The Barrington Hills Park District Board of Commissioners will meet at 7:00 PM tomorrow at our Riding Center located at 361 Bateman Rd. A copy of their agenda can be viewed here.
In addition to discussing regular business, the board is also holding a public hearing regarding their “Combined Annual Budget and Appropriations Ordinance.” A copy of that separate agenda can be downloaded here.
It will be interesting to learn if they approve the maximum levy increase allowable as they have done in the past. As with 220 teachers and admin they always cry poor!
Just an average Joanne ; It’s called “Tax to the Max” and non-equestrian be damned. They enjoy a pretty good deal – 90 % (non-equestrian) of the taxpayers supporting 10% (equestrian) of the taxpayers in pursuing their hobby – but then the non-equestrians should be content with a few tennis courts at Countryside School! And are fees being collected at Park District facilities? Heck, easier to raise taxes and keep the free party going!
