Judge Rules Against Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard in Village Meeting Dispute
In a recent court ruling, Cook County Judge has sided against Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard in a dispute over the venue and control of village board meetings. The judge decided that the village board can continue to hold its meetings at a park district building, which offers more space than the traditional village hall.
The decision is a setback for Mayor Henyard, who had been seeking to regain some control over the meetings. Despite the ruling, the judge specified that Mayor Henyard must preside over these meetings, ensuring her involvement in the proceedings.
This development comes at a critical time for Mayor Henyard, who has recently announced her bid for re-election. The announcement has been met with mixed reactions, particularly given the scandals that have surrounded her tenure as mayor.
The move to hold meetings at the park district building is seen as a way to accommodate more attendees and provide a more spacious environment for discussions and public participation.
