Bond County Board fills local vacancies, approves courthouse‑lawn events; Pride permit passes 3‑2
Summary
The Board appointed Jes Adam to Discover Downstate Illinois and Chad Sexton to Greenville's Fire Protection Board, announced a Housing Authority opening, and approved courthouse‑lawn use for community events — Lemuel Rhodes Cancer Foundation unanimously and Bond County Pride on a 3‑2 vote.
The Bond County Board made multiple appointments and approved requests to use the courthouse lawn during its May 6 meeting. The Board appointed Jes Adam to the Discover Downstate Illinois Board (term to expire Dec. 1, 2026) to fill a vacancy left by Bill Walker's resignation, and named Chad Sexton to the Greenville Fire Protection Board for a three‑year term to expire April 30, 2028; both appointments were recorded as passing 5-0.
The Board also announced an opening on the Bond County Housing Authority Board and recommended Ed Evans for that vacancy (the transcript does not record a formal vote on that recommendation). Two requests to use the courthouse lawn were approved: the Lemuel Rhodes Cancer Foundation event on Sept. 13, 2025 (4–9 p.m.) passed unanimously, while the Bond County Pride request for Sept. 20, 2025 was approved on a 3-2 vote with Board members Jeff Rehkemper and Chairman Chris Timmermann recorded as the two nays.
