Brent Lonteen is out. He’s resigned as President of the Peoria Area Convention and Visitors Bureau. No one will say why.
Henry Holling is out. His job as interim City Manager ended Friday. Scott Moore takes over now.
EmergePeoria says that Craig Hullinger is out. However, I can get no independent verification of that. E-mails to Holling and Hullinger have gone unanswered. I have heard rumors, however, that if/when Hullinger does resign, the plan is for the city to hire him as a consultant. Sounds like a page out of the District 150 playbook to me.
Billy Dennis says Chuck Collins is out. No independent verification of that either. Even Billy says it’s just a rumor.
Summer is out. It ended a few days ago. Life goes on and the world goes ’round….

CJ – Add “the Cubs are out” – as division title holder. Here’s hoping Jim Thome and the Dodgers become the next World Series Champs!!
Surprised to see the rumor about Hullinger and I wonder why Collins would leave he’s been in Peoria forever. Lonteen should be gone after what he supposedly did.
What did he supposedly do?
Don’t know what Bravo is talking about, but Lonteen is a ggod person and very good in his job!
I was disappointed to hear that Lonteen got the job a couple years ago. It’s an important position for the area. It’s good to see his antics helped him screw up and lose his job.
I’m a little surprised his episode a couple weeks ago wasn’t talked about on the blogs.
Is someone going to enlighten us who are unaware of Brent’s antics and episodes?
Well from what a little birdie told me regarding Lonteen (C.J. feel free to delete;this is second hand info):
A situation in Vegas.
A situation at a golf outing.
A situation in St. Louis at Augie Busch’s house.
And others.
The press release announcing his resignation was written about a month ago; from then on the lawyers were hashing things out (hence all the “no comments” regarding this story). Supposedly Brent will land comfortably with a years severance, in the neighborhood of 100 grand.
