CHAIR'S REPORT / PRESENTATIONS  
Chair Conroy made the following remarks:  
Today’s an important day on our calendar as the budget resolutions are on the agenda. Thanks to  
each of you and all of the elected officials who have worked with our staff as we have  
deliberated on the many issues and priorities that budget-making brings to the table.  
Of course, we are fortunate. DuPage County is in an exceedingly strong financial position.  
Our debt levels are very low.  
The budget you will consider today is balanced…and makes important investments in our  
community.  
As you’ve heard me say many times, we can be fiscally responsible AND take care of people.  
This spending plan reflects our values. It also makes critical infrastructure investments which  
will take the pressure off upcoming budgets to keep our County’s programs sustainable. Our  
careful planning will allow the County to provide an outstanding level of service to our  
community while building a strong financial foundation for the future. We will do all this,  
keeping our property tax rate flat at about 2% of the average homeowner’s tax bill.  
I ask for your support of this budget plan. I am proud of the work of this Board and our staff…  
who always put the people of DuPage County first.  
Speaking of our staff, I would like to ask for the Board’s support on a matter directly related to  
our County’s workers. December 26th falls on a Friday this year. At our next County Board  
meeting I would like the Board to consider my request to amend the 2025 holiday schedule,  
making the day after Christmas, December 26th 2025, a holiday for our employees. That  
resolution will be on the December 9th meeting agenda.  
Finally, to our outstanding staff, especially those who will report to work over the Thanksgiving  
weekend, please know we are grateful to you. I wish you all a happy and safe Thanksgiving.

COUNTY BOARD - CHILDRESS  
8.A.  
Resolution Censuring DuPage County Clerk Jean Kaczmarek  
WHEREAS, the DuPage County Board is entrusted with upholding fiscal  
responsibility and transparency on behalf of nearly one million residents; and  
WHEREAS, every elected official has a duty to act as a responsible steward of  
taxpayer dollars, follow the law, and cooperate fully with oversight authorities to preserve  
public trust; and  
WHEREAS, DuPage County Clerk Jean Kaczmarek has willfully refused to comply  
with the County Board’s established system of accounting, obstructed lawful financial  
oversight, and violated state mandates governing public bidding and fiscal transparency; and  
WHEREAS, under 55 ILCS 5/5-1022, all Countywide elected officials with control  
of internal operations, which includes the DuPage County Clerk, must publicly solicit  
competitive bids for contracts greater than $30,000 to ensure taxpayer dollars are spent  
efficiently and to secure the greatest possible value from the lowest responsible bidder, as a  
safeguard against favoritism and abuse of discretion; and  
WHEREAS, under 55 ILCS 5/3-1005, the DuPage County Auditor is explicitly  
charged with maintaining a complete and accurate record of all contracts entered by the  
County Board and its authorized officers, ensuring transparency and legal compliance in the  
expenditure of public funds; and  
WHEREAS, the Illinois Attorney General has affirmed that the Auditor’s authority  
under 55 ILCS 5/3-1005 extends to auditing and reviewing the operating expenses of the  
County Clerk; and  
WHEREAS, despite multiple formal requests, the DuPage County Auditor has not  
received essential financial documentation, including contracts and invoices, for certain  
goods and services procured by the Clerk’s Office, obstructing lawful oversight and violating  
basic standards of public accountability; and  
WHEREAS, Clerk Jean Kaczmarek’s persistent defiance of the DuPage County  
Auditor’s lawful requests for documentation has impeded the Auditor’s ability to perform his  
statutory duties and has disrupted County operations; and  
WHEREAS, as a direct result of Clerk Jean Kaczmarek’s continued refusals to  
comply, vendors serving her office have gone unpaid or experienced significant delays in  
payment, jeopardizing the County’s credibility with service providers and exposing taxpayers  
to reputational and financial risk; and  
WHEREAS, the DuPage County State’s Attorney has been compelled to initiate  
litigation against Clerk Jean Kaczmarek, resulting in the accumulation of nearly $200,000 in  
legal fees - borne by taxpayers - solely due to her refusal to follow the law; and  
WHEREAS, these fees continue to grow while Clerk Jean Kaczmarek remains  
noncompliant, showing a blatant disregard for fiscal prudence and state statute; and  
WHEREAS, Clerk Jean Kaczmarek has repeatedly failed to follow standard County  
budgeting practices, including submitting a timely and responsible budget proposal for her  
office, and she has declined or refused to meet with Finance staff to discuss her office’s  
finances, undermining the collaborative budgeting process and impeding effective financial  
planning for the County as a whole; and  
WHEREAS, Clerk Jean Kaczmarek recently acknowledged a significant shortfall in  
her office’s Fiscal Year 2025 budget that will result in her office running out of funds, while  
Clerk Jean Kaczmarek authorized hundreds of thousands of dollars in unbudgeted salary  
increases, forcing the Board to confront the consequences of her reckless financial  
management; and  
WHEREAS, Clerk Jean Kaczmarek’s actions have pushed her office to the brink of  
exhausting its budget for critical operating needs; and  
WHEREAS, for years, County Board members have publicly raised alarms about  
Clerk Jean Kaczmarek’s procurement processes for election-related equipment; and  
WHEREAS, this pattern of financial mismanagement, refusal to follow established  
procedures, and disregard for basic planning has now moved beyond internal dysfunction;  
and  
WHEREAS, Clerk Jean Kaczmarek is placing personal obstinance above public  
duty, and her continued conduct reflects not a single mistake, but an ongoing pattern of  
negligence, defiance, and poor judgment that has wasted taxpayer dollars, damaged the  
County’s reputation, and undermined public trust in County government.  
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the DuPage County Board does  
hereby formally and publicly censure DuPage County Clerk Jean Kaczmarek for her refusal  
to comply with County fiscal policies, her disregard of Illinois competitive bidding laws, her  
obstruction of lawful oversight, and her reckless mismanagement of the Clerk’s Office, all of  
which have disrupted County operations, wasted taxpayer dollars, and brought discredit to  
the Office of the Clerk and DuPage County; and  
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the DuPage County Board directs the County  
Clerk to record this censure resolution in the official minutes of the DuPage County Board  
meeting, in full and without alteration, as a matter of public record and institutional  
accountability.
