CAT Tracks for December 6, 2012
FILING PETITIONS FOR SCHOOL BOARD

On a whim, I paid a visit to the CSD #1 website this morning and found the following announcement:


ATTENTION

Monday, December 3, 2012, Governor Pat Quinn signed a bill that will push back the deadline for candidates running for the local school board to file their nominating petitions. SB 3338 moves back the deadline for filing petitions for school board seats until December 26, 2012 at 5:00 p.m. Previously, the date for the deadline of filing the petitions was December 24th at 5:00 p.m. Due to this change, the district office will be closed on Monday, December 24th, and will be closed for the legal holiday, Tuesday, December 25th.

The dates for filing nominating papers are now Monday, December 17, 2012 (beginning at 8:00 a.m.) through Wednesday, December 26th (ending at 5:00 p.m.) with no filing on Monday December 24th or Tuesday, December 25th.
