SUMMARY:Kane County Tax Referendum Town Hall
DESCRIPTION:Representatives of the Kane County Board will host several public meetings to present educational information regarding the proposed Special County Retailer’s Occupation Tax Referendum. In September 2024\, the Kane County Board approved placing this measure on the April 1\, 2025\, election ballot to ask voters whether or not to establish a 0.75% sales tax dedicated exclusively to funding essential public safety services. Those services include the Sheriff’s Office\, State’s Attorney\, Public Defender\, Coroner\, Circuit Clerk\, KaneComm 911\, Public Health\, and the Office of Emergency Management. \nThe proposed sales tax would add 75 cents per $100 spent on applicable retail purchases in Kane County\, with exemptions for essential items such as groceries and prescription medications. \nThe revenue generated from this tax would be allocated to public safety initiatives\, such as: \n\nSupporting law enforcement and emergency response services.\nUpgrading public safety technology and infrastructure.\nEnhancing emergency preparedness and response capabilities.\nExpanding programs to address drug overdoses\, neglect\, and abuse.\n\nEach meeting will follow a town hall format\, allowing attendees to ask questions and provide feedback. \nTown Hall Meeting Schedule:\n\nBurlington: Feb. 4\, Mott’s Lounge\, 5:30–6:30 p.m.\nEast Dundee: Feb. 10\, Dundee Township Building\, 5:00–6:00 p.m.\nElgin: Feb. 24\, Gail Borden Library\, 5:00–6:00 p.m.\nAurora: March 3\, Santori Library\, 5:30–6:30 p.m.\nSt. Charles: March 6\, St. Charles Library\, 5:30–6:30 p.m.\nGeneva: March\, 10\, Geneva Library\, 5:30-6:​30 p.m.​
