Moline, IL...State Representative Rich Morthland (R-Cordova) was recently appointed to the Local Government Consolidation Committee. House Bill 268, which passed both Houses, created the Local Government Consolidation Commission Act of 2011 that provides legislative recommendations that would minimize duplicity and increase efficiency in local government bodies.

"My experience on the Rock Island County board offers the Committee a fresh perspective on local government. I thank Leader Cross for the opportunity to serve local governments in another capacity on the Local Government Consolidation Committee," said Morthland.
