Council reappoints Amanda Carter as Elgin municipal judge
Summary
The council reappointed Amanda Carter to a two-year term as judge of the Elgin Municipal Court; the reappointment was approved by roll-call vote.
The Elgin City Council authorized the mayor to execute an agreement reappointing Amanda Carter as judge of the Elgin Municipal Court in accordance with the city charter and applicable law. Carter told the council she is required by law to seek reappointment every two years and that her court administrator was present.
Council members moved and seconded the reappointment, and the motion passed by roll-call vote. No council member raised substantive objections during the discussion.
Why it matters: The municipal judge presides over Elgin—s municipal court, handling Class C misdemeanor matters and city-code violations; reappointment ensures continuity of the court—s judicial function.
