They made motions, heard public comment, discussed if they should ban the sale of soda throughout the village, (it failed 5-1) and if we should allow a cub scout fundraiser that had Village Resident and troop leader Paul Hollingsworth bungie jumping from the flagpole for $100. At first they thought it was a great idea, until I told them about some of the questions it would raise. (That motion needed the Mayor to break the tie 4-3 to allow the fundraiser). They banged on the gavel and one lucky young man got the key to the village!.
Currently training for the Chicago Marathon in October 2015. Enjoy my running diary. Sidenote:I was the first mayor in the United states to write an everyday blog, although I am no longer a mayor this is that blog.
