17-2342 Proclamation - Telecommunicators Week
Alex Szalinski thanked the Mayor and Board for this proclamation. He stated that by the end of this year we will no longer employ dispatchers in Romeoville because of the consolidation mandate. On top of their stressful job, our dispatchers have the added burden of not knowing how their careers will be affected by this consolidation. It has been made very clear to us that the Village's focus is to do right by the dispatchers and that is a big reason why our 16 dispatchers are still here. They make a difference and some times that difference is between life and death.
Mayor Noak added that the consolidation is a mandate by the State of Illinois. Unfortunately, this is out of our hands.

Aye: 6 - Trustee Chavez, Trustee Palmiter, Trustee Griffin, Trustee Richards, Trustee Clancy, and Trustee Aguirre
