Highlight this week is the County Executive Transition Committee. There have been a lot of questions as to exactly how the new County Executive form of government will be organized and the role of the County Administrator once the office is filled. It'll be held in the Putnam meeting room as opposed to the normal County Board meeting room (room map of Brookens here).
[UPDATE: Speaking of the County Executive, the first of a series of separate town halls with the candidates for the office start tonight with Gordy Hulten at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday Jan. 23, Rantoul Municipal Building, 333 S. Tanner St., Rantoul. More times and dates for him and Democratic Candidate Darlene Kloeppel here.]
If you're interested in finding out more about county Mental Health and Developmental Disability programs and agencies they can be a bit wonky, but interesting to see all of the gears moving to provide care to so many in our community. Kyle Patterson had put off some commentary last week until this Mental Health Board meeting. If you're interested in what an MHB or DDB meeting is like, here are a couple write up examples: Mental Health Board 2018, Developmental Disabilities Board 10/25/2017.
The 2018 schedule is up on the Calendar page and the County page. The regular County Board meetings are back to Thursdays until next holiday season.
