The property tax burden in the Village of Lisle has shifted significantly since 2001 when Joe Broda was first elected Mayor.
Back in 2001, residential property owners carried 51% of the total property tax burden and commercial and industrial property owners carried 49% of the tax burden.
In 2013, residential property owners carried 62% of the total property tax burden in the Village while commercial and industrial property owners only carried 38% of the tax burden.
This overall 22% shift in the property tax burden to residential property owners is due to both a reduction in the total assessed valuation for commercial and industrial property and an increase in the total assessed valuation of residential property in the Village.
Sadly, under Mayor Broda (now in his 4th term of office), the Village of Lisle has been focused development of new residential. The commercial and industrial tax base has eroded leaving the residents to pick up the slack and pay more and more tax.
