Kankakee County board approves consent agenda, intergovernmental animal-control pact and two agreed judgments
Summary
The board approved a consent agenda of appointments and two bridge agreements (both reported as fully funded), authorized an animal and rabies control intergovernmental agreement with the City of Kankakee at $35,000 per year, and approved two agreed judgments in county cases numbered 2023TX84 and 2024TX35.
At its Jan. 13 meeting the Kankakee County Board approved a consent agenda that included multiple reappointments and appointments to drainage and development districts, two bridge replacement agreements described by staff as fully funded, and an amendment to the county code for fees.
Dan read the titles for the consent agenda items and the board combined and approved them on a roll-call vote. The chair noted the two bridge projects were described as "100% funded," with the first described in the record as $1,000,000 from federal funds and a state contribution that together were read into the record.
The board also approved a resolution authorizing the county board chairman to sign an intergovernmental agreement for animal and rabies control services with the City of Kankakee; the amount stated in the record was $35,000 per year. The motion to approve that agreement was made by Hunter and seconded by Tinker and passed on a roll-call vote.
Following an executive session for pending litigation (citing 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(11)), the board returned and approved two resolutions authorizing entry of agreed judgments in Kankakee County cases numbered 2023TX84 and 2024TX35. Motions to approve those agreed-judgment entries were made by Hunter and carried by roll-call votes.
No further debate or amendments were recorded on these items at this meeting.
