schaumburg il: Schaumburg IL - Village keeping expenses down in 2011 - 12/21/11 02:04 PM
Village Property Tax Levy The Schaumburg Village Board approved a reduction in property taxes that impact the village’s portion of tax bills for residents and businesses for the second year in a row. The board agreed to a $22.7 million tax levy for 2011 – which is 6 percent less than last year’s levy.

schaumburg il: Schaumburg IL Area Recycling - 10/20/10 03:04 PM
Recycling in our community is right under our nose! I must have been living in a bubble but recently I've noticed that there are all kinds of great opportunities to get rid of your old electronics, batteries etc. that I never knew existed. Believe me I'm not a 'tree hugger' by any stretch of the imagination but I do feel that throwing out your old laptop (which I recently had to do) shouldn't be a major chore. I also believe that saving a million pounds of batteries from the land fills just might be an achievable goal.So here's what I've found … (7 comments)

schaumburg il: Autumn Ridge - Schaumburg IL Market Update - 01/28/10 01:38 PM
Autumn Ridge is considered one of the more upscale townhome communities in Schaumburg first developed in 1990 by Town and Country Builders. When I first visited the subdivision many years ago it impressed with the brick exteriors and it offered a ranch model which was in buyer demand but never built by most builders. For extras and unique points we have available: vaulted ceilings, full wall brick fireplaces, end unit upgrades, 1st floor Familyrooms, palladium windows, lunette windows, catwalk landing, whirlpools, skylites. Another rarity at the time was it also offered basements and buyer favored 2 car garages.
