There is $4.2 million in the Motor Fuel Tax fund for the annual road resurfacing and two (2) additional smaller road projects, as well as an additional $375,000 for sidewalk replacement and continuation of the ADA compliance conversion. In total, the 2019-2020 proposed budget is $81,984,409.00. 72% is for operations, including the general fund, water service fund, and internal service fund; 16% is for capital improvements; 7% is for debt service; and 5% is for police pension. The Village's financial condition is stable, and the Village has been able to maintain the fund balance level. The full budget will be on the Village's website at the end of the month.
