Somonauk school board reschedules March meeting after new state election-day law
Summary
The Somonauk CUSD 432 Board moved its March meeting from March 17 to March 18 after noting that P.A. 104-0438 (formerly SB 0243) bars public bodies from holding meetings on primary or general election days. The motion passed unanimously.
The Somonauk Community Unit School District No. 432 Board of Education voted Feb. 17 to move its March meeting from Tuesday, March 17, to Wednesday, March 18 to comply with recently enacted state law. "I move that the Board approve the rescheduling of the March Board Meeting from Tuesday, March 17 to Wednesday, March 18," said Board Member Corey Britt when making the motion; Mike Short seconded and the motion passed with all recorded votes in favor.
Board materials cited the November 2025 enactment of Senate Bill 0243 as P.A. 104-0438, which prohibits public bodies from scheduling or holding meetings on the day of any general or consolidated primary or general election. The change required only a date adjustment on the district calendar; the board took no other action tied to the law at this meeting. The rescheduled meeting date will be reflected in the district’s public notices and website.
