Oswego Village Committee of the Whole met on 2025-10-25 for a budget workshop that began with a Culture & Arts Commission presentation (lantern walk, utility box painting, free libraries) and then examined capital and operating funds, major projects (Wolf's Crossing, Lake Michigan water connection), staffing adds, and options for a roughly $1 million surplus including a proposed grocery-tax-funded credit to water customers. The board reached consensus to include a 2% reduction in the property tax levy in the 2026 budget and to discuss applying surplus funds toward water-bill credits and other priorities at a follow-up meeting.
