The full agenda is available on line at: http://www.boonecountyil.org/sites/default/files/CBAgenda%2003-20-2013.pdf
Some noteworthy items:
11.3 The administration is asking permission to purchase (subject to a trial) inventory tagging system. The county has not complete a physical inventory sine 2006. It has been criticized by the audit for lack of such—finally it appears that an actual physical inventory will be taken place.
1.
12.1 Fee increases for food inspections and well/septic and other health inspections. Bill will be voting “NO” as will the majority of the Health & Human Services.Committee My guess is that the board will vote it down as well. Apparently the Health Department knew the sentiment of the board and requested the the fees be sent back to sub-committee.

9.3 Procedure to followed for hearings on several wind turbine setback recommendation. This issue was previously outline at: http://boonecountywatch.blogspot.com/2013/03/possible-county-board-action-on.html
It is anticipated that there may be lively debate and not confined to the two minute limit suggested by Chairman Walberg. No debate just everyone allowed to speak on the matter for two minutes. No action –appears now that there are four different setback plans—1. published for the ZBA hearing 2—LeRoy Township “compromise” 3. Manchester Township suggestion 4. Yet unannounced proposal that the representative from Mainstream stated will be submitted next week month.
No direction was granted by the board. Here is the Daily Republican’s review of the board action on #9.3 and a question concerning Marion Thornberry’s comments : http://boonecountywatchdog.blogspot.com/2013/03/revised-wind-farm-regulations-get.html
