Shelby County Airport Board Meeting -

BY JOHN KRAFT & KIRK ALLEN

ON September 15, 2020

Shelbyville, IL. (ECWd) -

We attended the Shelby County Airport Board Meeting yesterday, Sep 14, 2020.

The main topics we brought up were the following:

  • Which county airport statute is this airport governed under? There are three possible answers, each with their own powers and responsibilities, they are: 1) County Airport and Landing Field Act [620 ILCS 40], 2) County Airport Law of 1943 [620 ILCS 45], and, 3) County Airports Act [620 ILCS 50]
  • What does "deadbeat hangars" mean? The board talked about this, even mentioned sending the leaseholders a letter, but also stated all rent was paid up to date
  • Why are none of the airplane hangar/t-hangar leaseholders paying real estate taxes as required under state law?
  • Receipt of and answering requests for public records

Public comment starts at around the 31:10 mark in the below video:

    Oh my. This group just showed such ignorance of what they are suppose to be doing they should hide in shame. Good thing most were wearing masks to cover their identity.
