May 27, 2026 Tazewell County Board Meeting

The Tazewell County Board held a meeting on May 27, 2026, where key procurement-related discussions included the approval of contracts for rekeying and upgrading security systems in county buildings such as the courthouse and the Mackenzie building. The board addressed concerns about master key issuance and the integration of electronic key card access with physical locks. Additionally, the board debated the county clerk's salary for the next four years, ultimately voting to maintain the current salary with no increase, despite a proposed 3% annual raise amendment that failed. The meeting also covered appointments to various boards and committees, and the scheduling of future meetings. Public comments included discussions on a referendum about separating from Cook County to form a new state, but no direct procurement actions were related to this topic.
