Summary

The Development Committee authorized acceptance of a $100,000 DCEO tourism marketing grant for the Fabulous Fox National Water Trail and approved routine procurement-card reviews and department procurement items on unanimous roll-call votes.

The Kane County Development Committee voted to authorize acceptance of a $100,000 tourism marketing partnership grant from the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) to support promotion of the Fabulous Fox National Water Trail.

Chris Toth described the grant application and credited staff members who prepared it. Committee members moved and approved the resolution by roll call. The committee also completed routine committee business: acknowledging an annual review of procurement cards and transaction limits for Development & Community Services and Water Resources and approving related procurement items; those motions passed on roll-call votes.

Why it matters: the DCEO grant will fund marketing to expand tourism activity on the Fox River corridor, and the procurement-card reviews are routine fiscal oversight items required to place reports on file.

Ending: the resolutions passed by roll call and will be implemented by staff in the planning and development department.
