functions only in matters pertaining to the police department,
and is commonly referred to locally as the Police Commission.
The Board consists of 3 individuals appointed by the Village
President and confirmed by the Board of Trustees. Members serve
for a three-year term.
This
is governed by the provisions of Division 2.1 of Article 10
of the Illinois Municipal Code.
Chairperson:
Charles Day, Jr.
Members:
Ann Marie Pawlisz, Secretary
Larry Cobb
All
meetings are open to the public. Meetings are scheduled to be
held the second Wednesday of each month at 7 PM at the Village
Hall. However, meetings will be canceled if there is no business
to conduct at the time. Meeting notices and notices of cancellations
will be posted at the Village Hall at least 48 hours before
the meeting.
