The latest, from Oct 27: The agenda schedules a resolution for the town president to enter into an agreement for group term and voluntary term life insurance with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois for certain employees. It is listed for consideration only, so the award is still pending the October 27, 2026 meeting. This points to an employee benefits decision with a named incumbent or intended provider.
