Gov. Quinn Appoints Chicago Heights Mayor to Toll Highway Authority
Posted on 2011-10-26 11:08:03 CST
David Gonzalez's appointment to the Illinois Toll Highway Authority came as a result of his accounting background.
Gov. Pat Quinn appointed several individuals to the state's more than 320 boards and commissions Monday.
Quinn filled positions on several university boards, the state Gaming Board, the Illinois Racing Board, the Pollution Control Board and several others.
Chicago Heights Mayor David Gonzalez made the governor's long list of executive appointments, landing a seat on the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority.
"(Gonzalez) will serve as a strong voice for the South Suburbs, an area expected to experience significant growth," a press release from the governor's office stated.
(to view the rest of this posting, please click-on the "read more..." link).
The mayor's background in accounting and experience as Chicago Heights Park District superintendent, as well as police and fire commissioner, were cited as valuable assets in his appointment.
Gonzalez rounds out eight appointments to the Toll Highway Authority, which is a board aimed at overseeing the continued growth of the Illinois Tollway.
Other area appointments include Flossmoor's Brian Mitchell joining the Governor's State University board and Tinley Park's Rocco Donahue joining the Illinois State University board.
