Always great catching up with my friend @MayorMooreWolfe, County Administrator Tammy Wilcox, Macon County Board Chair Kevin Greenfield and City Manager Scot Wrighton to discuss how we can work together to support the city of Decatur!
Congratulations to the City of @AccessDecatur on being awarded $10 million for Brush College Road Overpass project. “Thanks to @GovPritzker & @IDOT_Illinois Secretary Osman, this grant bridges the funding gap and turns this priority into a reality," said Decatur @MayorMooreWolfe.
Good morning from Decatur! @MayorMooreWolfe joked earlier this year that she likes it when @GovPritzker visits because “he shows up with money.” Well, that appears to be the case today, as the gov is here to announce new state funding for the Brush College Road overpass project.
Mayor Julie Moore Wolfe is the first to file for the municipal election. She’ll be at the top of the ballot. She filed more than 150 signatures (85 is the minimum), which are being examined here by City Clerk Kim Althoff.

According to the Illinois Municipal League, hundreds of local officials are “concerned” the new ethics disclosures are “too intrusive and personal” and some have considered resigning their posts over the requirements that they disclose personal financial information.
Besides tackling COVID-19, @MayorMooreWolfe said her priorities as @IMLLeague president will be pension reform and reigning in unfunded mandates.
