Tensions in Thornton Township have reached a boiling point as trustees Chris Gonzalez and Carmen Carlile announced they would boycott a key board meeting called by Supervisor Tiffany Henyard. This decision stems from disputes over lapses in the township's insurance policies, which have halted critical operations and left residents vulnerable. Henyard, accused of withholding vital information and attempting to manipulate the board’s composition, faces mounting criticism. The trustees highlighted Henyard’s failure to resolve liability insurance issues and her alleged political maneuvers to secure board dominance. Without insurance coverage, the township remains exposed to lawsuits, further complicating governance. Trustees have demanded accountability and transparency but remain at an impasse with Henyard’s administration. Meanwhile, township services are paralyzed, leaving residents in limbo as political gridlock escalates. The controversy underscores concerns about governance, accountability, and fiscal responsibility within Thornton Township.
