[IL-Talk] Public Hearing - Chicago - Accessible Vote by Mail

[Ray Campbell]

They didn't leave it open today, just as they didn't for the Springfield hearing last week.  My experience with public agencies is they leave the record open for the full duration of the meeting as advertised.

BTW, Denise and I were the only individuals who were there in person.  Many great comments from everyone!

I also tried to come in at 3:05 or so. I am surprised they didn't leave it open after advertising it as a two hour meeting.
