Kincaid adopts stricter nepotism ordinance restricting elected officials and trustees
Summary
The board approved a revised nepotism ordinance that Mayor Pezze described as more stringent; Trustee Broccardo moved to adopt and Trustee Dees seconded. The ordinance now bars certain familial hiring involving elected officials and trustees.
Mayor Tony Pezze told the board the nepotism ordinance had been revised to make its restrictions stricter and asked for a motion to adopt. Trustee Broccardo asked whether the revised language now precluded elected officials and trustees from participating in nepotistic hires; Pezze confirmed it did. Broccardo moved to approve the revised ordinance and Trustee Dees seconded; the motion passed by consensus ('All ayes').
The board did not discuss implementing procedures or an enforcement timetable during the meeting; the revised ordinance will be reflected in the village code as amended.
