Joppa-Maple Grove Ud 38 Board met June 13.

Here is the minutes provided by the Board:

President Stacey Reames called the Special Meeting to order at 6:00 p.m. All members present.

Others present, Bill Biggerstaff, Ben and Gloria Schmidt, Michael Schmidt, Junior and Janet Krueger, Denise Meyer

Ben addressed the board, saying we were given more money than should have gotten from the county for at least 8 years. The district received 1,25 million dollars and never questioned it. He was told the district did question the amount when Mr Biggerstaff thought there was a mistake, the county told him it was right and that was it. Ben blamed the board for taking the money from the tax payers of the district knowingly and just not doing anything. The board did do all that it could, it is the county's job to make sure the amount is right not ours. If the county said we get a certain amount that's what we get. 

Motion by Chris and second by Peggy to go into closed session for the purpose of the selection of a person to fill a public office, as defined in the Open Meetings Act, including a vacancy in a public office, when the public body is given power to appoint under law or ordinance, or the discipline, performance, or removal of public office, when the public body s given power to remove the occupant under law or ordinance. 5ILCS 1 20/2 (c) (4)
