DIXON – The Lee County Board is set to consider a resolution declaring the county as a “nonsanctuary county” during its meeting Thursday.

“Lee County, by declaring itself a nonsanctuary county, pledges and dedicates its limited resources to its residents in need and, absent emergency circumstances, Lee County will not provide taxpayer-funded services or dollars toward the immigration crisis,” part of the proposed resolution reads.

The County Board meets at 6 p.m. in the third floor boardroom of the Old Lee County Courthouse, 112 E. Second St., Dixon.
