Normal Township. Salaries.
Why isn’t the positions/job titles listed? Pretty annoying.
Info doesn’t come from them
I didn’t see Village Of Stanford listed at all on the website
Did you look under Villages?
Super Hero Charmed club!- not! (not reality) but we get to pay for their lifestyles while most citizens get no pensions or benefits or raises and we watch them do crazy things and bad decisions all the time while exploiting the most vulnerable, poor and money flow in county. High School, College (waste), select jobs in area handed to them (fake career path) and then they live OUTSIDE of real world for life (and we get to pay for it all). The athletic and community leader – take awards and narratives go a long way.
Happy Holidays. (keep paying those fundraising and donating $ to NFP! And pay tax to boot! “For the Kids” and “Public Safety”- Just let them use you and your friends and family as Test Rats for their scalable project implementations and money funnel and “workforce” education.
People Wake UP! Projects and so called “governance” have taken a dirty turn in Central Illinois this state and they will walk away like Kings and Queens while the taxpayer and worker bee suffers.
Sad story- sick area.
Does anyone else see anything wrong with this? We are paying a retired District 87 administrator, Robert Nielson, $229,633.80 per year for the results he delivered? I can’t imagine what his services would have been worth if the majority of students were graduating with skills to move on to the next level.
We need to form our own local DOGE.

Good education/listen in how taxes work (Illinois/Texas and elsewhere) Central Illinois counties are not exempted and doing just this WRONG. Note Illinois and debt locally and state wide was always bankrupt – but the CAD Centralized Appraisal district wanted to look like “heros” saving schools and elites and communities. The property tax system/process (and corrupt political – “education/workforce” elite class involved (most of which get pensions for life, benefits and raises on our dime) say citizens just need “training or to understand the process”

They lie and are “public service” actors at your expense (GOP and Dens did nothing but rake the $ around) at expense of property owners and the most venerable in Illinois
Shame on all of you old and young leaders/thieves. You implement systems deceptively or wrong and use taxpayers/citizens as test rats. (calling yourselves innovators and leaders in area)
We saw for years the scam (just not hidden as quietly now hitting moat taxpayers – non elites (with u realized gain taxes and mis assessed property with a system that lacks integrity)
They lie and are actors at your expense (GOP and Dems did nothing but rake the $ around) at expense of property owners and the most venerable in Illinois
Shame in all involved! Your shady public/private partner deals get you all rich and a scam.
