Campton Hills trustees approve employee-leasing agreement for building and zoning officer James Brown
Summary
Trustees voted to authorize a continued employee-leasing agreement with MGT Impact Solutions LLC to provide building and zoning services through James Brown, with trustees noting a modest hourly-rate increase and discussing future alternatives for code enforcement.
The Campton Hills Board of Trustees on June 17 approved Resolution 25-21 authorizing an employee-leasing agreement with MGT Impact Solutions LLC to provide building and zoning officer services through James Brown. Trustee Janet moved the motion; Trustee Kim seconded. The roll call recorded unanimous “Aye” votes from trustees present and the resolution passed.
Administrator Mark Rooney told the board the arrangement would continue and that the contractor’s hourly rate includes an increase of roughly $5 per hour from the previous term. Rooney said the village has used the service previously and that he plans to address personnel options in closed session, including the possibility of hiring a lower-cost worker to handle some code-enforcement field work while preserving Brown’s specialized adjudication and planning work.
Trustee Janet praised James Brown’s work and said she would vote to retain him, but criticized MGT Impact Solutions as the employer, saying she perceives the company adds little value while its charges continue to increase. Janet said her concern is with the vendor relationship rather than with Brown.
The motion to approve Resolution 25-21 was moved by Trustee Janet and seconded by Trustee Kim. The meeting record shows Trustees Burson, Muir, Benetti, Boatner, Hassenberger, and Mallette voting “Aye.” The resolution passed.
Next steps mentioned on the record included a planned personnel discussion in closed session and Rooney’s suggestion to consider hiring a part-time code-enforcement worker for limited field duties at a lower hourly cost; no formal decision on those staffing alternatives was made during the public session.
No statutory citations or ordinance changes were presented during the public vote; the board’s action authorized the village administrator to execute the employee-leasing agreement with the named vendor.
