Editorial note: Absent from tonight’s agenda is any discussion of the 12th annual The Hills Are Alive Fall Festival 2024 scheduled for Sunday, September 15th at the district Riding Center. Like we’ve noted before, it’s another example of boilerplate agendas to keep taxpaying residents in the dark.

The Village Equestrian Commission will be meeting at 5:30 this afternoon. Items on their agenda include:
A copy of the agenda can be viewed and downloaded here. Recordings from their May 24th meeting can be reviewed here.
Editorial note: The May 24th meeting recordings reveal Trustee Laura Ekstrom (a high-functioning talkaholic) actively participated in that meeting as though she was a sitting commission member. However, Ekstrom was appointed as a liaison to the Equestrian Commission. As such, what we’ve experienced over many years is that her role should be that of an observer, to answer questions posed by the commission and to report back to the Board of Trustees with commission meeting activity.
* Approval of minutes from prior meetings traditionally precedes items to be discussed and voted on in the current agenda.

The Village Equestrian (Riding Club) Commission is scheduled to meet for the first time since September 7, 2022, tomorrow at 1 PM at Village Hall (not the Riding Center). The sole topic on their agenda is, “Equestrian Trails Discussion.”
A copy of their agenda can be viewed here. Minutes from their last meeting have not been released as of this posting.
Editorial note: The Commission (Club) was scheduled to meet in less than two weeks on June 3rd. After nearly two years of inactivity (publicly, at least), one might question what precipitated this special meeting right before a holiday?
Word has it recordings from Monday’s Plan Commission meeting might shed some light on this once they are released.
