Morton Grove finalizes 2017 budget with no property tax increases and no fee increases

Morton Grove Village President Dan DiMaria said the proposed budget will maintain the same level of services without additional fees or increased property taxes, according to the Morton Grove Champion.

The village board is scheduled to vote on next year's budget at their December 12 meeting. The budget expands spending on pension funds, economic development and capital projects.

DiMaria said the village was able to limit expenses by closely monitoring costs and by having village workers take on multiple responsibilities. The budget includes new police radios and a new dump truck for the water and streets department.
