Mayor Tiffany Henyard Defies Trustees’ Postponement in Dolton Showdown

Tensions flared in Dolton as Mayor Tiffany Henyard defied the village trustees' decision to postpone a crucial board meeting. Despite lacking a quorum, Henyard proceeded, appointing a new village attorney and administrator, actions labeled as illegal by critics. Henyard's attorney argued the trustees violated Illinois law by failing to provide proper notice for the postponement, accusing them of hindering her duties. The dispute highlights deeper divisions within Dolton's government, as Henyard contends with lawsuits and recall efforts. The Illinois Attorney General also weighed in, finding violations of the Open Meetings Act. Henyard maintains that she's fighting a smear campaign, urging residents to "research everyone." This clash underscores ongoing governance challenges in Dolton, raising questions about leadership and legal compliance.
