ReplyIs this really news worthy? I don't even think that it is even topical given how minor the whole incident was.

ReplyOne downside of township consolidation into municipalities to consider is that most municipalities are basically on a hiring freeze. Cook co wants all the unincorporated areas to be annexed but the towns don't want them due to cost. FYI I'm in favor of consolidation as it is the logical route, just wait for the towns to squeak.
