Vermilion County board approves about 65 property-transfer resolutions tied to trustee-sale program
Summary
The Vermilion County Board voted to adopt a package of roughly 65 resolutions transferring parcels from the county trustee-sale program to municipalities and individual buyers; the board approved the package collectively after brief questions about destinations and buyers.
The Vermilion County Board voted unanimously to approve a package of roughly 65 resolutions transferring properties tied to the county trustee-sale program.
At the meeting, the resolutions—prepared by the law firm representing Vermilion Advantage, the county’s trustee-program agent—were presented as a single block for collective approval. Mr. Miller moved to approve the entire set and Mr. Steinburg seconded. The motion passed by roll call: 25 yes, two absent.
Board members asked where the parcels would be transferred. The speaker summarized the distribution as about 50 parcels to the City of Danville, three to the Illinois Land Bank Authority, three to the village of Potomac, one to the village of Oakwood and 10 to individual buyers. The speaker said the individual buyers’ names are listed in the resolutions but did not confirm whether all those buyers are local residents.
The resolutions were presented as part of the board’s trustee-sale program administration; the law firm that drafted the resolutions was identified as the attorney for Vermilion Advantage, the county’s agent for that program. No individual parcel-by-parcel roll call was requested; the board adopted the package in a single recorded vote.
The board did not take additional public testimony on the resolutions during that agenda item; any names of individual buyers and the full parcel list are included in the adopted resolutions, which the clerk said would be part of the meeting record.
