Matteson trims taxes with balanced budget moves
The Village Board abated over 700000 of the 1993 village tax levy for four bond issues to be paid from existing funds through 1995. Bonds include a 2.9 million utility extension, 2.5 million water refunding, 140000 Ok Plank Road Trail, and 600000 park improvement. Abatement keeps homeowner tax impact low, with potential levy avoidance if not abated. Future payments rely on development fees and water fund revenues.
