City of Carlyle Police Committee met March 16.
Here is the minutes provided by the committee:
The meeting was called to order by Chairman Jeremy Weh on Monday, March 16, 2020 at 6 p.m. at Carlyle City Hall located at 850 Franklin Street, Carlyle, IL 62231. Committee members present included Jeremy Weh, Don Perez, and Logan Speiser. Others present included Michael Jansen, Shannon Petrea, Kent Newkirk, John Hodapp, Scott Diekemper, Chief Mark Pingsterhaus, Mayor Judy Smith, Andy Brackett, and Martha Reinkensmeyer.

The first item on the agenda was raising the ordinance find for improper parking. The current fine is $15. Chief Pingsterhaus proposed raising to $75. This is the same amount of most of the ordinance fines in the City and the state statute for improperly parking in a handicap spot. Don Perez made a motion to have the ordinance written increasing the parking fine to $75 and sending it to Council. Logan Speiser seconded the motion. After a voice vote, all were found in favor.
The second item on the agenda was the FY ’21 budget. See the table at the end of the minutes. After reviewing the minutes, Don Perez made a motion to send the proposed budget onto the Finance Committee for review. Logan Speiser seconded the motion. After a voice vote, all were found in favor.
There was no old business.
The fourth item on the agenda was new business. A discussion was held on COVID-19 and how to handle Governor Pritzker’s mandate for closing restaurants and bars. Mayor Smith stated that she contacted all the bars and reinforced that liquor sales must stop at 9 p.m. on March 16th. The first offense for not complying will be a $750 fine. The second offense will be a $1,500 fine and the establishment’s liquor license will be revoked with the possibility of not getting it back. Mayor Smith added that all employees have been told to practice social distancing and to stay home if they are sick until they feel better. Those present agreed that it was a good idea to waive the need for a doctor’s note if an employee misses more than three days of work. Mayor Smith stated that Case Halstead Library has been closed to the public. Starting March 17th, City Hall and the Police Department will be closed to the public as well. All committee, board, and Council meetings have been cancelled, as well.
