APPOINT-ANDREW R. WEATHERFORD

This bill appoints Andrew R. Weatherford as the Public Administrator and Public Guardian for Moultrie County, a role responsible for managing estates and representing individuals who cannot manage their own affairs. The appointment, which begins on January 5, 2024, and ends on December 4, 2025, is made by Governor JB Pritzker with the consent of the Senate. Weatherford will receive expenses and a per diem rate for the position rather than a fixed annual salary. This action replaces the previous holder of the office, Kevin McDermott, and confirms Weatherford's nomination by Senator Sally J. Turner.
