Ordinance 2020-04 Levy & Assessment of Taxes for the 2020-2021 FY
Motion by Trustee Damisch, seconded by Trustee Florian to approve Ordinance 2020-04. President Overstreet reviewed the Truth in Taxation Hearing which was held at 7:00 p.m., October 22, 2020 in the Village Hall. These three tax levies are directly tied to each three subdivisions; Sunset Views I, Sunset Views II, and Trail Ridge. Sunset Views II and Trail Ridge will both increase by less than 5%; not requiring a truth in taxation hearing. Only Sunset Views I will increase more than 5%, causing the need for a Truth in Taxation Hearing. No resident attended and the hearing closed at 7:15. President Overstreet met previously with the Sunset Views I Homeowner’s Association and the increase of just under 10% was discussed with their Board in detail. The tax levy rates have been based on an independent engineer’s road maintenance schedule from 2013. President Overstreet is considering an update to the 7-year old maintenance schedule.
No further discussion. Roll Call vote, motion passed unanimously.

No further discussion. Roll Call vote, motion passed unanimously.

Public Works Director Hoofnagle recapped the past year’s MFT Road Maintenance Project completed on Hanson Road and I.C.

Old Business
None
New Business
Trustee Florian asked President Overstreet to communicate with the HOAs of the subdivisions to the north, as many of those residents use Meadowview/Hanson for a cut-through to reach Rt 64. Residents walking or riding bikes use Meadowview Lane and Hanson Rd. Often these pedestrians are confronted with speeding, cut-through traffic; some of which are Village residents. Trustee Florian would like all Village residents to have respect for each other, especially while driving. His neighborhood has seen a turn-over in residents, bringing young families with small children to the area. Discussion followed on the past speed-calming devices & safety measures, along with future ideas that may be explored to help calm the speed on Hanson Road. Trustee Florian’s sentiment will be shared in the next Village newsletter as well.
Adjournment
Motion by Trustee Florian, seconded by Trustee Dell to adjourn at 7:20 p.m.
Voice vote, motion passed unanimously.
