Lisle has more than 13,000 registered voters, but scarcely more than 3,000 of them bother to vote in any given election. Many of the people who live in Lisle but don't vote are probably unaware that their failure to vote can have a direct impact on their lives and their families.
Recently 3 Lisle trustees were reelected to the Village Board. Last Monday the Village Board voted to reappoint Charles Rego as chair of the Planning & Zoning Commission, with no discussion. Setting aside the fact that Rego's previous behavior and his choice to be an "active investor in Lisle real estate" make him unsuitable for a seat on the PZC, new information about Rego has come to light, and it should make every Lisle resident who did not vote in the recent election think long and hard.
Rego rents a property to a registered sex offender at a location just a few houses away from the Lisle Library and St Joan of Arc school.
Information for Village of Lisle residents about what their public officials are doing (or not doing) to fulfill their responsibilities to constituents. Lisle is a community of hard working people who deserve much better than they're getting from their Mayor and Village Trustees, especially in these difficult economic times: better transparency, better focus on public safety, and much better attention to spending priorities.
