Joe Schatteman will open our meeting with a report on Springfield. Mr. Schatteman is the Deputy Legislative Director for the Illinois Municipal League. For two decades he has been working in Springfield in areas of municipal concern. He is an expert in municipal policy and legislative strategy. He also has extensive experience moving (or killing) bills though the legislative process. Throughout his career, he has focused on protecting municipal authority, stopping mandates and protecting and defending against threats to municipal revenue.
