Legislation approved by the General Assembly this week is expected to end the dispute between the DuPage County Board and DuPage County Clerk Jean Kaczmarek over unpaid bills. Legislation approved by the Illinois General Assembly this week should end the months-long stalemate between the DuPage County clerk and the DuPage County Board over competitive bidding and bill payment procedures.

The legislative changes apply to elected all county officials, including those with internal control of their offices, Conroy said. In addition to bills submitted for purchases made without competitive bidding, other invoices have been flagged by the county auditor’s office for not having the proper authorization from either Kaczmarek or Chief Deputy County Clerk Adam Johnson.

Johnson, speaking in an interview May 15, said the clerk’s office has been receiving conflicting information from various county officials.
