Schillerstrom calls O’Hare vote legal
DuPage County Board Chairman Robert Schillerstrom said Friday the County Board did not violate state law when it adopted a resolution last week supporting expansion of O’Hare International Airport.
“We feel very strongly that we complied with the law,” Schillerstrom said during a taping of WBBM-AM’s “At Issue” program.
Mayors from six communities near O’Hare have complained that the vote violated the Illinois Open Meetings Act because the resolution was not on the County Board’s published agenda.
The board approved the resolution 15-2, reversing years of opposition to O’Hare’s expansion.
The program is scheduled to be broadcast Sunday at 9:30 a.m. and 9:30 p.m.
