The meeting focused on a continuing disciplinary matter involving a Lombard firefighter. The Board did not issue a final decision at this meeting. Instead, it set February 9, 2026 as the deadline for the parties’ written closing arguments and delayed a decision on the unpaid leave motion until the next hearing. For residents, that means the case is still open and another hearing is expected before any final outcome.
