It’s been two years since the Iroquois County regional planning board has had a meeting and almost all of its members terms have expired. Those are a couple of reasons the board will be disbanded. The commission was formed to help with zoning issues and was supposed to meet monthly. The commission has now outlived its usefulness since its formation, because zoning issues are now initially fielded by the zoning board of appeals and there is no need for commissioners who represent different areas of the county.
