After roll call and minutes, the board approved appointments for Joe Dorr to the Owaneco Fire Protection District and Ron Verardi to the Taylorville Fire Protection District. The board approved some ordinances including zoning variance applications. Chairman Bryan Sharp says the first one was for Sloan Implement Company at 2050 North Road and Illinois Route 29.
The next zoning variance application was for Central Commodity FS on Vandeveer in Morrisonville.
The next zoning variance application was for Warren Elder at 1871 East 2850 North Road in Blue Mound.
All zoning variance applications were approved. Under agenda items, it was approved to move committee meetings to 6 PM instead of 6:30 PM. A resolution was adopted in the migrant asylum seeker resolution. Chairman Sharp said that the Board does not intend to seek funding from Illinois to fund migrants or asylum seekers.
The board adopted salaries for the circuit clerk and coroner. Under new business, the board tabled a motion on the Taylorville-Christian County Enterprise Zone. There was a little discussion on the Kincaid Ash Pond. The board waited to send a letter until they got further information on what is actually taking place there.
