Column: Whiteside board members quieter than Lee County’s
I started covering the Whiteside and Lee county boards in January 2011. By April of that year, I knew the names and faces of all 28 Lee County Board members but one.
The exception was Kathy Hummel, who hasn’t attended a County Board meeting since March 2010 because of health reasons (but who won’t resign). I’ve never seen her.
Other than Hummel, the last member with whom I became familiar was Jim Wentling, a Dixon Republican.
