Dolton, Ill. (ECWd) –
The Village of Dolton Board of Trustees will hold a special meeting on Monday, August 5, 2024, at Dolton Village Hall at 6:15 p.m. – that is, if Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard doesn’t get childish again and lock the trustees out while threatening them with trespass arrest forcing them into the parking lot for the meeting, or invent another power outage which only effects the village hall building.
There is a regular meeting scheduled to follow this special meeting, even though the special meeting agenda is the only agenda listed on the village website for August 5th..
