Democracy in action—legal opinion is not available to the public until after the public comment period. Can’t argue the legal options without knowing them. Also Boone County readers, remember the large $’s Boone County received from DeKalb to house their over log of prisoners.
Legal counsel for the DeKalb County Board[Renee Cipriano, a former director of the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency] filed a recommendation Monday on whether to approve a proposal to expand the county landfill, but the contents of that recommendation were not yet available to The Daily Chronicle.
The revenue generated from the landfill expansion has been targeted to help pay bonds to expand and renovate the county jail and courthouse.
Monday was the deadline Cipriano set to close the public record regarding the proposal. The record consists of transcriptions of a 50-hour hearing on the matter, closing briefs from public participants and Waste Management, any comments entered by residents in the month after the hearing, and the recommendation from legal counsel, she has said.
