May 2 2011 Meeting of the Forest Preserve Commission

Short and snappy 50 minute meeting was held with four commissioners absent.

A miscellaneous item of business will be adding work for the commissioners. It was announced a log ("Political Contact Log") must be maintained by all employees of the District. They are required to document all contacts made by, or on behalf of, politically-related persons or organizations regarding an employment action, involving a non-exempt employee or non-exempt job applicant (i.e., subject to the Fair Labor Standards Act . This will help with their compliance with the Shakman Decree.

Alice Brandon and Benjamin Cox of Friends of the Forest Preserves and John McCabe, the Forest Preserve District's Training and Safety Coordinator, were acknowledged for completing a Safety Training session.

This meeting was immediately followed by a meeting of the Cook County Board of Commissioners.
