I do have just some questions. Okay. There is an $8,775 charge or an expense to King County and I'm wondering how many juveniles were housing over there right now? It's on the report. It's zero. I think it's a housing right now. 00:02:19.490 --> 00:02:44.450 So that must have been from the previous month. Last month it was two. So that was probably that expense, is that correct? Yes. Okay. The Twin Imaging Counseling was the program you told us about that time? Yes. Is that the fee for him? 00:02:44.450 --> 00:03:06.850 And I just wanted to make just a comment, probably for maybe the entire person who might be listening to this $10,872 for an interpreter services, which I thought was extraordinary. So we all need to learn how to speak Spanish, you know, Guatemalan or whatever it is we're using. 00:03:06.850 --> 00:03:35.610 I found out that that's a court expense. I thought that was extraordinary. That's reimbursed from the state. I thought the same thing. Because the last two months it was $11,000. Oh, wow. So it does get reimbursed from the state. At 100%? It's not my department. It did earlier, starting July 1st, things have changed. I don't know if 00:03:35.610 --> 00:03:39.790 They're reimbursing as much, but they're going to be reimbursing almost all of it. 00:03:39.890 --> 00:03:40.530 It's my understanding. 00:03:42.090 --> 00:03:42.530 Wow. 00:03:42.850 --> 00:03:43.170 Okay. 00:03:44.130 --> 00:03:46.330 Yeah, I thought that number was. 00:03:46.810 --> 00:03:49.750 Yeah, I would have thought 11,000, too, was extraordinary. 00:03:51.250 --> 00:03:52.610 So that's all. 00:03:52.710 --> 00:03:53.850 That's the only things I had. 00:03:54.450 --> 00:03:54.610 Okay. 00:03:55.070 --> 00:03:57.050 A lot of that is live people here. 00:03:57.910 --> 00:03:58.350 Yes. 00:03:58.350 --> 00:04:05.090 I was thinking that it probably was, you know, they're physically here within the county 00:04:05.090 --> 00:04:05.650 building. 00:04:06.830 --> 00:04:08.790 And they're very good at what they do, I'm told. 00:04:09.830 --> 00:04:15.130 Well, we've seen the amounts for the transcripts is the same thing. 00:04:15.690 --> 00:04:19.790 You know, there's just a lot of, it would be varying amounts. 00:04:22.700 --> 00:04:22.960 Okay. 00:04:23.760 --> 00:04:25.440 So can I, any other questions? 00:04:26.300 --> 00:04:26.500 No. 00:04:26.500 --> 00:04:26.660 No. 00:04:26.760 --> 00:04:27.500 Oh, okay. 00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:33.260 So I guess we've done a first and a second. 00:04:33.520 --> 00:04:35.420 Yes, we're just going to take a vote now. 00:04:35.540 --> 00:04:35.820 Yes. 00:04:35.820 --> 00:04:39.840 All those in favor of passing the approval of the claims? 00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:42.120 All right. 00:04:42.200 --> 00:04:43.100 If anybody say aye. 00:04:43.260 --> 00:04:43.540 Aye. 00:04:44.300 --> 00:04:44.640 Aye. 00:04:44.760 --> 00:04:46.000 Those opposed, same sign. 00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:48.240 Motion passes. 00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:50.800 Here's a sign in that bill. 00:04:52.300 --> 00:04:52.620 10. 00:04:55.500 --> 00:04:57.240 6.0, public comment. 00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:00.400 Seeing none. 00:05:00.840 --> 00:05:01.740 7.0. 00:05:02.620 --> 00:05:03.680 Forced to the committee. 00:05:04.080 --> 00:05:06.820 Judge Hauser did call me this morning and said things are going, 00:05:06.820 --> 00:05:13.520 going well and told me a couple of things that we'll discuss a little bit later on during 00:05:13.520 --> 00:05:17.500 the meeting, but, you know, who's sitting there going to talk soon. 00:05:18.340 --> 00:05:20.420 Move on to Dr. McGee. 00:05:21.800 --> 00:05:22.640 Good evening. 00:05:23.820 --> 00:05:27.900 I'm sorry, I'm not my, I'm sorry, the public defender is supposed to be next. 00:05:28.860 --> 00:05:29.540 I know public defender. 00:05:29.540 --> 00:05:30.220 No public defender. 00:05:30.380 --> 00:05:31.680 Okay, well, I'm good then. 00:05:32.260 --> 00:05:33.580 Dr. McGee, I'm sorry, go ahead. 00:05:33.660 --> 00:05:34.300 That's okay. 00:05:34.640 --> 00:05:35.260 Good evening. 00:05:35.260 --> 00:06:01.980 So I do have some good news. We did get someone hired for the supervisor position. Her name is Bernadette McGarvey. She resides in Leaf River, Illinois. I've never been to Leaf River, but she's a very nice woman and she has her master's degree in criminal justice, a bachelor's in sociology. 00:06:01.980 --> 00:06:28.660 She's got a great blend of experience. She's worked at Cook County Probation. So that right there is a cell. I'm like, you can survive Cook County for numerous years. That's saying quite a bit. She's also worked for the Dixon Correctional Center. She has experience as a social service director, as well as a psychiatric coordinator, and most recently a case manager. 00:06:28.660 --> 00:06:50.810 said she always wanted to do supervision and probation but she was waiting for her kids to get out of the house to speak so she was ready to move in that direction. So she will be starting with the department on August 10th. That process is done. 00:06:50.810 --> 00:06:56.910 Yeah, I don't know. 00:06:59.170 --> 00:07:01.850 Friber's a nice little town, but yeah, that's a stretch. 00:07:06.030 --> 00:07:07.390 Well, thank you for that report. 00:07:07.930 --> 00:07:12.870 We would like to congratulate you and thank you on your 25 years of service. 00:07:13.130 --> 00:07:13.630 Thank you. 00:07:13.750 --> 00:07:15.730 As of 7 to 26. 00:07:16.870 --> 00:07:18.850 20, yeah, correct. 00:07:18.850 --> 00:07:22.550 The judge told me you started at the bottom 00:07:22.550 --> 00:07:25.210 I'm starting from the bottom now 00:07:25.210 --> 00:07:30.070 I guess that's one way of saying it, yes, yes 00:07:30.070 --> 00:07:42.730 We were talking earlier at the department head meeting how nowadays I said the younger generations come in and they're like I want six figures and this and that and if I don't get it within a year or two I'm out 00:07:42.730 --> 00:07:50.350 So, yeah, I think in our time, that's kind of a natural progression. 00:07:51.110 --> 00:07:54.430 But you were blessed to be able to work on two degrees, too, while I was there. 00:07:54.670 --> 00:08:02.150 What you've accomplished, you know, in your personal life, these degrees, and what, you know, you're doing a great job at the probation. 00:08:02.390 --> 00:08:04.130 Yeah, it's gone by fast, thank you. 00:08:04.910 --> 00:08:07.850 Yeah, so you graduated when you're 10 years old, right? 00:08:07.850 --> 00:08:09.210 Yeah, right, yeah. 00:08:09.470 --> 00:08:11.770 That's my sense, like, well, how has it been 25 years? 00:08:11.770 --> 00:08:28.430 are only 25.

So, yeah, and I do want to just thank my department, too, for the luncheon and gift, and Judge Hauser did come down and acknowledge it as well, so I did appreciate that. It was nice. 00:08:28.430 --> 00:08:46.370 Thanks. Thank you. Thank you. Okay. Moving on. I just lost my agenda. There it is. Moving on to the state's attorney. 00:08:47.290 --> 00:08:57.730 Good evening, guys. I'm going to be fairly brief. The first thing I would mention is Tom Madigan is here with me today. He's our first assistant state's attorney. 00:08:57.730 --> 00:09:13.350 He was at his desk working at 6.15 when I left to come over and he was kind of the brains behind one of our new business action items. So I invited him and he agreed. So he's here. 00:09:13.350 --> 00:09:29.410 We're lucky to have him. He's got a lot of years of experience in law enforcement and has made a seamless transition into the state's attorney's office, does a ton of work for us and comes up with good ideas. So we're glad to have him around. 00:09:29.410 --> 00:09:40.150 The next action or the next item I would mention is since we last met, our office has had two or maybe even two and a half weddings. 00:09:41.430 --> 00:09:55.630 Our victim and witness coordinator and one of our support staff got married and then one of our ASAs who subsequently resigned to go be an ASA in Lee County got married to one of the assistant public defense receivers. 00:09:55.630 --> 00:09:59.550 So two, two and a half weapons 00:09:59.550 --> 00:10:05.880 So two, two and a half weddings, which helped spirits quite a bit around the office, I think. 00:10:06.880 --> 00:10:16.560 You all have our numbers of cases open and closed, nothing too shocking there, but we're closing about as many cases as we open and would love to be able to report that. 00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:23.020 Since I have 66.6% of your new business, I'll reserve the rest of my time for that. 00:10:23.380 --> 00:10:25.720 Thank you, guys. I'll answer any questions you may have. 00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:29.360 I think I have any questions. 00:10:30.640 --> 00:10:31.320 Okay. 00:10:31.680 --> 00:10:32.500 Thank you. 00:10:32.660 --> 00:10:35.650 Circuit Clerk. 00:10:36.550 --> 00:10:37.410 Good evening. 00:10:37.890 --> 00:10:39.170 You should have my report. 00:10:39.410 --> 00:10:41.210 If you have any questions, let me know. 00:10:45.310 --> 00:10:58.350 Starting next week, there is going to be a statewide Circuit Court user experience survey that we are required to have people complete. 00:10:58.350 --> 00:11:21.590 So there will be paper copies in the courthouse and there will be QR code. People can complete that online. It's for any civil case, criminal defendants, lawyers, including states' attorneys, public defenders, jurors, witnesses, and anybody else who utilizes the Illinois court system. Judges and court staff cannot do the survey. 00:11:21.590 --> 00:11:29.850 survey. So we'll have that out. And then I'm sure in probably six or nine months, we'll have results of that survey. 00:11:30.850 --> 00:11:39.930 And I also completed a certified court manager class that was offered through the National Center for State 00:11:39.930 --> 00:11:46.610 Courts, along with the Illinois Judicial College. So I had that class and graduated in Springfield. 00:11:46.610 --> 00:11:55.990 and there's 22 circuit clerks that took the class and there was around 40 and all that were in the class. 00:11:56.670 --> 00:11:58.110 So it's a good experience. 00:11:59.230 --> 00:12:02.550 Judge said you're the only one in District 15. 00:12:03.370 --> 00:12:04.170 I was, yes. 00:12:04.770 --> 00:12:05.290 Certified. 00:12:05.730 --> 00:12:05.970 Yeah. 00:12:06.550 --> 00:12:07.410 That's awesome. 00:12:07.610 --> 00:12:15.390 We really appreciate your, you know, taking the time to do that and try and better our department. 00:12:15.390 --> 00:12:20.290 Yep, there was a lot of good ideas and can network with other people, so that was good. 00:12:21.290 --> 00:12:23.270 So they give you a good hotel down there? 00:12:24.530 --> 00:12:25.930 No, it wasn't that. 00:12:26.090 --> 00:12:26.890 It's okay, yeah. 00:12:27.790 --> 00:12:31.330 It wasn't the Lincoln Hotel, but it was good. 00:12:32.810 --> 00:12:33.250 Okay. 00:12:34.470 --> 00:12:38.050 Like I said, we do appreciate what you do on a dedicated basis. 00:12:38.050 --> 00:12:47.090 said, but several things to get better and learn more about your problem. 00:12:47.250 --> 00:12:48.730 So we do appreciate all of that. 00:12:49.450 --> 00:12:49.850 Wonderful. 00:12:50.850 --> 00:12:52.450 Anybody have any questions for Chanel? 00:12:52.910 --> 00:12:56.090 How long will the surveys be available? 00:12:56.570 --> 00:12:57.310 Just one week? 00:12:57.510 --> 00:12:58.990 Monday through Friday of next week. 00:12:59.130 --> 00:12:59.410 Okay. 00:13:00.110 --> 00:13:03.050 As long as I get the stuff by Friday or Monday. 00:13:03.050 --> 00:13:08.110 and I, we don't have it, the papers, the boxes are supposed to arrive by Friday. 00:13:09.170 --> 00:13:09.430 Okay. 00:13:10.170 --> 00:13:21.560 Okay, 7.6 is used to urgent fees and we have $492.50 added this month. 00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:23.260 I don't see, is it total? 00:13:23.380 --> 00:13:24.400 Do you know what total total is? 00:13:24.580 --> 00:13:27.520 31, 13, 28 cents. 00:13:30.260 --> 00:13:31.380 Okay, thank you. 00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:33.260 Did everybody come and get there? 00:13:33.500 --> 00:13:34.500 Have we made all the checks? 00:13:34.500 --> 00:13:37.620 There's still one outstanding check, but they've all been delivered. 00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:40.520 Oh, you just haven't been cashed. 00:13:40.580 --> 00:13:45.580 Yeah, so $16.60 off of that balance. 00:13:46.160 --> 00:13:46.360 Yeah. 00:13:47.640 --> 00:13:49.580 Whether or not cashed. 00:13:51.560 --> 00:13:52.120 Interesting. 00:13:55.560 --> 00:13:56.780 You have no control. 00:13:58.420 --> 00:13:58.700 Okay. 00:14:01.560 --> 00:14:02.720 I see now. 00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:39.390 9.0 is new business approval of the resolution establishing the salary of the office of state's attorney and this is paid by the state 100%.

And then resolution establishing the salary for the Office of Public Defender. 00:15:23.050 --> 00:15:49.570 The way I was understanding that resolution was that the public defender receives 90% of 00:15:49.570 --> 00:15:51.650 what the state's attorney's salary is. 00:15:54.410 --> 00:15:56.530 July 1st, it's 90%. 00:15:56.530 --> 00:15:58.650 January 1st, it's 95%. 00:15:58.650 --> 00:15:59.950 Like, it's changing. 00:16:00.250 --> 00:16:00.990 Oh, it's changing. 00:16:00.990 --> 00:16:05.270 I'm sorry to interrupt. 00:16:05.450 --> 00:16:10.110 No, no, I'm glad you did because apparently I'm not reading it like I should be reading it. 00:16:12.750 --> 00:16:18.420 And then we get a reimbursement at 66%. 00:16:19.340 --> 00:16:20.220 Okay. 00:16:21.380 --> 00:16:23.910 Motion to approve. 00:16:24.810 --> 00:16:25.690 And I'll make a second. 00:16:28.710 --> 00:16:30.490 All those in favor say aye. 00:16:30.730 --> 00:16:31.250 Aye. 00:16:31.430 --> 00:16:32.550 With opposed, same time. 00:16:34.670 --> 00:16:49.550 Hearing none, motion passes. Approval of job description for discovery and disclosure of compliance officer for state's attorney's office. 00:16:49.550 --> 00:16:56.060 I can speak to that briefly. That would be helpful. That would be very helpful. Yes. 00:16:59.220 --> 00:17:05.040 We've been presented with a very, in my opinion, rare opportunity. 00:17:05.040 --> 00:17:16.000 The credit for this definitely goes to Tom. He came up with the idea, worked out the agreements with the people involved and brought it to me. 00:17:16.000 --> 00:17:25.360 And then I reached out to Georgia and she helped me work with liability to make sure this job description was appropriate. 00:17:25.360 --> 00:17:55.040 Well, and although it's called an approval of the job description, what I'm actually seeking is approval to hire someone who isn't hasn't been hired before in the state's attorney's office. Essentially, are and but we're not looking for any more money. But essentially, the there's kind of two issues here. One, we can't find attorneys to hire. We're still down two positions. And it's, it's very much a burden. 00:17:55.360 --> 00:18:22.580 on the office. The second thing is with the proliferation of cameras, you know, you've got surveillance videos, body-worn cameras, ring doorbells, the major cases in particular, but all cases, just have an enormous amount of evidence, and I know I personally spent more than a week on a major case just going through the reports, 00:18:22.580 --> 00:18:52.540 making sure every time somebody said they took a photograph we have that photograph everyone who was wearing a body worn camera we have that camera it ends up being in a major case 1500 pieces of evidence which takes a very long time to go through but you can't really just hire someone off the street to do that because they're you kind of have to speak the language you have to understand the systems if something's missing you got to go to people to get 00:18:52.540 --> 00:19:01.940 and so it's not something that we really considered doing before but this week Detective Lieutenant Brian 00:19:01.940 --> 00:19:08.180 Polish retired from the Freeport Police Department. This is an individual with more than two decades of 00:19:08.180 --> 00:19:15.220 experience and he spent at least the last year or two years running the detective bureau and he's still 00:19:15.220 --> 00:19:22.360 a relatively young man and he's looking for a part-time job and so he's willing for $25 an hour 00:19:22.360 --> 00:19:28.460 to come and go over our felony files and just make sure all the discovery is there. And if we're missing 00:19:28.460 --> 00:19:37.600 anything, he'll get it for us and get it disclosed. I mean, it's a pretty serious thing. If evidence 00:19:37.600 --> 00:19:43.880 doesn't get disclosed, convictions can be overturned, new trials can be granted, all sorts of expensive and 00:19:43.880 --> 00:19:57.840 Bad Things Happen. So given that on the horizon, there's no kind of end in sight for our hiring of the two open attorney positions, we like to alleviate some of the burden on the attorney. 00:19:57.840 --> 00:20:03.640 some of the burden on the attorneys that we do have by hiring this individual who's, if we 00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:05.840 had to pay him what he was forced, we could never afford. 00:20:08.140 --> 00:20:13.300 And so we're looking for your approval to do that today. 00:20:16.220 --> 00:20:17.400 Did that make sense? 00:20:18.040 --> 00:20:18.480 Okay. 00:20:19.560 --> 00:20:21.340 Sounds like a great opportunity. 00:20:21.660 --> 00:20:21.940 It is. 00:20:21.940 --> 00:20:22.220 Sure. 00:20:22.400 --> 00:20:23.840 And he gets along well with us. 00:20:23.920 --> 00:20:24.880 We get along well with him. 00:20:26.260 --> 00:20:27.280 He's a nice guy. 00:20:27.760 --> 00:20:43.080 Yeah, when I was reading through it, I was thinking about myself, you know, sometimes you, you've been doing a job a long time, but you just don't really want to step out and do nothing. 00:20:43.600 --> 00:20:44.940 Yeah, I think that's exactly. 00:20:44.940 --> 00:21:14.620 You want to step into something that highlights your skills, highlights, and you're willing to take less because of that and the flexibility of the job. And it sounded good to me. Yeah. If I had the knowledge, but I don't. I think for him, it'll be a whole lot less stress. But then also, there's, it's a little bit comforting to be around people that kind of speak your language. Yes. You know, so I think it's a win-win. Yeah, I do think so, too. 00:21:14.940 --> 00:21:16.580 Motion to approve 00:21:16.580 --> 00:21:18.300 And I'll make a second 00:21:18.300 --> 00:21:20.540 All right, then I got a couple questions 00:21:20.540 --> 00:21:21.360 Okay, go ahead 00:21:21.360 --> 00:21:23.320 So are we going to 00:21:23.320 --> 00:21:25.780 I know it's not going to be any extra 00:21:25.780 --> 00:21:28.660 but are we going to have a line item for him or 00:21:28.660 --> 00:21:31.620 I'll just pay him out of the ASA line items 00:21:31.620 --> 00:21:33.180 The assistant state's attorney 00:21:33.180 --> 00:21:40.240 So will that interfere if we were able to hire two more state's attorneys 00:21:40.240 --> 00:21:41.460 Well, our thought 00:21:41.460 --> 00:21:43.940 I mean, we'll have to see how everything works out 00:21:43.940 --> 00:21:50.680 But my thought is if we were able to hire two of the system of state's attorneys, then this position would cease to exist. 00:21:53.020 --> 00:22:02.940 You know, we're always open to discussion, but the big problem we're trying to solve with this right now is that we're understaffed. 00:22:02.940 --> 00:22:06.700 If we weren't understaffed, that wouldn't be a problem as much to solve. 00:22:08.260 --> 00:22:13.280 Has any counties done this? I'm just curious. It sounds like a good program and everything. 00:22:13.280 --> 00:22:18.100 I don't know, but I can tell you that they don't have the opportunity that we have. 00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:24.840 I mean, I'm sure that there aren't detective lieutenants with two decades of experience walking around looking to work for $25 an hour. 00:22:26.920 --> 00:22:27.400 Yeah. 00:22:27.880 --> 00:22:30.540 So, I mean, I'm sure they have some version of it. 00:22:30.700 --> 00:22:34.660 You know, it's probably less effective version, but I don't know. 00:22:35.240 --> 00:22:40.760 So it's $25 an hour and he's going to be working approximately 20 hours. 00:22:40.760 --> 00:23:10.440 What's that come out to a yearly thing, you know, in case I figured that out. I thought it was in the 20s, I think, but how many hours per week? One? It'll be 20 hours a week. Yeah. How much? Gross. That's $21.50 a month. If you multiply by that, by 12, it's $25,800. And well, that's, you know, even when you do have two more states attorneys, this might still come in handy. 00:23:10.440 --> 00:23:11.680 also down the road. 00:23:12.040 --> 00:23:15.300 Yeah, we'll have to see how it goes, but that would be a discussion for another day. 00:23:15.380 --> 00:23:15.960 Yeah, I know. 00:23:16.100 --> 00:23:19.760 I just, I mean, this is a good situation for you guys and everything. 00:23:20.720 --> 00:23:22.920 I mean, we would have to change our budget to do that. 00:23:23.060 --> 00:23:28.280 So that's a August conversation, not a July conversation. 00:23:28.280 --> 00:23:34.380 But you don't foresee, you still have the openings for two assistants. 00:23:35.140 --> 00:23:39.880 Is he aware that if you fill those positions that he could possibly be laid, you know, laid off? 00:23:39.880 --> 00:23:47.580 I don't think he would mind, yeah, he's also going to be a bailiff, I think, part-time, maybe 00:23:47.580 --> 00:23:55.320 eight hours a week, so, okay, thank you, okay, any other questions? 00:23:55.740 --> 00:24:01.580 No, so we'll take both, thank you, Paul and Barry, aye, aye, we'll confess, 00:24:01.580 --> 00:24:23.310 is it back to the agenda at the end? 10.0 is adjourned. I move to adjourn. Second. All those in favor say aye. Aye. Opposed? Thank you very much. Carlton, did you say that
