6. Legislative & Policy
Mrs. Hart stated at this time of the year, bills pop up quickly. I wanted to clarify the procedures for our lobbyist regarding filing of slips moving forward.
Mr. Moustis stated we have given the Legislative Chair and Vice-Chair some leeway to represent Will County along with the Executive Committee Chair and Executive’s Office. Often we concur, but it does not mean we move with the Executive’s Office, as they may take a different position than the Board. We represent Will County and the Executive, as do all Elected Officials, represent themselves and do not need our permission. We will continue to respond, if necessary. Sometimes we have to take a position, these are not foreign issues to us as we have usually had a discussion on them.
Mrs. Hart stated we have a blanket statement if there is something that will be an additional cost, take away dollars or any control from the county, we will oppose.
Mr. Moustis added and we oppose unfunded mandates. It is not difficult to know the position of the Board.
