Dolton trustees appointed a mayor pro tempore Monday night to serve in place of Mayor Tiffany Henyard if she refuses to execute her duties.
Trustee Jason House was voted in as mayor pro tem and could sign off on village business and pay bills in Henyard's absence. Henyard was not present at Monday's special board meeting."This is not a replacement. This ordinance is strictly in the refusal or inability for the mayor to do her duties, an appointed senior trustee to step in and make sure the necessary documents are signed and business moves forward," House said during Monday night's trustee meeting.
All of this comes as five subpoenas were served to the village asking for payments, expense reimbursements and credit card expenditures involving Henyard and her top assistant, Keith Freeman. Subpoenas have also been served in Thornton Township, where Henyard is the supervisor.Those subpoenas revealed the burgeoning scope of the federal criminal investigation into Henyard.
