Union County Board carried a series of routine administrative actions, approving minutes and multiple resolutions, and voted to enter executive session to discuss pending litigation.

The board first approved the regular minutes from the Dec. 27 meeting and later approved the payment of bills and a single building permit. The board also approved an intergovernmental grant agreement with the State of Illinois Emergency Management Agency and Office of Homeland Security (described in the record as an annual grant) and approved a resolution certifying persons required to file statements of economic interest for the year. The board approved resolutions authorizing the sale of delinquent property held by the county trustee and approved participation in the Illinois Public Works Mutual Aid Network (discussed separately). Near the meeting's end, the board voted to enter an executive session to discuss pending litigation.
