appropriation ordinance will be placed on First Reading
on March 5, 2007 and Second Reading on March 19, 2007;
the appropriation order must be filed with Cook County
by March 31, 2007.
City Manager Niemeyer stated that the proposed 2007
budget recommends a 2 % increase in the City's municipal
telecommunication tax for a total o.f 3%; for this
increase to take effect on July 1, 2007, the Illinoi s
Department of Revenue needs the approved ordinance by
March 20, 2007; the Committee of the Whole on February
8, 2007 voted 4 3 to implement the recommended
increase.
Alderman Sayad stated that he is opposed to this tax
increase; people have told him that they are going to
pass this increase on to their customers; the money we
would need for the budget could be taken from our
surplus funds; we don't need this tax increase.
Alderman Brookman stated that she is opposed to
increasing the tax; this is a revenue source that is not
needed; we need to see how this will affect our business
community; in the past the Chamber of Commerce has
opposed this tax.
Alderman Murphy stated that everyone is going to pay for
this tax not just businesses; she is opposed to this
tax; it will impact seniors the most.
Mr. Brian Burkross, 2133 Webster Lane, addressed the
Committee of the Whole stating that he doesn't think the
aldermen can vote on this without talking about the
whole budget; it would do the residents a disservice.
Mr. Dion Kendrick, 943 Webster Lane, addressed the
Committee of the Whole stating that businesses don't pay
taxes, consumers pay taxes; businesses are just conduits
to pass through taxes.
Alderman Christiansen stated that this tax will be
better than increasing the property tax; we are the only
community in the area at 1%; most other communities are
at 6%; Moodys looks at our ability to pay off bonds not
just what we have in reserves; he is in favor of this
tax.
Alderman Argus stated that you can't take this tax off
your income tax like you can property taxes.
Moved by Christiansen, seconded by Becker, to concur
with Staff recommendation and recommend to the City
Council that the City's Municipal Telecommunications Tax
be increased 2% to a total of 3 %; and Ordinance M-6-07
