There were notes of progress in the September 9 regular meeting of the Thornton Township Board: The trustees talked. Some public commenters expressed thanks. And Supervisor Napoleon Harris spoke with Managing Editor Carole Sharwarko after the meeting. (Watch their interaction at the very end of the video.)
But in the intro to this meeting video, Carole and Melanie explain the fundamental understanding that the Harris Regime seems to be missing about members of the Thornton Township public.
