On July 13, 2009, the Village Council adopted a maximum millage rate of $2.447 for fiscal year 2009-10, a slightly lower than the current rate. This is not final; rather, it is a maximum working rate that the Village administration asked the Council to consider while the budget is being finalized over the next two months. Please review the explanation of "Millage" and its role in the overall budget process.
