City of Aurora Hosts Public Reception For Newly Proposed Aurora Civic Center Authority Board Appointments!
Aurora Civic Center Authority Board Public Reception
At the Tuesday, June 2 Committee of the Whole meeting, Mayor John Laesch formally proposed the appointment of four new members to the Aurora Civic Center Authority (ACCA) Board, who, along with two proposed reappointments, will comprise the most diverse, inclusive, and strategically skilled Board in the history of ACCA.
The City will be hosting a public reception at 5 P.M. on Tuesday, June 9 at City Hall (44 E. Downer Place), ahead of the regularly scheduled City Council meeting, allowing residents to meet and interact with the proposed appointees. An executive session will also commence later that evening, providing City Council members with the opportunity to speak with each appointee.
The four new appointments include Juan Sifuentes, the current Chairman of the East Aurora School District 131 Board; Diane Lantz, the former Executive Director of the Illinois Government Finance Officers Association; Nastasha Prunty, the President of Gospel Morale and Entertainment; and Christopher Childress, co-founder of Progressive Energy Group and the former President of Nicor Gas Services. Jonathan Hylton, the Principal of Clear Perspective Advisors, LLC, and Gina Moga, former City of Aurora Special Events Manager, serve as Mayor Laesch’s two proposed reappointments.
“Our goal with each of these appointments was to provide continuity between seasoned, experienced members of the Board, along with new voices who will better represent the demographics of Aurora,” Mayor Laesch said. “With these appointments now in place, our goal will be to continue to build on the excellent performances offered by the Paramount Theatre, Stolp Island Theatre, RiverEdge Park, and Copley Theatre, while expanding our entertainment portfolio to meet the interests of the most diverse city in the State of Illinois.”
The Council is expected to take a final vote on the proposed appointments during the Tuesday, June 23 City Council meeting.
