On October 29, 2013 the Lisle Park District Board of Commissioners
held a special meeting to discuss the Draft 2014 Budget.
The 2014 Draft Budget was not made readily available to the
public before the meeting. The 2014 budget was not posted in a board packet on the district website, it was not posted under "financial" documents on the district website and the executive director ignored a request for a copy of the draft budget just hours before the start of the Oct 29, 2013 budget meeting.
The next regular meeting of the Lisle Park Board is
scheduled for November 14, 2013. It is expected that the 2014 Budget will be
approved at the November Board Meeting as it has been in years past.
In December, the Board will consider approval of the 2013
Property Tax Levy Ordinance.
Historically,
the Park District Board meeting agendas and meeting minutes do not document the
amount of the tax levy. The 2013 Tax Levy Ordinance will be filed with the County
Clerk by Dec 24, 2013.
Despite falling property values, the Lisle Park District seeks the maximum possible property tax increase under the law called PTELL, commonly called the
"tax cap," every single year. Reports on the 2013 losses for golf and restaurant operations is due soon.
