DAILY HERALD
— Island Lake planning commissioner nominated for open trustee seat – Russell Lissau (DIERSEN: If you were nominated for a position, who would object and why? What would the stated reasons be? What would the real reasons be?)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20190724/island-lake-planning-commissioner-nominated-for-open-trustee-seat
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A relatively new Island Lake transplant has been nominated to fill a vacancy on the village board. Dan Powell, who moved to Island Lake less than three years ago, could be appointed to the seat during Thursday night’s board meeting. He’s been nominated by Mayor Charles Amrich, but it’s up to the trustees to approve the nomination. If appointed to the board, Powell will replace Jennifer Villarreal, who unexpectedly resigned in June. Amrich initially had suggested appointing former trustees Mark Beeson or John Burke to the post, but board members objected to those nominations last month and delayed votes.)
