Effingham County Clerk Kerry J Hirtzel reminds those who haven’t filed their Statement of Economic Interest to do so. The filing deadline is May 1 for citizens who are to file this Statement.

This filing is for anyone who serves as a member of a governing board who makes decisions regarding the economics of the entity they represent. Those who are required to file have been notified and sent a form to file with the County Clerk.

After the May 1 deadline a statutory $15.00 fee will be charged when filing. After May 15 the fee is $100 per day plus the $15.00 filing fee. In accordance with Illinois State Statutes any person who does not file by May 31 is subject to forfeiture of their position.
