Board rejects contract with Lincoln Institute for ‘Celebrating America’ appearance after divided vote
Summary
A motion to approve Resolution 04-27, contracting with Lincoln Institute for an appearance at Celebrating America, failed on roll call: Trustee Leigh Irons voted NO; Trustees Cannella and Christofilakos recorded 'present'; remaining board members voted AYE but the motion did not pass.
Trustee Kathy DeHart moved to approve Resolution 04-27 authorizing a contract with the Lincoln Institute for an appearance at the village’s Celebrating America event. On roll call, the motion failed after Trustee Leigh Irons voted NO and Trustees Joe Cannella and Katrina Christofilakos recorded 'present'; the transcript records the motion as failed.
The failed vote leaves event organizers without the contracted Lincoln appearance; the Board did not take an immediate follow-up vote or substitute motion during the meeting. The resolution text and contract terms were not read into the record during the roll call beyond the motion itself.
