Fox River Grove board declines revenue‑reduction offsets to this year’s property‑tax levy
Summary
The Village Board discussed potential revenue‑reduction offsets to the draft property‑tax levy for December but by consensus decided not to pursue offsets this year, citing prior use of offsets and recent expense increases.
Fox River Grove — During the Nov. 12 special meeting the Village Board discussed possible revenue‑reduction offsets intended to reduce inflationary adjustments under consideration for the December property‑tax levy. After discussion the board’s consensus was not to pursue offsets this year.
Trustees noted that revenue‑reduction offsets have been approved in past years. Given recent increases in village expenses, board members agreed using offsets now would not be prudent. No formal motion to adopt offsets was made; the levy and any adjustments remain scheduled for consideration at the board’s December meeting.
