Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The biggest action was support for temporarily raising the Police Department’s authorized staffing level to 49 officers because current staffing is strained by leaves and other absences. Committee members also backed a nearly $2.2 million bill list for city expenses. In addition, they approved a small wording change to the grocery tax ordinance requested by the Illinois Department of Revenue; the change is meant to keep the city in compliance and does not change the tax rate.
