DeWitt County Board Approves Expenditures

It was a night of quick work for the DeWitt County Board Thursday night.
 
At the monthly meeting, approval of spending and appointments was the only major business at hand.
 
The DeWitt County Highway Department had a project in Rutledge Township approved. Highway Engineer Mark Mathon says a 60-inch diameter culvert is being repaired with concrete cloth on Pine Road.
 
The cost of the concrete cloth was just over $2000.
 
Additionally Thursday night, Mathon's salary was approved. 
 
Finally Thursday evening, the County Clerk requested their office be closed for business that is not election related on election night, November 8. 
 
County Clerk Dana Smith says the office becomes inundated with election business, especially with new regulations passed down from the State of Illinois in recent years.
 
The DeWitt County Board October meeting will include the Fiscal Year 2017 budget being put on file.
