1 (WHEREUPON, the following
2 proceedings were had in
3 public hearing : )
4 MAYOR PURCELL: Public hearings,
5 actually we have a couple. Very interesting,
6 important things . First one is the action that
7 we ' ve heard the 2019 tax levy that will go to
8 2020 bills . Do I have to open the public
9 hearing. Is that how I do it?
10 MS . ORR: Yes .
11 MAYOR PURCELL: I am opening the public
12 hearing if anyone wants to comment on the tax
13 levy, we will do that one first.
14 (No response . )
15 MAYOR PURCELL: No comments?
16 UNIDENTIFIED AUDIENCE MEMBER: What are
17 you proposing?
18 MAYOR PURCELL: What ' s that?
19 MR. SHOPECK: Comments from the floor?
20 MAYOR PURCELL: If you want to come to
21 the microphone, yeah, state your name and then
22 tell us what you want to tell us .
23 MR. SHOPECK: Hi . Can you hear me now?
24 MAYOR PURCELL: One more time . Is that

1 Sprint or Verizon?
2 MR. SHOPECK: Can you hear me now? I
3 don' t know. Hi, Walt Shopeck (phonetic) ,
4 Yorkville resident . I read in the paper about
5 the tax increase, and I understand, I read that
6 the argument is out of our total tax bill,
7 Yorkville is like only six percent, but the
8 reality is as residents of the town, we are
9 getting nickeled and dimed, and just please stop.
10 As I drive around Yorkville the last
11 couple years, I ' ve seen all these new homes go
12 up, and every time I see a house go up, I say
13 it ' s a small house, that ' s $5, 000 into the tax
14 rolls . That ' s a big house, it ' s 10, 000 . That ' s
15 a really big house, 15, 000 .
16 So from where I see it, tax revenues
17 should be on the increase because people are
18 moving here and new homes are going up .
19 Figure out how to pay the bills with
20 the money you are getting in now; don' t ask us to
21 for more . Thank you.
22 (Applause . )
23 MAYOR PURCELL: Thank you very much.
24 Other comments? Again, this is on the tax levy

1 if you have comments .
2 I am sure somebody has comments on
3 the boundary line agreement, that will be the
4 next one .
5 MR. CRAWFORD: Hi . Darren Crawford, I
6 live over in Kylyn ' s Crossing . Last year our
7 taxes went up, in Kylyn' s Crossing, at least my
8 house, went up 18 and a half percent . Okay.
9 That ' s pretty extreme . Now another increase?
10 We already were assessed this year
11 in Kylyn ' s Crossing for 4 . 88 percent more on the
12 assessment of all the homes in the subdivision.
13 This is getting a little out of hand.
14 Like the gentleman said, we ' re
15 getting nickeled and dimed. It ' s getting to the
16 point where I have to consider about moving, and
17 that ' s -- I like this community, I like it a lot,
18 I don ' t want to have to move, but I 'm getting
19 taxed out of it . That ' s what I want to say.
20 MAYOR PURCELL : Thank you for your
21 comments .
22 MR. QUIGLEY: Hi . Good evening. My
23 name is Ben Quigley. I am a Yorkville resident
24 recently here just in the spring, moved here from
Vitosh deporting Service

1 Montgomery. We moved here because of a few
2 different things, it seemed like a good place to
3 bring our children.
4 The school district in 308 was
5 having its struggles, even though they had
6 consistently increased the tax revenue and were
7 hitting us for more every year, last year
8 included, and I personally just would like to
9 know what the plan is .
10 There are communities in the
11 surrounding area that have higher taxes than we
12 do here . To be honest, they seem to be doing
13 more with those dollars than we are here .
14 If there is an intention to spend
15 those dollars really intelligently, potentially
16 there is something to discuss, but I think if
17 this money is going to be spent the way that 308
18 School District spent theirs and the way that
19 Oswego and Montgomery have handled, mishandled,
20 their tax revenue, then I think that this should
21 be something that just gets reassessed and should
22 be put out and maybe put to a vote for the
23 city -- citizens of the city here because more
24 money for less value or to not increase the value

20 do this public hearing as well because I think

10 ALDERMAN FUNKHOUSER: Yes, I just have
11 one . I think the agreement is good the way it
12 is, I just have one tweak that I would recommend
13 making that I would like to see happen.
14 As we know, the county has acquired
15 land for a reconfiguration of Eldamain down to
16 Fox. I think it would be prudent for us to
17 follow that center line or at least capture that
18 property to the west edge as is on our current
19 plan now.
20 I think that would be serviceable by
21 Yorkville, but it makes sense, it ' s consistent
22 with what we have all the way down the Eldamain
23 corridor, so I would like us to make an attempt
24 to try to change that and have that moved,

Subject: Meeting Tonight/City Hall at 7PM Tax Levy-NOT in FAVOR OF PROPERTY TAX INCREASE
Dear Bart,
I have now lived in Yorkville with my daughter for over 17 years. I love our neighborhood, our neighbors are more like
family. We love our Parish. I am contacting you with concerns of property tax increase.
Our properties have taken large increases with property tax increases over the years. This is my first time voicing a
concern as the property taxes are already extremely high. I know that I am not alone with having to make the difficult
decision with needing to plan on moving out of Yorkville if the taxes continue to increase, as for many we do not receive
an increase in pay each year to cover these property tax increases.
I was informed there is a meeting tonight at 7pm and Tax Levy is on the agenda. I will be still at work when the meeting is
being held is the reason I am reaching out to you via email with stating I am not in favor of the property tax increase.
Thank you for your time!
Sincerely,
Cassandra Hollarbush
