Flat rate special service tax will be applied per property with one or more dwelling units for the years of 2025 to 2028 inclusive. The rate of the special service tax will be $327 in 2025, with a 5% increase per year on all taxable, grant-in-lieu and otherwise exempt properties in the village. Properties with multiple dwelling units will be levied based on the number of dwelling units on the property.
