Our Village recently posted their ”Spring 2024” newsletter. This issue includes:
- President’s Letter
- Police Chief Colditz Retires in July
- HAVE A CUP O’ “JOE” WITH CHIEF COLDITZ
- Police Department Earns Reaccreditation
- Lunch with a Cop
- Arbor Day and Earth Day! How did you observe these days?
- Road Program 2024
- Soon to make an appearance…2024 Cicadas, and
- June 29 Land We Love Run
What the newsletter lacks is a considerable number of updates from Q-1 2024 that residents should be aware of, including:
- In a special meeting January 3, the Board voted to amend our code to, “Create a license requirement for (migrant) chartered transportation drop-off services (no doubt to prevent the godless hoards if immigrants from soiling the new floor in the lobby of Village Hall)).”
- Increased penalty amounts for Code violations.
- Any information whatsoever on the Board’s vote in February to annex seven (7) parcels of land into Barrington Hills.
- The Village is purchasing and replacing security video recording and management systems in Village Hall, and
- The Zoning Board is reviewing significant updates and addition to codes including fence/berm allowed heights, regulations for roof and/or ground mounted solar panels and wind energy systems and codes covering anything mobile residents might store on their property.
Further, minutes from the February meeting of BACOG include, “Cecola reported the Village recently annexed two landscaping businesses.” Why didn’t “Cecola” bother to drop this and other meaningful nuggets content into his message to residents?
The answer is simple. The Cecola administration does not want informed residents. Sure, this publication and others have done their best to inform residents. But clearly when it comes what we share with our readers, our president would rather you just fuhgeddaboudit.
