Boom-Year Money Is Not a Budget Plan.

Vote for Stephen J. Balich and Republicans who will stop Democrat Socialism Springfield's land-use power grab gets the headlines, but the quieter budget risk is how the county pays its bills. A large share of Will County's revenue comes from sales tax, and sales tax is the most unpredictable dollar a county collects. When families tighten their belts, when a big retailer closes its doors, when more buying moves online, that revenue falls fast....

Five Questions Every Will County Candidate Should Answer Before November 3

Five Questions Every Will County Candidate Should Answer Before November 3 Campaign season is full of slogans. Lower taxes. Safer communities. Better government. Protect families. Fine. But slogans are not answers. With November 3 approaching, voters deserve direct, written answers from every candidate seeking Will County office. Not vague promises. Not carefully rehearsed talking points. Not silence after the election....

Two Documents the County Published That Prove My Point About Assessors Being Stopped from Doing their Job

I have reported that in Jackson Township, proposed commercial and industrial increases were blocked while residential values were adjusted. Separately, Will County officials testified in Springfield in support of HB 5086, a bill that would give the county assessment office greater authority over some township assessment work. Two documents make the case. Both are public. Both are the county’s own....

Three Offices, One Bill: The County Alignment Behind the Assessment Power Grab

What is the cost of a multiplier to everyone in Will County, simply to be able to say township assessors are not doing their jobs correctly? That is the first question. It deserves an answer in dollars and documents, not slogans. In the first two posts in this series, I described what I reported to the County Board’s Executive Committee: a Jackson Township assessor told me she tried to bring commercial and industrial properties to full value but was told by the Supervisor of Assessments’ office that she could not....

Let Them Do Their Jobs: Residents Say End the County Power Grab

Residents want the County to let their elected assessors do their jobs and end this county power grab. I agree. Here is the contradiction I want every taxpayer to understand: assessors say they were told they could not assess commercial and industrial properties as they believed they should. Then county officials went to Springfield and supported a bill arguing that township assessors were not doing that work....

I Cut the Homer Township Tax Levy Four Years in a Row , and Increased Services. Here’s How.

I Cut the Homer Township Tax Levy Four Years in a Row , and Increased Services. Here's How. They told you there was a trade-off. Lower taxes or better services. Pick one. That is the standard excuse from the political class. It is also wrong. As Homer Township Supervisor, I cut the township property-tax levy by approximately $100,000 per year for four straight years, and increased services at the same time....
