Good morning everyone!  

If you were in attendance last night at the Ogle County Board meeting, thank you for taking the time to show up.  If you spoke last night during public comment, thank you.  It is not an easy task but it is greatly appreciated.  

Please note this gentle reminder: there are time limits for public comment.  Please ensure that you keep your comments between 3 and 5 minutes.  Even if your points are valid, you will do yourself a disservice by going over your limit.  It may seem like a formality, but clarity and brevity are your friends.  If you are reading materials from an in-depth article, please highlight the issues most relevant to our community.  Consider submitting the entire article for the record upon completing your public comments.

With that being said, as the weather is improving, we know that some are interested in petition materials.  Please follow this link to download and distribute materials from the comfort of your home : Petition Materials

We hope to see you this Thursday evening (May 21st) at 6:00pm: 

Old Ogle County Courthouse
First Floor Conference Room #100

105 S. Fifth St., Oregon, IL

Hope to see you there!
