Yes, it i time for Bolingbrook to be creative on how many more areas they can yank money from your pockets. You see, there is a huge debt in Bolingbrook that must be repaid. Debt incurred by a rubber stamp trustee board and a spendaholic mayor who made some bad business decisions on losing ventures.
Well now the Golf Course losses, as well as the airport and Americana Estates will be coming from your pockets.
I know, it is not the first time. First they increased food, liquor, and hotel taxes to offset this. But the debt is still growing and your money is not enough.
Now they are adding a $2.50 tax to every bag you want to throw away from yard waste. That is more than Naperville charges.
But hey, when you vote the spendaholics into office, this is what you get.
The last time they tried to get creative about taxing the residents, they installed red light cameras. That cost us a bundle and had to be stopped. Another poor decision. Let's see where this one leads!
One resident told me today that the next thing they will have to do is car stickers and dog tags again. Silly that they keep going into the same pockets for more and more money. Bolingbrook residents are NOT rich. I repeat, they are NOT rich. Eventually, all these extra taxes will only lead to more foreclosures, higher property taxes, and a complete inability to sell your home. Thanks Roger Claar!
And park district dumping, and unkempt yards...
