In 2016, Barry Becker, a former alderman, was named as Jobe s replacement.
“I have known Senator Turner for decades, from her time of service on the County Board, City Council, and now as Senator for Springfield and Sangamon County, Langfelder said in the statement. Even though she is leaving her seat at the City Council, we look forward to continuing our work together on issues important to Springfield.”
Manar of Bunker Hill resigned his Senate seat on Jan. 17 to become a senior adviser to Gov. JB Pritzker.
Sangamon County Board Chairman Andy Van Meter said Turner has been a key leader on projects like the relocation of the Sangamon County Department of Public Health, the 10th Street Rail Project and the formation of the Springfield/Sangamon Growth Alliance and the development of downtown campus facilities for the University of Illinois Springfield and Southern Illinois University.
The struggles continued for the Pella Christian basketball teams last night at Newton, as the Eagles were swept for a third straight doubleheader. The Cardinals won the girls game 52-44 and the boys game 74-62 in a twinbill heard live on the KRLS2 stream at www.kniakrls.com.
In a see-saw girls game, P.C. jumped out to a seven point first quarter lead, saw Newton pull even at halftime, fell down by nine in the third quarter, then rallied back to a tie early in the fourth quarter. Poor rebounding, bad free throw shooting, foul trouble and injuries finally caught up to the Eagles as Newton pulled away to win by eight. Head Coach Brad Engbers wasn’t making any excuses after the game.

Spike Mendelsohn’s concept for his plant-based, vegan fast food chain PLNT Burger came from relatively simple origins: his household culinary dynamics. “My wife is vegan and actually inspired me to go more vegan,” says Mendelsohn. “At any point, I’m probably 80-percent vegan right now.”
The reality TV-minted celebrity chef, who also chairs the DC Food Policy Council, opened PLNT Burger last March within Whole Foods in Silver Spring. Despite launching right before the pandemic hit, PLNT Burger has continued to grow, opening outlets in six other Whole Foods, including the large, gleaming new location in Shaw. A national expansion is planned for later in the year.
Some have suggested that Ivanka may consider a political run of her own in 2024 and analysts believe she could win the Florida seat.
This would enable her to make a bid for the presidency if Mr Trump doesn’t try to run for office too.
Others believe she will return to working in real estate and on her fashion line, which she did prior to the 2016 US election.
In the wake of Mr Trump’s loss to President Biden – by 306 Electoral College votes to his 232 – his relationship with Ivanka is being reexamined.
After the defeat, Ivanka tweeted that it was “the honour of a lifetime” to serve the former US President and she was “proud” of what she achieved.
