Early yesterday afternoon, newly-installed McHenry County Board Chairman Jack Franks cancelled a raft of County Board committee meetings, as you can see below:
Meetings canceled by McHenry County Board Chairman Jack Franks.
During his first County Board meeting, Franks announced that what would have been considered at such meetings will be covered in a Committee of the Whole meeting on December 19th to be followed by a County Board meeting on December 20th.

In other words, County Board member input at the committee level is unnecessary. The Chairman and administrative employees will take care of everything.

And how many Board members have the spine to censure him?
Remember, the voters voted in the majority for each and every Board member including the little liar.
Here it comes!
The diktator rules!
Committee of the Whole Meetings by public bodies are typically staggered every 2 weeks with Regular Board Meetings.
Example:
December 7, 2016 – Committee of the Whole
December 21, 2016 – Regular Meeting
January 4, 2017 – Committee of the Whole
January 18, 2017 – Regular Meeting
etc.
The County had Committee of the Whole Meeting, followed the next Regular Board Meeting, on the following dates in 2016:
March 18, 2016 – Committee of the Whole

Nothing gets done until Jack gets his way.
@Mark What is your point with the Committee of the Whole meetings?
Those are special meetings from what I saw in regards to certain issues going on at the time. \
I don’t think that they were planned months in advance.
