Aldermen Wilshire and the Board of Aldermen:
This email is an official request to the Board of Aldermen to take action on City Clerk
Lovering's letter sent to Board members on December 17, 2021 re Alderwoman Kelly. This
email requires more than just procedural actions of placing this email on file.
The December 28, 2021 Agenda for the Board of Aldermen meeting, contained the letter sent
by the City Clerk to inform the President of the Board of Alderwoman Kelly being absent more
than three times for regular board meetings. Aldermen O’Brien motioned to put this item on
indefinite hold.
Per NRO-5-6: any member of the Board of Aldermen that is recorded absent at three or more
regular meetings of the board, the City Clerk shall transmit a communication stating that fact to
the Board of Aldermen, and the stipend for that quarter shall be withheld.
This letter needs to come before the board again. However, this time I request that all Aldermen
that have done business with Alderwoman Kelly company (Kelly Creative also doing business
as The Do it Left Project) abstain from voting on this item. As you can see below it will show a
direct conflict of interest on the part of the Aldermen that had used Alderwoman Kelly’s
company for campaign literature.
Clearly, some of our Aldermen have financial ties to each other, It appears that
Alderwoman Kelly's marketing company does a lot of work for some of the other Aldermen and
other city officials. Perhaps the work required to support the Aldermen prevented Alderwoman
