Staff reports: budget draft includes incubator funds; village to receive donated lots; JBBL seeks Hiller Park as home field
Summary
Staff reported a draft budget that includes an initial $55,000 figure for the incubator, outlined an agreement to accept four donated parcels pending tax paperwork, and said JBBL wants to adopt Hiller Park as a home field and begin maintenance improvements.
In staff reports the village administrator said a first draft of the budget will go to the finance committee next week and that the incubator initial figure (about $55,000) will be incorporated for committee review.
Staff also reported progress on property donations: legal counsel is preparing documents for four parcels, with an agreement to pay 2025 taxes as part of the transfer and to file for village tax‑exemption at a future board meeting.
Separately, representatives of a youth baseball organization (JBBL) asked permission to make Hiller Park their home field and offered to perform and pay for certain improvements (field pins, prep work). Staff said they will return with a formal proposal and a draft agreement detailing village and JBBL commitments.
