Utility tax amendment gets first reading in Richton Park
Morell Reeves presents a proposal to require monthly utility tax returns instead of quarterly filings. The ordinance would demand monthly payments and allow adjustments based on actual taxable gross receipts, with an estimated annual impact of about 310,000 dollars and potential interest gains. Trustee Grisamore argued the change could speed funds, while Village officials plan further feasibility talks with the utilities and accountants.
