Board staff and attorneys request that the Board continue to maintain as closed the minutes of closed sessions held 2/19/2020, 2/26/20, and 2/23/2022, which have been distributed for review.

For discussion, the Board may “move to executive session, exception 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(11) of the Open Meetings Act, to review status of minutes of prior closed session meetings, and that the following individuals remain present: members of the Champaign County Developmental Disabilities Board, Executive Director Canfield, and Associate Director Kim Bowdry.”

If this motion is approved, those authorized will move to Brookens Meeting Room 3 for roll call and discussion. When the closed session discussion ends, they will move back to the Shields Carter Room, for a motion to return to Open Session and new roll call.

Once the Open Session is re-established, the recommended action to take might be: “motion to accept the February 19, 2020, February 26, 2020, and February 23, 2022 closed session minutes as presented (or revised), to continue maintaining them as closed, and to destroy the recordings of the meetings.”
