No one caught the fact that the tax levy was 3% more than last year? I questioned the fnance director about the tax increase when the public notice said it would be 0%. Additionally, there was language in the ordinance that also allowed an additional 3% for uncollectable taxes and and additional 5% to be collected for debt service. That's 11%.

The mayor said that the 3% for uncollected taxes owed was included in the 1st 3% raise (1 MILLION MORE $s than we asked to be collected in 2011). My simple question was: "If that was the case, then why does paragraph two of the ordinance state that the 3% is in ADDITION TO the money to be assessed??

The City Administrator had no answers, the Alderman who is chair of the finance committee had no answers and just sat there, the finance director looked puzzled, and none of the Aldermen had any questions about the 11% increase.

Turns out there was a BIG mistake. The additional 3% and 5% were not supposed to be put into the levy ordinance at all. A motion was made to strike paragraph 2 of the levy. Look, this was going to sail through and go to the County Clerk and the State Treasurer. When would they have caught this mistake? Why no other Aldermen upset about a public notice stating 0% tax increase and almost voting to increase taxes by 11%?

Because they rubber stamp everything and don't care about the financial impact on residents ?

Was it the public notice that was wrong?  or was it the wording of the tax levy that was wrong?

The saddest thing is that there was nothing in the Life newspaper about this. 

  Since the new owners took over the Life and since they laid off Brett, there have been no news worthy items or coverage of local council or other meetings.

  Just re-gurgitation of smiley face press releases by local school districts and other government bodies and puff pieces for the thugocrats and their allies. The Life has become pathetic.

By the way, if the person running against Marge is going to snip at her on BTF, at least have the guts to come out from out the cloak of anonymity and post in your real name so that people know who you are and that you're running against Marge for office.

  At least Marge has signed some of her posts with her real name.  Her opponent should do likewise, if he is going to continue to snip at her.

Here are posts in the last 30 months where Marge has signed her name.  I can go back further if it interests you, Mark:

I just posted this under Basement Flooding:

We woke up to some sewage and water residue in the basement. This is the one year anniversary of last year's July flood. Once again, residents living in the area just east of Proksa Park are reporting flooded basements.

I am collecting the names of 3rd Ward residents who had flooded basements last night/this morning. Larry, Frank, Matt and Bob, I have you on the list already.

For 3rd Ward residents only: Please call me at (708) 788-3361 or e-mail me at marge3rdward@sbcglobal.net to report flooded basements, streets and alleys. I will be cleaning my basement and then heading out to the neighborhood. Please provide your name, address, telephone number and the approximate amount of water you think you had. (My basement had already drained by the time I woke up this morning.) I'll be taking messages only today and will try to kep the voice mailbox empty to accept your calls.

Sorry to hear that so many friends are once again bailing out.
Marge Paul, 3rd Ward Alderman

[Done. Here is the message I sent.
Ladies and Gentlemen: I join in the call for Mr. Pesek's resignation from the District 201 School Board. I support the vote of board member Margaret Kelly against re-electing Mr. Pesek as school board President. However, it would not be enough for Mr. Pesek to relinquish his office while remaining on the board at this point in time. Only his resignation from his seat on the school board will begin the process of rehabilitation of the community's trust. While the board may not be able to un-seat Mr. Pesek, a vote of No Confidence in Mr. Pesek would show that the Morton High School District is listening to the parents, students, teachers, and members of the larger community it serves. Alderman Margaret Paul, Berwyn IL

I guess I'm clueless, who's been sniping at Marge?

exactly!
That's what I was asking; not where she signed her posts.

  OK.  But, you said you didn't know that Homebody was Marge and then when I said Marge signed her name on some posts, you said "Where?".  That's why I thought you were asking "where" Marge signed her posts.

Interesting dilemma.  If I point out the post, I would essentially be outing someone who is currently anonymous.

btw, I said snipping, not sniping.

No, I sarcastically said I did not know Marge's real name was Homebody, since you requested others to post in their real names.  (Marge doesn't post in her real name; she's signed posts.)

So, my question was rerring to your assertion that her opponent was "snipping" at her.  I don't see it.   In this particular thread all I see are buzz and EC ripping on the aldermen for not doing their homework.
