Kane County Sheriff’s Comments
Deputy Sheriff Hoffman commented on a call from President Overstreet regarding complaints at a residence on Hanson and the weekend car-racing in their back yard. Deputy Hoffman summarized his conversation with other Deputies and their review of State Law along with our Village Zoning. All Deputies are aware of this case and if called, will address the situation as a “crime being committed”. Past calls were dismissed as “no crime committed”. Trustee Diehl reported improper car activity as he drove on Hanson and a truck at that location drove out of the ditch (not the driveway) and nearly caused a collision. Trustee Diehl also confirmed the racing activity at that residence, having witnessed it.
Deputy Hoffman warned the Board and extended that warning to the public regarding new deceptive practice/identity theft rings exploiting the COVID-19 situation by corrupting the unemployment system. He encourages anyone receiving calls/letters/cards involving unemployment that are not validated, to call the police and report the incident. Also, follow-up the complaint by filing paperwork with IDES through their website. Checking the 3 credit bureaus for any suspicious activity is recommended as well.
Guests and Public Comment
Mrs. Strobel asked if the other committees will be holding their December meetings in person. Both the Plan Commission and Public Works, at this time, will hold open public meetings as their committees are small and should not reach the 10- person limit.
Resolution 2020-33 Granting License to Campton Township Road Dist. to Install a Transmitter at the Village Motion by Trustee Conn, seconded by Trustee Diehl to approve Resolution 2020-33. President Overstreet explained this Resolution grants license to Campton Township Roads District for the transmitter and monitor located at the Village Hall. The transmitter will send internet over to the Road District’s building across Rt 47. It’s mounted on the silo next to the Village office and is roughly 24” in diameter. The Village holds no responsibility to any equipment and the Township has liability insurance naming the Village as certificate holder, which also includes this system. PC Chair Zahn mentioned the transmitter is installed, Clerk Heffernan restated the conversations during staff meetings about the transmitter and that the Township requested this agreement for insurance purposes.
No further discussion. Roll Call vote, motion passed unanimously.
