LeBlanc: Kane County may remove IC Trail sidewalk; training and Springfield bills noted
Summary
President LeBlanc told the board Kane County completed a legal survey and would remove an IC Trail sidewalk at county expense rather than replace it unless ADA upgrades are funded; he also summarized recent state actions and proposed training for zoning and board members.
In his president's report, Jamie LeBlanc said Kane County completed a legal survey on a sidewalk along the IC Trail and indicated the county could remove the sidewalk or contract for removal at its expense and would only replace it if the village brought the work up to ADA compliance with full engineering plans — work the county does not have in its current budget. LeBlanc said the county would put topsoil and seed and replace driveway portions with similar material if removal proceeds.
LeBlanc also briefed trustees on recent state activity: he said Governor Pritzker issued an executive order pausing processing of agreements or incentives for data centers effective July 1, 2026, that SB3450 (a solar farm authority bill) did not pass and SB3484 addressing e-moto/e-bike regulation did pass. He recommended training for the Planning & Zoning Board, noting a quoted flat fee from counsel to present a training session.
