City of Naperville Annual Operating Budget and Capital Improvement Program
The budget includes investments in utility infrastructure and transportation improvements. Rising health insurance costs have impacted personnel expenses across most funds. The budget theme, Money with a Mission, reflects an ongoing approach to financial management, emphasizing conservative budgeting and revenue forecasting. The City is more dependent on the ongoing success of other revenue sources, such as property taxes, sales taxes, and state-shared income tax revenue. The budget reflects costs associated with the compensation and classification study's outcome and negotiated union agreements. The budget supports a 3% cost-of-living adjustment, a 1% merit pool increase for non-union employees, union wages in line with negotiated agreements, and an additional $308,000 in potential wage adjustments to support the compensation and classification study. The budget also supports an 18.5% increase in employee health insurance and increases in the required contributions to Fire, Police, and IMRF pensions. The budget reflects the 1% municipal grocery tax that goes into effect on Jan. 1, 2026. The 2026 CIP is valued at $190.25 million. Planned water and wastewater infrastructure-related projects are the highest-cost area, accounting for 48.2% of the 2026 capital budget.
