GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Ten have applied to be appointed to fill Wheaton’s West District City
Council vacancy. If your representative on your city council resigned, what
would you want the process to fill the vacancy to include? I want the city to
issue a press release each time it receives an application to fill a vacancy.
Those press releases should not only disclose the applicant’s name, but the
completed application, resume, and all the documents that were submitted.
Residents should have the right to know not only the applicants’ names, but a)
how long they have lived in the city and in the district, b) why they want to
be appointed to fill the vacancy, c) what they believe the most important
issues are that the city needs to address, d) what their opinion is on how
those issues could be addressed, e) what their work experience is, f) what their
education is, g) what professional certifications and licenses are, and h) what
experience do they have carrying out typical city council functions: Review and
approve the annual budget; Establish long- and short-term objectives and
priorities; Oversee performance of the local public employees; Oversee
effectiveness of programs; Establish tax rates; Enter into legal contracts;
Borrow funds; Pass ordinances and resolutions; Modify the city’s charter;
Regulate land use through zoning laws; Regulate business activity through
licensing and regulations; Regulate public health and safety; Exercise the
power of eminent domain; Communicate policies and programs to residents;
Respond to constituent needs and complaints; and Represent the community to
other levels of government. (SEE: https://www.nlc.org/city-councils)
There should be at least one well-publicized candidate forum before an
appointment is made. Because aforesaid has not happened, and apparently will
not happen, for Wheaton’s West District City Council vacancy, yesterday, I
filed my application, and today, I filed a Freedom of Information Act request
for all the documents that applicants have filed. Needless-to-say, I want to
know if the candidates would vote for or against banning the sale of pot in
Wheaton. – Dave Diersen

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH BIG COLOR PICTURE IN THE NAPERVILLE SUN: DuPage
committee starts discussion on allowing or banning recreational pot sales in
unincorporated areas – ALICIA FABBRE (DIERSEN: At DuPage County’s last board
meeting, I called for DuPage County to be the first country in Illinois to ban
the sale of pot. I will continue to do that at future board meetings. Please
join me.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/ct-nvs-dupage-board-recreational-pot-st-0807-20190806-6cxgufxut5d2jb2cyjkkprv4dy-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Committee members will continue discussion of the issue on Aug. 20 and could
bring a recommendation to the full county board as early as the board’s Sept.
10 meeting. Currently, DuPage County zoning follows state law for medical
marijuana facilities. Under those rules, cannabis cultivation centers must be
located at least 2,500 feet from schools, group homes and residential areas and
dispensaries cannot be closer than 1,000 feet to the same sites. If the same
standards were used, there likely would be no place to locate a dispensary or
cultivation center in any area under the county’s jurisdiction, said Sam
Tornatore, who heads the board’s development committee. “If we decided to
mirror current zoning, then essentially it’s game over,” said Tornatore, a
Roselle Republican. He and others noted the county would have to adopt less
restrictive rules than those for medical marijuana in order to allow
dispensaries or cultivation centers in unincorporated areas. State law leaves
it to municipalities and counties to decide if they want to put any
restrictions in place for recreational marijuana businesses, officials said.
“The notion of granting easier access to recreational marijuana than to medical
marijuana makes no sense,” said board member Robert Larsen, a Wheaton
Republican.)
— Days after giving up on a recount for reelection, former Lake County Sheriff
Mark Curran to seek GOP nomination for U.S. Senate – RICK PEARSON (DIERSEN: On
July 5, 2003, a mere 16 years ago, all five announced Republican U.S. Senate
candidates (John Cox, Chirinjeev Kathuria, Andy McKenna, Jim Oberweis, and Jack
Ryan) attended a picnic that I arranged in the Prairie Path Park in my precinct
for voters in my precinct, Jeanne Ives’ precinct to the east, and Debra Olson’s
precinct to the west. The 200 attendees included Randy Hultgren.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Curran, who said he is scheduling his announcement for Aug. 15, Republican Day
at the Illinois State Fair, would become the highest profile name to enter the
March 2020 GOP primary contest. So far, four people have filed candidacy
statements with the Federal Election Commission — none with more than $1,500 in
the bank as of June 30.)

Kip Hill and Adam Shanks
http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2019/aug/06/beggs-and-wendle-in-lead-for-spokane-city-council-/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The
race for City Council president pitted two sitting members of the council
against Wendle, who despite her lack of resume in city politics was able to
raise substantial campaign funds. Beggs, an attorney with a background in
social justice who has represented the South Hill on the council since 2016,
raced to an early lead with 10,718 votes. Wendle finished the night in second
place with 9,349 votes. Mike Fagan, who has earned a reputation as the
council’s most conservative member, sought a promotion after two terms
representing the northeast district but trailed Beggs and Wendle with 8,093.
More ballots will be counted on Wednesday. The race also featured Phillip
Tyler, former president of the Spokane chapter of the NAACP, who has been
dogged by accusations of abuse by multiple ex-wives. He came in a distant
fourth. Beggs said he was confident heading into Tuesday’s election that he
would come out on top.)

that includes stints as a California Superior Court judge, prosecutor and U.S.
Army general, he was appointed in January to fill the District 4 vacancy on the
Clark County Council. During his time representing the predominantly rural
district, Medvigy has taken conservative positions on taxes and spending. Under
the county charter, only residents of that district will vote in that race.)
