No referendum passed for 95th street bridge

When a government body decides to spend millions on a project, there should always be a referendum of votes from the residents it serves.  For example the library board wanted to build a new library, and it was on the ballot for the residents to vote on. It was voted in, hence the large tax increase for the library on your tax bill.

However, the Village Board, run by Mr. Roger Claar, does not give us the same courtesy.
Did they ask the residents to vote on the new police station? 

So how would you feel, if as a tax payer, you found out that the highly controversial 95th street bridge, which constructs right over Bolingbrook's only Native American artifact site and the neighboring residents, nor neighboring town of Naperville want, is costing us millions?

There was not a referendum.  There was not any transparency from our government.  This bridge is not wanted, it desecrates land and devalues homes nearby, and nobody has proven why it is needed when we already have two bridges going to the same place. 

Yet, here are the staggering figures planned in the new budget for this fiscal year...
Project Y082201  95th Street Bridge  $3,973,607.00
Project Y092201 95th Street Bridge $4,300,000.00
Total:  $8,273,607.00

So hold your pants up high, the flood of taxes are coming your way!  This one bridge will cost as much as the New Bolingbrook Police Building.  I wonder who donated to get that project! 

But at least you will have another bridge getting into residential Naperville...
