The McLean County, Illinois Justice Committee met on November 4, 2026. It approved the consent agenda, including prior meeting minutes and payment of bills and transfers. The committee also approved a budget-neutral $15,000 transfer within the Sheriff’s Department budget from police equipment to fleet expenses for unexpected vehicle repairs and fuel, and an emergency appropriation providing $35,000 in spending authority for Court Services peer-support contract services; that contract had previously been approved by the County Board on October 16, 2025.

The committee approved an ongoing contract with Scott Droszewski to provide special-assistance State’s Attorney services for the veterans, drug, and recovery specialty courts. The amount was not stated; the State’s Attorney said it was a slight increase from the prior year and could end if the office becomes fully staffed. It also approved a bid and proposal to purchase and install additional morgue cabinets, with funding to be covered by reallocating available funds and possible asset-forfeiture funds; no vendor or amount was identified. A public commenter called for measures to prevent gun violence in public housing, but no committee action was taken on that request.
