ALGONQUIN TOWNSHIP – Lawyers representing elected officials have billed Algonquin Township more than $312,000 in the past six months, and legal costs are expected to climb, with taxpayers footing the bills. That's more than the $299,000 the township has in its general assistance fund to help low-income residents meet basic living requirements. "It's just a crying shame," said township Trustee Dan Shea, who sees no end in sight for ballooning legal fees.
