Update On Illegal Secret Meetings Of Lisle Trustees

Remember the Illinois Attorney General's investigation into illegal activities by Joseph Broda and Lisle trustees?  The AG found that Broda and Lisle trustees did violate the law, and has demanded that they turn over minutes and tape recordings of the secret meetings.  Penalties for these violations, as prescribed by law, are $1,500 per offense or 30 days in jail.  There were 5 violations for each trustee and Mayor Broda.  Two additional violations in January were more than 60 days prior to the original complaint, and could not be reviewed by the AG because of the 60 day expiration.  

Lisle trustees will vote on Monday night to release the closed session meetings from Jan-March 2011.  However, they have refused to release audio recordings.  Then they will go into secret session (again) to discuss the "compensation, performance of legal counsel" - watch for them to blame Ancel Glink for the Attorney General's determination that they violated the Open Meetings Act for all those meetings...better to blame the attorney than take the blame themselves.

I certainly am no apologist for Ancel Glink, but the minutes show the attorney wasn't even present at most of the meetings where the violations occurred! 

Now  - why not discuss any issues with the attorney in open session?
