CONSIDERATION OF AND ACTION ON AGENDA ITEMS
EXPLANATION OF OMNIBUS VOTING PROCEDURE
The Illinois State Statutes allow a municipality to collectively vote on a group of wsprings.com ordinances, resolutions, and other motions, such as awards of contract, appointments, etc. This is known as an omnibus vote. All the items contained on the omnibus vote list have been previously discussed by the President and Board of Trustees on at least one occasion, and often on several occasions. By placing them on the omnibus vote list, a single vote may be taken to approve them. A Trustee may remove any item from the list and have it discussed and voted on separately, prior to the omnibus vote. Is there any such request?
