Bloomington Won t Contest Court Ruling Over Open Meeting Violation

Two people cross the street in downtown Bloomington. Bloomington will not further challenge an Illinois appeals court ruling that the city violated the state s Open Meetings Act in a closed-door meeting in 2017, City Manager Tim Gleason said Tuesday. The Fourth District Appellate Court in Springfield determined in April the city council went into closed session to discuss the political rather than legal consequences of the city s plan to pull out of a tax-sharing agreement with the Town of Normal. The council stated it went into closed session in February 2017 to discuss pending or probable litigation. According to the appeals court, there was little discussion of a lawsuit. Then-Mayor Tari Renner said after the meeting he didn’t anticipate a lawsuit over the city’s intentions to dissolve the Metro Zone agreement, a west-side tax-sharing deal the Twin Cities had for decades.

At Swearing In, Bloomington Mayor Mwilambwe Vows to Tackle Divisions

Emily Bollinger / WGLT History was made Saturday morning as Mboka Mwilambwe was sworn in as the next mayor of Bloomington. As he recited the oath of office on the lawn of the Bloomington Center for the Performing Arts, Mwilambwe became the city’s first Black mayor. In his first official remarks as mayor, Mwilambwe described an agenda predicated on inclusion and cooperation. “A house divided cannot stand,” Mwilambwe said, quoting Lincoln. “I have seen the toll that divisiveness has taken on us.” During his campaign, Mwilambwe cited a growing polarization as one of the most pressing issues faced by the community.

Appeals Court: Bloomington Violated Open Meetings Act

Eric Stock / WGLT Originally published on April 29, 2021 6:06 pm An Illinois appellate court has ruled the City of Bloomington violated the Open Meetings Act in 2017 when the city council convened behind closed doors to discuss terminating a tax-sharing agreement with Normal. The appellate court ruled the city council did not follow the rules for a closed session because it did not discuss “probable or imminent litigation,” which was the stated reason for convening the meeting. Bloomington was exploring whether to end the Metro Zone agreement, a west-side tax-sharing pact the city ultimately terminated. According to the court, there was no pending litigation for the city to discuss. Bloomington Mayor Tari Renner told reporters after the closed session the city didn’t anticipate a lawsuit. That prompted then-McLean County State’s Attorney Jason Chambers to ask the AG’s office for a ruling on the legality of the meeting.
