First, Law Director Chris Walker explained that the board of trustees does not have the authority to put a tax levy on the ballot. But a passing of the below Resolution 2022-016 by the Edgerton Village Council would enable them to put the tax levy on the ballot.

This allows for a joint resolution between the St. Joseph Township trustees and the Village of Edgerton Council to go ahead with submitting to the electors a one mill renewal levy for five years, starting in tax year 2023, with the first collection in 2024.

The second reading of Resolution 2022-016 will be voted on at a joint meeting on Tuesday, July 5 at 6:45 p.m. The final reading will be voted on at a joint meeting on Tuesday, July 19, at 6:45 p.m.
