Peoria County Board Observer Report

11/11/2021

 
​  The Peoria County Board held its regular monthly meeting November 11 with all members present except Chairman Rand.  Member Rieker participated via phone.
  The meeting was preceded by a Redistricting Committee meeting that discussed recent changes to the draft county board district boundaries including recent modifications for the more rural areas in Districts 14 and 16.   Four public comments were read into the record.  The interactive draft map that will be recommended for approval is available on the County website under the Departments/GIS tab. Videos describing the redistricting process will be posted on the same site beginning November 24th. Additional public comments will be accepted through November 30 when the county board is scheduled to vote on the draft map.
   One proclamation was read recognizing Small Business Saturday.
 Ten items on the consent agenda were approved without discussion. Among these items were approvals of a contract extension for independent external auditing, a three year contract for health care provision for juvenile and adult detainees, technology improvements for the county board room, and a bid for rehabilitation of a bridge on Swords Avenue.
Under regular business:
  • Following four public comments, special use was approved with restrictions for an AirBnB operating on N. River Beach Drive in Medina Township.
  • A Joint Emergency Telephone System Board for Peoria and Stark counties was approved.  Stark County is the final Illinois county without 9-1-1 service and this alignment will permit this service within the next two years.
  • PCAPS redemption and adoption fees were modified.
