County Board Violates Open Meetings Act- Approves Settlement Without Public Recital

The Vermilion County Board approved a “settlement agreement” Tuesday night. On the Agenda the item was number 13- “Action on Proposed Settlement Agreement for Napier v. Vermilion County, EEOC Charge No. 440-06386.” No supporting documentation was given to the public or media. Prior to the item being called for a vote, Chair Steven Miller excused himself as he did not intend to stay for the balance of the meeting. The Vice Chair took over and then moved to go into closed session and asking the public and several employees of the County to step out. After a very lengthy discussion behind closed doors, the public meeting was reconvened. The Vice Chair read the item number 13 verbatim as written and a vote was taken without discussion or explanation to the public about what item 13 concerned. Even after the vote, the Vice Chair said he could not comment and the assistant state’s attorney present for the meeting waived me away when I attempted to question this procedure. Both the Illinois courts and the Attorney General Public Access Counselor have long held that before a vote is taken there must be a public recital to summarize the matter for the public. While sometime the degree of detail can be debatable, giving no information whatsoever is a clear violation of the Open Meetings Act. There was no summary of what the settlement contained, any cost or payment, and the issue involved that caused a settlement. The vote to approve was contested and the public and media were left in the dark.

Postgame Quotes - UCLA vs. Illinois

Pasadena, Calif. (Rose Bowl Stadium) The Angelo M. Mazzone III UCLA Head Football Coach. “Yeah, he did a great job. But, at halftime, his shoes are off, and then no shoulder pads, we are like ‘you gotta get your shoes back’. But we had to go make sure everything was good in there, and he was ready to go. I’ll just start by talking about this crowd that was here and the willingness and the support to stay in the rain and stay the whole time. When they walked in and the noise when Ty walked in, and the noise, I didn't know what it was. And then I saw up on the screen, him coming down the sideline, that was pretty impressive, and then they'd go right on the field and just, he grabbed everybody on that sideline, and just was dapping everybody up right down the row to make sure that they knew that he was back and went out there and delivered.”

'They Think They’re Baiting Officials, They’re Not': Brad Underwood Voices Discontent Despite Illinois’ Win vs Sam Houston

Winning by 22 points would normally give a head coach plenty of reasons to smile. However, Brad Underwood clearly had other things on his mind after No. 3 Illinois cruised past Sam Houston 108-86. Despite the comfortable victory, the Fighting Illini coach was far from satisfied with what he saw on the court, particularly his players’ repeated tendency to fall after attacking the basket. After the win over the Sam Houston Bearkats, Underwood addressed the media, the video of which was uploaded to the Fighting Illini Athletics YouTube page. When he was asked about his players’ habit of falling t...
