Resident Ken Anderson, 541 Sycamore Drive, stepped up to the podium to address the Village Board.
Mr. Anderson had some concerns with the increase in taxes and asked if the TIF was necessary and why
the residents were not informed earlier that the TIF was being considered. He is concerned that the
information is not getting to the constituents in a timely manner whether it be Village business or
another governmental entity such as District 59 with reference to the recent discussion on the
Administration Building.
Mayor Johnson thanked Mr. Anderson for expressing his concerns and stated that he cannot speak for
other government entities but can assure him that Elk Grove Village is a very transparent government.

This TIF is nothing new. Busse Farm has been vacant for a long time and the TIF will freeze taxes to
bring in companies that will create jobs and bring tax revenue to the Village. Mayor Johnson gave
examples of how TIF Districts have been beneficial to the community. The Mayor stated that the
Village is proud of how well they communicate with constituents to provide information through
quarterly newsletters, the website, and Committee of the Whole meetings to keep everyone informed.
As far as property taxes, the Finance Director is working on getting a breakdown from Cook County.
In regards to the Administration Building, Mayor Johnson stated that the Board voted at the last meeting
to allow the Administration Building but since there were so many concerns for the Commissary, the
Board voted not to approve the Commissary portion of the Ordinance.
Motion to approve Regular Agenda item "a."
