,
all
the
sprinklers
and
all
the
buildings
fact
they're
doing
this
one
right
now,
as
we
speak
boilers
and
two
elevators
the
end
of
your
inspections,
my
manpower,
I'm
short,
a
mechanic
right
now.
He
went
on
leave
to
have
his
knee
replaced
so
with
the
vacations
and
that
I'm
I'm
down
to
about
seven
guys
in
eight
buildings
and,
worse
we're
struggling
to
keep
up.
We
are
really
really
struggling
to
keep
up,
but
me
included
I'm
trying
to
cover
so
many
bases.
D
A
D
Get
this
thing
rolling,
I'm
at
and
and
again
this
is
on
the
Sheriff's
Department
is
that
is
my
boss.
You
know
Mike
Downey
is
so
I
have
talked
to
them
about
it.
I
don't
know
what
you
guys
is
playing
is,
but
a
one-month
transition.
It's
not
going
to
get
it
get
anything
accomplished.
I'll
tell
you
that
right
now.
A
A
F
D
D
Don't
know
if
you
want
to
take
the
best
worker
in
the
field,
try
to
put
put
him
in
charge
of
the
department
and
I'm
not
trying
to
blow
him
out
of
there
at
all
by
any
means
because
he's
because
he
can
do
the
job,
but
we
certainly
need
him
in
the
field
way
more
than
we
need
them
in
the
office
and
again
I'm
not
trying
to
belong
if
they
pick
them,
I'd
be
happy
to
work
with
him.
Is
this?
That's
not
an
issue.
D
I
think
I
think
the
County
Board
Chairman
and
the
sheriff
need
to
get
together
and
decide
what
a
time
what
a
good
timeline
is
is
quite
honestly
at
now
I
would
say
now.
I
would
say
some
time,
but
by
January.
We
should
probably
have
someone
in
here
to
take
this
to
get
you
to
get
this
going,
because
all
the
I
have
eight
buildings.
There's
a
lot
of
little.
D
Any
secrecy's
that
are
gonna
be
gonna,
be
need
to
pass
along
to
keep
everything
operational,
but
these
would,
if
they
were
new
buildings,
I
wouldn't
I,
wouldn't
be
so
quick
to
say.
We
need
to
replace
me,
but
we
need
to
get
somebody
in
here
with
us
with
these
old
buildings
and
learn
the
secrets
that
I've
able
to
document.
D
Things
are
going
along,
we
are
short-staffed,
we
are,
we
are
doing
it
great
we're
falling
farther
and
telling
you
we're
falling
farther
and
farther
and
farther
behind,
as
time
goes
on,
not
having
the
sufficient
staff
here
and
I.
You
know:
I
I'm,
watching
other
departments
fill
theirs.
They're
staffing
roles
and
the
maintenance
department
has
been
for
two
years
now,
with
nine
guys.
I
have
nine
guys
in
eight
buildings.
It's.
A
F
I
Chairman,
thank
you.
I'm
late
to
the
committee,
and
mr.
Gadbois
has
done
an
outstanding
job.
I've
worked
with
him
over
the
years
and
the
county
was
very
wise
when
they
hired
a
guy
who
was
tired
of
the
trades.
The
one
to
stay
in
the
trades
and
I
am
confident
that
there
are
those
same
people
out
there
right.
C
G
You
allude
to
it,
but
you
don't
ask
so,
can
you
just
formally
ask
for
another,
employee
and
I
think
that
you
being
caught
up
in
July
and
not
chasing
your
tail
around
by
not
having
enough
staff
I,
think
a
lot
of
things
need
to
be
caught
up
and
you
need
to
have
time
to
be
a
to
train
someone
new.
So
you
definitely
need
a
new
employee
into
your
department.
So
he
formally
asked
for
that.
What
do
we
do
to
go
about
that?
Quite.
D
Honestly,
I
don't
have
time
to
do
one
thing
completely,
because
I'm
busy
running
around
looking
at
things
in
the
buildings
I
get
back
to
my
office
and
now
I'm,
starting
to
see
mistakes
in
the
claims
and
the
things
I'm
sending
up
to
the
Auditor.
So
something
always
gets
pushed
off.
If
you
will
in
it
but
office
staff
I
mean
this
I've
operated
this
office
for
two
years
without
in
the
office
help,
and
that's
been
that
that
right,
there
alone
processing
all
of
the
claims.
D
All
the
invoices
that
come
in,
all
that
has
to
go
out
to
Jerome
combs
to
be
processed,
so
I
meant
I'm
in
two
three
times
a
week
in
that
trying
to
stay
on
top
of
that
order
and
all
the
material
all
of
the
supplies
and
keeping
I
order,
all
the
supplies
for
the
entire
county
in
May,
10
and
building.
So
you
know,
I
have
to
stay
on
top
of
all
that,
as
well
as
make
sure
these
buildings
stay
functional,
you
know
so,
yes,
yes,
but
I
would
say.
D
C
Leer
Thank
You
mr.
chairman
at
criminal
justice,
chairman
Weaver,
was
responding
to
a
request
from
the
sheriff
and
terms
of
some
additional
people.
He
called
the
attention
to
the
criminal
justice
committee
that
we've
got
two
more
years
of
really
having
to
watch
our
budget
real
close
because
fiscal
year.
Nineteen
is
a
critical
year
for
the
county.
It
is
the
point
at
which
we
lose
and
based
on
all
information.
We
have
now
our
TWh
from
the
local
banks,
so
every
decision-
and
that
involves
finances-
needs
to
be
looked
at
closely.
C
With
that
perspective
in
mind,
they
need
that
many
departments
have
is
unquestionable
and
how
they
have
gotten
through
the
last
month's.
The
half
days
couple
years
here
is
just
amazing
that
they
deserve
so
much
recognition
for
the
hard
work.
It
would
be
nice
to
say
we're
at
a
point
where
we
can
provide
them
some
relief,
and
hopefully
we
can,
if
some
good
things
happen,
I
keep
hearing
in
terms
of
the
county's
economy.
Some
real
positive
potential
potential
does
not
put
cash
in
our
checkbook
Thank
You.
Mr.
chairman,
mr.
Vickery.
E
D
Only
because
whoever's
gonna
take
my
position
is
gonna
have
to
learn
the
field
stuff.
They're
gonna
have
to
get
ahead
of
this
because
I
don't
have
I,
have
Chris
Martin.
Who,
who
is
our
lead
mechanic,
he's
available
for
all
the
buildings
and
understands
how
most
of
them
work?
The
rest
of
these
guys
typically
are
building
specific.
If
you
will
and
I
got
Kenny
Kenny
Griffin,
he
he
travels
around
downtown
here.
D
E
D
Would
say
yes
and
taking
it
a
part-time
girl
here
that
she
could
at
least
take
over
the
paperwork
side
of
this.
It's
huge.
It's
huge
I
mean
all
the
paperwork
that
has
to
go
into
the
state
of
Illinois
just
for
elevators
boilers
and
sprinklers,
and
all
those
things
that
have
to
go
to
the
state
of
Illinois
for
approval
I
mean-
and
these
guys
know
better
than
anybody.
That
I
said.
A
H
Definitely
echo
I
mean
I,
understand
what
mr.
leer
I
mean
I'm,
also
on
criminal
justice,
so
I
and
I
was
at
the
meeting
yesterday,
where
I
heard
what
he's
echo
echoing
today,
but
I
definitely
would
whatever
we
can
do
miss
Peters
brought
up
of
getting
you
some
help,
because
you
are
I,
guess
the
way.
I
look
at
you.
H
You
are
like
the
general
contractor
and
for
general
contractors
who
also
happen
to
be
like
a
small
business
where
you're
also
having
to
be
out
there
doing
hands-on,
not
just
general
contractor
I
know
from
personal
experience
it's
hard
for
that
person
to
be
able
to
spend
time
in
an
office.
Doing
the
that's.
H
That's
the
part,
that's
the
hardest
for
and
and
generally
not
their
strong
point,
because
they're
good
at
hands-on,
they're
great
at
what
they
do
it,
organizing
things
and
doing
that
out
in
the
field,
but
not
having
a
person
taking
care
of
that
in
the
office
is
huge
and
I
appreciate
the
work
that
you
have
done.
That
you've
had
to
do
at
all.
That's
tremendous
applause
for
you
for
the
work
and
I
again
I
know
all
the
departments
have
well.
D
A
Let's
curtail
this
for
a
while
and
I'll
talk
to
Mike
and
I'll
talk
to
mr.
wheeler
and
see
where
we
can
head
this
program
at.
Obviously,
he
needs
help.
So,
let's
see
what
process
we
can
get

Seventy
six
cents,
okay,.
B
J
All
right,
I
do
have
a
resolution
this
morning.
This
is
the
resolution
appropriating
funds
for
the
payment
of
the
County
engineer's
salary,
because
we
participate
in
the
county
engineer
salary
program.
We
have
to
authorize
the
money
through
motor
fuel
tax
for
my
salary
this
year
there
was
no
increase
in
my
salary
attached
to
the
resolution
is
a
letter
from
I
dot
with
recommended
salaries,
and
my
salary
did
not
from
this
year
the
next
year.
So
it's
a
it's,
it's
straightforward
and
it
effective
January
1st
through
December
31st
of
next
year
in.
A
B
E
J
Intersection
is
under
investigation
by
the
Department
of
Transportation.
It's
right
on
aid,
not
only
the
county
line,
but
it's
a
district
line
with
the
state.
So
it's
district,
1
district
3
one
leg
is:
will
County
the
other
leg
is
Kankakee
County,
so
I've
been
in
the
loop
with
the
investigation
and
I
that
is
going
to
investigate
and
see
what
additional
measures
they
can
put
there.
Thank.
J
B
E
J
J
J
You'll
see
there's
three
funds
there.
One
is
the
Township
bridge
program
fund,
which
is
the
state.
The
state
pays
80%
of
this
project
and
then
the
county
and
the
Township
split
the
last
20%.
So
we
each
pay
10%.
So
as
you
go
down,
you
can
see
what
was
paid
by
Township
bridge,
what's
being
paid
by
the
county
bridge
fund
and
what's
being
paid
by
a
norton
road
district.
F
K
J
A
F
L
Good
morning,
what
never
hear
me:
okay,
okay,
so
I
was
hired
on
about
a
month
ago
and
there's
list
of
priorities
we
have,
which
is
the
one
there
we
go
now
there's
only
a
few
on
here.
I
have
a
second
list
of
priority
that
there's
a
hundred
and
thirty-four
on
okay.
So
this
is,
but
this
is
the
priority
list
that
the
Attorney
General
has
given
us
and
basically
I'm
just
gonna
kind
of
walk
through
them.
L
Let
you
know
where
we
are
with
things
and
if
you
have
any
questions,
please
stop
me
and
I'll
be
happy
to
answer
them.
The
first
one
was
our
new
ramp.
Now
we
do,
we
want
a
ramp
that
goes
from
the
east
side
of
building
the
back
of
the
parking
lot
or
the
accessible
parking
spots
are
on
the
east
side
of
the
building
and
up
to
the
front
problem
is,
is
we've
got
some
issues
with
the
front
steps
and
they're
kind
of
caving
in
and
we're
not?
L
L
But
you
know
way
to
give
the
steps
fixed
first,
because
we
can't
put
a
ramp
over
the
steps
that
are
gonna
kick
cave
in,
because
then
we're
gonna
have
to
take
the
ramp
out
and
need
more
money
for
the
accounting.
However,
but
that
that's
our
plan,
we
do
have
the
88
parking
spots
in
the
back
of
the
building
or
rear
of
the
courthouse,
so
we
want
to
kind
of
make
the
ramp
go
on
the
east
side
and
then
up
to
the
front,
so
we're
working
on
that.
L
L
He
has
to
have
an
accessible
jury
box
and
a
route
to
a
jury
deliberation
room
where,
if
someone
is
in
a
wheelchair
that
they
can
get
to
that
deliberation,
room
and
then
also
an
accessible
witness
stand.
Okay,
now,
chief
judge
Cramer
has
decided
that
we're
going
to
do
room
204
as
that
to
be
renovated
and
that's
in
the
works
as
well,
and
those
are
the
two
big
projects
that
on
that
first
list
that
we're
working
on.
L
L
Now
we
had
several
parking
issues
throughout
the
different
parking
lots
we
have
around
the
courthouse
and
brian
has
done
a
real
good
job
and
actually
he's
got
this
done
and
I
was
surprised
because
I
was
only
here
a
couple
of
weeks
and
it
was
in
the
works
and
he
said
Pam.
This
is
done,
don't
worry
about
it.
Okay,
so
I
didn't
have
to
thank
you.
Thank
you,
Brian,
okay,
the
exit
plan.
No,
we
do
have
an
it.
We
did
have
an
exit
plan,
an
evacuation
plan
for
the
courthouse.
L
However,
it
did
not
really
specify
or
include
several
areas
for
people
with
disabilities,
so
basically
I
took
what
she
had
and
built
off
of
that
and
the
changes
were
I
had
changed
the
language
because
it
used
some
language
that
was
outdated,
not
politically
correct
anymore.
As
far
as
you
know,
handicapped
or
that
kind
of
thing
so
change
the
language
and
then
I
also
encouraged
disclosure.
You
know
if
someone's
come
to
the
courthouse
and
they
know
they're
gonna,
be
there
for
jury
duty
or
that
kind
of
thing.
L
Please
let
us
know
if
you
need
accommodations,
let
us
know
in,
but
let
us
know
that
you're
in
the
courthouse,
because,
if
you're
on
the
third
floor-
and
there
happens
to
be
an
emergency,
we
didn't
know
how
to
get
you
out.
You
know
if
you're,
if
we
can't
use
the
elevators
that
kind
of
thing,
so
in
that
plan
I've
kind
of
encouraged
people,
let
us
know
hey,
you
know,
I'm
here
and
I
mean
may
need
some
help
or
I
need
an
accommodation
or
I
may
not.
You
know
that
kind
of
thing.
L
We
also
pointed
the
courthouse
security
as
responsibility
to
get
people
with
disabilities
out
of
the
courthouse
and
I
spoke
with
sheriff
downing
and
he's
aware
of
this,
the
plan
and
he
approved
it.
So
it's
gonna
take
some
training
on
that
part,
but
he
needed
to
prove
it.
We
added
some
information
on
the
evacuation
of
mobility
devices.
If
someone
has
to
be
evacuated
from
the
courthouse
and
we
evacuate
them,
but
then
their
wheelchair,
their
scooter
or
whatever
is
on
the
third
floor,
how
do
we
get
that
out
to
everything
they're
gonna?
Need
it
outside?
Okay.
L
L
Should
there
be
an
emergency
as
well
as
if
they
have
a
service,
pet
or
dog
or
what-have-you,
how
to
get
them
out
and
safely
and
get
them
back
with
the
owners,
and
also
we
introduced
the
we're
going
to
with
the
approval
of
the
Attorney
General,
we
will
purchase
evacuation
sleds
and
an
evacuation
chair
now
within
this
exit
plan,
we
have
put,
we
have
placed
in
there
where
those
are
mats
will
be
and
where
that
chair
will
be
in
case
of
emergency.
Okay
and
also
staff
will
be
trained
on
how
to
assist
those
with
disabilities.
L
L
Thank
you
in
the
annex
building.
So
you
know
different
places.
So
how
do
we
get
them
there
once
we
get
them
outside
if
they
don't
have
their
wheelchair?
If
they
don't
have
you
know
their
mobility
devices?
How
do
we
get
them
there?
So
I
had
to
figure
out
how
to
get
the
transportation
from
outside
to
the
assembly
areas
that
and
then
I
also
elicited
our
own
employees.
You
know
it.
L
L
Pending
the
Attorney
General's,
a
all,
this
is
at
their
office
right
now
and
we're
just
waiting
for
them
to
give
it
gives
us
the
okay
back.
We,
they
can't
tell
us
what
we
needed
to
do,
and
we
put
it
all
out
there
now
we're
just
waiting
for
them
to
give
us
a
nod
of
approval.
Okay
and
staff
needs
to
be
trained
on
this.
L
Basically
we're
going
to
go
ahead
and
distribute
the
plan,
the
exit
plan
to
everybody
over
in
the
courthouse
and
if
they
have
any
questions,
comments,
that
kind
of
thing
we'll
go
ahead
and
address
that,
more
importantly,
we're
also
going
to
have
to
train
staff
on
you
know
the
rescue
mats,
the
rescue
chair,
how
to
use
those.
How
do
we
make
sure
that
people
are
gonna
get
evacuated
safely
and
without
being
hurt?
L
You
know
so
we
have
planned
in
place,
for
that
was
just
like
I
said,
pending
approval
we'll
go
in
over
to
whoever
the
sheriff
Downey
has
decided,
is
going
to
be
these
people
and
will
train
them.
However,
new
new
staff
that's
coming
in
will
go
ahead
and
train
them
upon
new
employee
orientation
on
both
the
exit
plan,
as
well
as
the
equipment
that
needs
to
be
used.
C
L
Sir,
the
eggs
that
the
chair
is
gonna
be
in
the
basement
of
the
courthouse
in
case.
We
need
to
go
up.
Okay,
the
mats
are
more
used
to
go
down
the
stairs
it's
easier
to
take.
They
put
somebody
in
a
can
exit
or
an
evacuation
mat
and
bring
them
down
the
stairs,
but
taking
them
up.
The
stairs
we've
decided
that
we're
gonna
go
ahead
and
do
the
a
chair
at
the
bottom
of
the
stairs.
L
L
There
was
an
issue
with
someone
was
in
the
courtroom
they
really
didn't
have.
If
they
were
in
a
wheelchair,
they
were
not
accessible
as
far
as
the
tables
I
couldn't
get
under
him.
They
couldn't
right.
They
were
too
far
away.
That
kind
of
thing
well
kind
of
an
easy
fix
as
far
as
give
them
a
clipboard
okay,
and
then
we
do
have
this
table
that
I
believe
we're
going
to
purchase
pending
approval
and
it
does
fold
down.
So
it's
gonna
be
something
that
could
be
folded
and
put
into
the
courtroom.
L
That's
gonna
be
accessible,
leave
it
there,
and
then
we
have
kind
of
a
lap
tray.
That's
just
it's
not
very
much
money,
but
the
problem
with
the
lap
tray
buying
one
over
the
other
is
the
lap
tray
fits
standard
sized
wheelchairs
and
if
you
have
what
they
call
the
big
boy
wheelchairs,
we're
gonna
need
the
table,
so
it'd
be
easier
to
give
them
a
lap
tray.
But
if
they
need
a
bigger
table,
that
kind
of
thing
we
need
to
have
that.
Okay,.
F
L
F
L
Okay,
accessible
restrooms,
everybody
kind
of
gotten,
a
big
tip
about
the
restrooms,
because
everybody
thought
that
all
the
rest
of
the
work
and
the
courthouse
needed
to
be
accessible,
which
is
not
true.
We've
got
two
accessible
restrooms
at
room
106,
so
106
C
on
the
first
floor,
they're
fully
accessible,
they've
been
renovated,
they're,
actually
pretty,
but
they've
been
renovated,
and
everything
thing
is
that
we
have
to
make
sure
that
people
with
disabilities
can
get
to
those
restrooms
okay,
so
then,
and
that
their
sign
is
pointing
to
where
that
restroom
is.
L
E
L
Not
every
restroom
and
the
courthouse
is
gonna
be
accessible,
that's
not
feasible
and
it's
what
they
call
an
undue
hardship
as
far
as
going
through
and
remodeling
every
bathroom
in
the
courthouse,
however,
that
we
do
have
a
men's
and
a
woman's
restroom
that
is
accessible
and
they
the
bailiffs,
will
be
trained
as
to
where
and
how
to
get
them
there.
Okay,
oops.
L
So
I've
been
studying
working
on
the
first
ten
twelve
that
we
have
and
I
haven't
even
got
to
134,
yet
so
I'm
working
on
the
self-evaluation
plan
as
we
go
and
it's
just
it's
a
work
in
progress
and
they
they
know
that
I'm
working
on
it
and
they're
not
upset
about
it
or
anything.
But
it
is
what
it
is
and
that's
that's
how
we're
rolling
with
it
right
now
and
I'm
working
really
well
with
a
Attorney,
General
and
they're
happy
that
somebody's
you
know,
make
contact
with
them
and
gotten
them
know
everything's
going
up.
L
L
The
revisions
were
maybe
about
$3,800,
to
do
a
couple
of
desks
and
make
sure
that
they
had
the
computers
are
supposed
to
be
up
and
running
by
January
1st.
Okay,
now
I
have
sent
along
with
an
email
to
the
Attorney
General,
all
the
specs
that
need
to
be
changed
within
that
room
to
make
them
accessible,
which
is
basically
the
desk
and
the
doorway
if
they
get
in
the
door
and
then
get
to
the
desk.
That's
all
I
need
okay,
I'm,
not
gonna,
go
through
the
whole
office
and
say:
oh
you,
this
isn't
right,
that's
not!
L
They
just
need
to
get
in
and
get
into
the
desk.
Okay,
so
I
sent
the
specs
over
to
attorney
general's
and
we're
waiting
for
that,
and
hopefully
they'll
approve
them
pretty
soon,
because
he
needs
to
get
started
on
this,
to
get
it
up
and
rushed
up
and
running
their
computers
in
and
up
and
running
by
the
person
of
January.
L
I
I
Knows
items
are
incorporating
this
yes.
My
second
question
is
this:
is
a
two
and
a
half
three
page
document
mm-hmm,
it's
entitled
emergency
mm-hmm.
How
in
the
event
of
emergency,
is
somebody
going
to
be
aware
that
oh
yeah
I'm
supposed
to
respond
to
X
emergency
on
page
two
that
doesn't
happen?
How
you
plan
on
using
this
program?
It
mainly.
L
This
is
gonna
be
distributed
throughout
the
staff
at
the
courthouse
and
hopefully,
and
that's
why?
So
we
try
to
listen
the
fact
that
if
someone
that
does
have
disabilities
that
they're
gonna
be
with
in
the
courthouse,
please
let
us
know
you
need
accommodations
if
you
don't
okay,
fine,
but
if
you're
gonna
be
on
a
jury
for
two
or
three
days.
L
I
L
M
L
Miss
Haley
from
the
courthouse
Adrienne
Haley.
She
is
the
disability
court
court
coordinator
there
and
she
has
all
the
documentation
and
we
we
worked
pretty
closely
as
far
as
if
I
get
some
kind
of
accommodation
request
or
she
doesn't,
we
go
back
and
forth
to
make
sure
that
those
accommodations
are
provided
as
requested.
So
she
she
mainly
has
all
that
under
for
the
courthouse
now
for
the
county.
I
have
a
bank
of
a
list
of
people
that
need
to
be
as
far
as
interpreters,
whether
their
sign
language
or
Spanish,
or
you
know
different
language.
Interpreters.
A
J
Every
year
about
this
time,
I
come
to
the
committee
because
I
was
I
was
kind
of
instructed
to
you
know,
get
get
the
committee's
approval
to
purchase
some
major
equipment,
and
so
this
year
after
completing
my
budget,
there's
a
few
pieces
of
equipment
that
I'd
like
to
purchase.
The
first
is
a
new
tandem
dump
truck.
J
We
can
purchase
a
state
bid
or
what
we've
also
thought
about
was
purchasing
the
the
cabin
chassis
by
letting
and
then
do
the
rest
of
the
the
body
equipment
through
the
state
bed.
But
we
were
kind
of
running
the
numbers
on
that,
but
if
we
did
purchases
state
bid,
it'd
be
a
hundred
sixty
six
thousand
two
hundred
seventy
nine
dollars.
Of
course
we
need
a
snow,
plow,
spreader
and
wing
plow,
so
the
total
on
that
one
would
be
about
a
hundred
ninety
eight
thousand
five
hundred
ninety
five
dollars.
J
We
would,
we
would
be
replacing
a
2004
dump
tandem
dump
with
about
a
hundred
and
sixteen
thousand
miles
on
it.
It's
starting
to
show
its
age
in
repairs
and
breakdowns.
But
you
know,
because
we
use
these
truck
pretty
pretty
heavily
in
the
winter
time.
I
mean
there
we
have
a
snow
storm,
that's
we
go
24/7
yeah,
it
does
get
its
use.
The
next
thing
on
the
list
would
be
a
new
line.
J
The
last
thing
on
the
list,
but
the
list
is
a
lot
bigger,
but
these
are
things
I
had
to
prioritize
is
a.
We
need
a
new
wheel,
loader
the
wheel
loader
we
can
get
national
joint
purchase
and
I
asked
my
shop
foreman,
whether
there's
anybody
local
on
that
there
is
not
anybody
locally
in
Kankakee
County
that
sells,
you
know
the
piece
of
equipment
we're
looking
for
the
closest
would
be
Joliet
and
they
would
probably
get
it
anyway
through
the
the
National
joint
purchase
agreement.
J
That
would
be
a
hundred
ninety
five
thousand
seven
hundred
eighty
one
dollars.
We
would
be
trading
in
our
two
thousand
case,
wheel,
loader,
and
it's
got
five
thousand
hours
on
it.
It
is,
it
is
showing
some
rust
and
we
are
having
some
reliability
problems
with
it.
Some
of
the
parts
are
obsolete,
we're
having
issues
getting
parts
for
equipment.
That's
you
know
seventeen
years
old.
We
would
probably
trade
that
in
and
we
could
get
about
twenty
six
thousand
dollars
on
a
trade-in,
so
the
toll
for
that
one
would
be
about
a
hundred
and
seventy
thousand
dollars.
A
J
This
is
all
on
my
budget,
and
the
reason
I'm
coming
to
you
now
is
because
there
are
some
deadlines
to
order
these
pieces
of
equipment.
We,
if
we
ordered
this,
the
new
tandem
dump
truck
today,
we
probably
wouldn't
get
it
until
October
of
next
year.
That's
how
long
it
takes
to
get
these
these.
This
equipment.
