Meeting roundup: animal-control clinic and adoptions, state attorney staffing and collections, commission schedule
Summary
The meeting included an animal-control update (clinic on the 20th; five dogs up for adoption; cat situation largely resolved), a state attorney staffing update with prospective hires and monthly collections reported, and a Northwest Illinois Criminal Justice Commission scheduling note.
County staff provided several routine administrative updates during the public safety meeting.
Animal-control lead Terry said the office has a clinic scheduled for the 20th and listed about five dogs available for adoption, with two likely to be adopted soon. She also said a cat population on an east-side street had been addressed: four cats were returned to the property, most others found homes, and two animals still required barn placements.
State Attorney Mr. Bowen said his office remains one attorney short but expected Jenna Reedman to start as an assistant state’s attorney pending bar results in early April; he also said Mike O'Brien will be leaving for Carol County and that recruitment for prosecutors is ongoing. Mr. Bowen read monthly collections figures into the record for January and February.
Keen Hudson reported there was no February meeting of the Northwest Illinois Criminal Justice Commission and said the next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, March 12.
With no unfinished or new business and no request for an executive session, members moved to adjourn and the meeting was declared adjourned.
