West Chicago City Council met Sept. 15, 2025. Opening remarks focused on local ICE enforcement that detained 15 residents and prompted community fear. The council heard a general-fund budget presentation (revenue updates, a $0.8M–$1.1M deficit after cuts, and options including a grocery tax or sales-tax increase), approved several consent items and grants, approved an outdoor-storage special-use permit tied to reuse of the former General Mills site, and discussed restoring the city clerk position before adjourning to closed session.
