During the Kenosha County Board's public hearing and organizational meeting on November 6, 2024, significant legislative progress was made with the unanimous passage of two key ordinances.

Ordinance 13, which was approved without opposition, marks a notable step forward in local governance. The swift approval reflects a strong consensus among board members, highlighting their commitment to collaborative decision-making.

Following this, the board addressed Ordinance 14, which amends the municipal code to grant former property owners the right to repurchase land taken by tax deed. This ordinance, also passed unanimously, underscores the board's dedication to fair property rights and community restoration. Supervisor Gents emphasized the necessity of this ordinance, stating, "We were required to do this," indicating a legal obligation to facilitate the repurchase process.

The unanimous support for both ordinances signals a proactive approach by the Kenosha County Board to address community needs and uphold property rights, setting a positive tone for future legislative efforts.
