This strategic plan outlines the Village of Mettawa's mission to preserve and nurture its authentic rural and horse-friendly environment. It aims to ensure the highest quality of family life for its residents through ongoing efforts to maintain its distinctive character.
The Finance Committee reviewed invoices for payment, noting the inclusion of Morton Salt restocking charges and a planned permit fee refund for a resident who is demolishing a home instead of remodeling. The Treasurer's Report ending December 31, 2025, was reviewed, showing significant monthly revenue and expenses, and updates were provided regarding the issuance of 1099 forms. The committee also reviewed the status of outstanding tax rebate checks, noting that most have been deposited. Under additional items, the committee discussed engineering service providers, learning that the Village of Third Lake uses IMEG, which provides institutional knowledge despite a mixed review, and noted that Third Lake faces higher permitting costs compared to James Anderson. The discussion included Mettawa's current compliance with upcoming 2027 certified inspector requirements. A resident raised concerns regarding a disconnect between James Anderson's plan approval for insulation and B&F Inspection Company's requirements during the final inspection of his basement ceiling fireproofing. The committee also discussed obtaining data for a fee generator spreadsheet to better understand the $18,000 monthly engineering service amount.
The Finance Committee reviewed several critical financial matters. Discussions included the status of a scanning project, where two-thirds completion was reported, and the payment of $67,000 in Lake Forest Tax Sharing. The Committee reviewed the October 31, 2025 Treasurer's Report, noting revenue was over budget and expenditures were under budget. The Committee finalized plans to issue 159 checks for the 2025 Tax Rebate Program. Direction was requested regarding the renewal contract for the Village Engineer, resulting in a recommendation to offer a $16,000 flat monthly retainer while exploring other engineering firms. The Committee reviewed the FY2025-2026 Budget versus Expenses mid-year, noting upward revenue trends. Final recommendations included approving the 2025-2026 insurance policy, approving the resolution for the 2025 Tax Levy amount, and approving amendments to the agreements for the Village Administrator and Village Clerk services, noting cost savings associated with retaining these roles as part-time. Additionally, a resident reward program was discussed for future consideration.
The Finance Committee meeting covered several financial operations. Discussions included initiating a wire transfer of $300,000.00 from the IL Funds account to the Wintrust account to cover a W.W. Grainger quarterly sales tax sharing payment. The total invoices presented for payment amounted to $420,700.61. The Treasurer's Report ending November 30, 2025, was reviewed, noting a decrease in Funds on Deposit due to tax rebate payouts and a commitment to correct an Excel formula error in the bank account balances page. The committee also reviewed the James Anderson Company Agreement for 2026 and the engineering contract terms, with a recommendation to initiate a Request for Proposal process. Finally, the committee reviewed and recommended for approval an ordinance authorizing the levy and collection of taxes for the Village of Mettawa for the tax year 2025, noting no increase in SSAs amounts this year.
