5. CHAIRMAN'S REPORT
Vice Chair Selmon made the following remarks:
As we have heard considerable public comment of late, I thought it was important to clarify what this Board can and cannot do on the issue of assault weapons.
Today, Board Members will consider a resolution to direct lobbyists in their efforts to influence lawmakers in Congress and the state legislature as they consider laws governing assault weapons. As a non-home rule county, this County Board does not have the power to take direct action to ban assault weapon sales here in DuPage. I offer this to clarify our role as elected officials.
As DuPage County elected officials there are many things we can do…including encouraging folks to appreciate our volunteers.
On October 27, Giving DuPage is hosting the organization’s annual Volapalooza event, in person this year at Bobak’s Signature Events in Woodridge. Join nonprofit organizations, companies, municipalities and community and faith groups as they recognize over 150 volunteer leaders for their amazing contributions in the DuPage community. These everyday heroes will be recognized in many ways for their contributions to our community and the celebration will end with a special video tribute to all the Volunteer Honorees. Each Honoree will also receive a beautiful Gratitude Gift as a small ‘thank you’ for their time and dedication to our community. The event begins bright and early at 8 a.m. on Thursday, October 27th.

WHEREAS, the Illinois General Assembly passed HB3653 (commonly known as the SAFE-T Act) on January 13, 2021; and
WHEREAS, Public Act 101-0652, the SAFE-T Act, contains inconsistencies and contradictions which render its implementation problematic thereby creating dangerous consequences for DuPage County residents; and
WHEREAS, the inconsistencies in the SAFE-T Act include conflicting standards for pre-trial detention, omitting serious offenses from the list of offenses for which pre trial detention can be sought, limiting judges from ordering pre-trial detention for certain dangerous offenses; and
WHEREAS, there are conflicting opinions as to whether the Pretrial Fairness Act (that takes effect January 1, 2023) applies retroactively; and
WHEREAS, due to the vague and unclear application of the Pretrial Fairness Act, criminal defendants are expected to challenge the application and implementation of portions of the Pretrial Fairness Act; and
WHEREAS, should the SAFE-T Act go into effect as written, and should the Pretrial Fairness Act be determined to be retroactive, it will likely result in numerous lawsuits by Defendants, including those who have previously posted bond and will be ordered to be returned to pre-trial custody under the Act; and
WHEREAS, while the DuPage County Board is supportive of ending cash bail and ensuring no individuals are held pre-trial solely due to their socioeconomic status and inability to pay bail, safeguards must be allowed to provides Judges the discretion to make decisions on what conditions must be met, much like the cash bail reform system implemented by the State of New Jersey; and
WHEREAS, the Former New Jersey Attorney General Christopher Porrino notes that Illinois’ Pretrial Fairness Act differs from New Jersey’s successful elimination of cash bail in two significant ways, the first being the ability for judges to detain an individual pre-trial for any offense and second being the ability of judges to detain an individual where a defendant is shown to pose a threat to any individual, the community at large, or that the defendant poses a flight risk; and
WHEREAS, the SAFE-T Act prohibits judges from ordering pre-trial detention on a number of charges and requires, in many instances, that a defendant be a high risk of willful flight before the Court can order pre-trial detention with no consideration for the danger posed to the community; and
WHEREAS, the DuPage County State’s Attorney and the broad majority of the State’s Attorneys throughout the State of Illinois have consistently expressed concerns about the inconsistencies in the SAFE-T Act; and
WHEREAS, after consultation with the State’s Attorneys, Senator Scott Bennett introduced SB 4228 which amends the SAFE-T Act to cure the inconsistencies and omissions in the original bill and seeks to address the constitutional defects surrounding its initial passage; and
WHEREAS, members of the DuPage County Board have urged the DuPage County State’s Attorney to continue working with Senator Bennett to enact the provisions as contained in SB 4228; and
WHEREAS, SB 4228 grants judges and law enforcement discretion over whether custodial arrest and pre-trial detention is appropriate, and provides that in all cases where detention is permitted, a person may be detained pre-trial where the pre-trial detention will assure the defendant’s appearance in court, protect any person or the community from the defendant, assure that the defendant will not commit any criminal offense, assure that the defendant will not obstruct or attempt to obstruct justice or threaten, injure, intimidate, or attempt to threaten, injure, or intimidate a prospective witness or juror, and ensure that the defendant complies with all conditions of pretrial release; and
WHEREAS, SB 4228 provides for the elimination of cash bail, but gives judges discretion in determining whether an individual defendant will be detained, thereby resulting in a safer community; and
WHEREAS, in order for passage of SB 4228 to occur, Illinois House Speaker Welch and Illinois Senate President Harmon must call SB 4228 for a vote during the fall veto session.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the DuPage County Board supports the DuPage County State’s Attorney efforts in working with legislators in a collaborative fashion to address the concerns outlined above through the adoption of SB 4228; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the DuPage County Board specifically calls upon Speaker Welch and President Harmon to set SB 4228 for public debate and consideration; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the DuPage County Board directs its lobbyists to lobby members of the Illinois House and Senate in favor of SB 4228; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the DuPage County Clerk is hereby directed to prepare and deliver certified copies of this resolution via the United States Postal Service using First Class Mail and return receipts to the County’s state legislative delegation.

WHEREAS, the County Board has discussed and deliberated on the 2023 annual budget and is prepared to adopt the budget on November 22, 2022; and
WHEREAS, the County has estimated that a surplus of approximately $40,000,000 (FORTY MILLION AND 00/100 DOLLARS) will be realized in the 2022 fiscal year due to revenue growth exceeding the 2022 budget and expenditures under the 2022 budget; and
WHEREAS, the DuPage County Board will adopt a property tax levy in an amount of $70,159,542 (SEVENTY MILLION, ONE HUNDRED FIFTY-NINE THOUSAND, FIVE HUNDRED FORTY-TWO AND 00/100 DOLLARS) on November 22, 2022; and
WHEREAS, the amount of the aforementioned 2022 tax levy for the Corporate Fund portion is $25,257,700; and
WHEREAS, the County Board has determined that there is sufficient Corporate Fund revenues and reserve balances to abate an amount from the Corporate Fund portion of the 2022 tax levy in the amount of $5,000,000 (FIVE MILLION AND 00/100 DOLLARS).
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the County Board, by adoption of this Resolution, directs the County Clerk to abate $5,000,000 (FIVE MILLION AND 00/100 DOLLARS) from the Corporate Fund portion of the 2022 DuPage County Tax Levy.

WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on October 6, 2022 in the DuPage County Administration Building, 421 North County Farm Road, Wheaton, Illinois at 6:00 P.M. before the DuPage County Zoning Board of Appeals and notice of said hearing was duly given; and
WHEREAS, a petition was presented at this hearing requesting the following zoning relief:
Text Amendments to the DuPage County Zoning Ordinance:
1. Add to the DuPage County Zoning Ordinance Chapter 37, language relative to Adult-Use Cannabis Business Establishments, per the attached Exhibit A.
WHEREAS, the Zoning Board of Appeals, having considered in relation to the above requested zoning petition presented at the above hearing and at the recommendation meeting held on October 13, 2022 does find as follows:
FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. That the Zoning Board of Appeals finds that the one of the benefits of establishing regulations in the DuPage County Zoning Ordinance relative to adult-use cannabis business establishments (adult-use cultivation center, craft grower, dispensing organization, infusing organization, and transporting organizations), is to ensure that property owners and proposed business owners will clearly understand that adult-use cannabis business establishments are a permitted use in all non-residential zoning districts.
2. That the Zoning Board of Appeals finds that the proposed text amendments to the DuPage County Zoning Ordinance are important to DuPage County in the furtherance of its goals to protect and enhance the health, welfare, and safety of its residents.
3. Further, that the Zoning Board of Appeals finds that the proposed text amendments relative to adult-use cannabis business establishments meet the DuPage County Board’s goals and objectives to:
a. Locate adult-use cannabis businesses on larger roadways not generally serving residential neighborhoods or directly running through municipal downtown cores (located on “Other Principal Arterials” - per DuDOT);
b. Permit adult-use cannabis businesses only in non-residential zoning districts; c. That dispensaries and similar businesses be located on zoning lots at least 25,000 sq. ft. in size to accommodate parking and traffic;
d. To require reasonable separation from uses serving vulnerable or impressionable populations (i.e., primary schools, secondary schools, day cares, and group homes); and e. That adult-use cannabis businesses shall not be located on governmental controlled lands (i.e., Forest Preserve, Park District, etc.).
WHEREAS, the Zoning Board of Appeals, having considered in relation to the above and at the recommendation meeting held on October 13, 2022, recommends to approve the following zoning relief:
Text Amendments to the DuPage County Zoning Ordinance:
1. Add to the DuPage County Zoning Ordinance Chapter 37, language relative to Adult-Use Cannabis Business Establishments, per the attached Exhibit A.
ZBA VOTE (to Approve): 5 Ayes, 1 Nays, 0 Absent
Dissenting Opinion: That the one (1) dissenting Zoning Board of Appeals member found that they did not object to the concept of the proposed Text Amendments and found that Adult-Use Dispensing Organizations should not be permitted in an area where that use would be surrounded by a municipality that has opted out of the sale of adult-use cannabis in their jurisdiction.
WHEREAS, the County Board Development Committee on October 18, 2022, considered the above findings and recommendations of the Zoning Board of Appeals and concurs with the findings and recommends to approve the following zoning relief:
Text Amendments to the DuPage County Zoning Ordinance:
1. Add to the DuPage County Zoning Ordinance Chapter 37, language relative to Adult-Use Cannabis Business Establishments, per the attached Exhibit A.
DuPage County Development Committee VOTE (to Approve): 6 Ayes, 0 Nays, 0 Absent
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the County Board of DuPage County, Illinois that the following zoning relief be granted:
Text Amendments to the DuPage County Zoning Ordinance:
1. Add to the DuPage County Zoning Ordinance Chapter 37, language relative to Adult-Use Cannabis Business Establishments, per the attached Exhibit A.

WHEREAS, the DOT has already had to upgrade its standard vehicle purchases (at an increased cost) based on limited purchasing cooperative quantities to still meet FY 2023 and 2024 departmental operational needs and to ensure the continuation of a safe and reliable fleet; and
WHEREAS, the DOT has been advised that outstanding FY 2022 purchase orders have been canceled, impacting twenty-five (25) FY 2022 vehicle purchases; and
WHEREAS, the current market conditions along with the cancellation of previously issued purchase orders reflect extreme supply chain interruptions, and therefore the remaining FY 2023 and 2024 vehicle replacements and recently canceled purchase orders are “Not Suitable for Public Bid” in accordance with Section 2-355 of the DuPage County Procurement Ordinance and the Bidding Section of the Counties Code, 55 ILCS 5/5-1022(c); and,
WHEREAS, to ensure those vehicles identified in DT-R-0306-22, which require replacement under the County’s Vehicle Replacement Policy, are replaced (based on age, condition and/or mechanics’ assessment), it is in the best interest of DuPage County to broaden the DOT’s purchasing authority which was granted in DT-R-0306-22 and DT-R 0306A-22 to include the direct purchase of vehicles from vendors in addition to those connected with purchasing cooperatives.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by the DuPage County Board that resolution DT-R-0306A-22 is hereby amended to authorize the DOT to purchase outstanding FY 2023, FY 2024, and canceled FY 2022 vehicles at fair market value, consistent with the County’s Vehicle Replacement Policy, consistent with Section 2-355 of the DuPage County Procurement Ordinance and acting in the best interest of DuPage County, regardless of whether the vehicle is part of a purchasing cooperative.
