At the December 2009 board meeting additional comments were heard regarding the tax proposal. After schaumburg tax increasedue consideration and listening to both advocates and opponents of the tax the Village Board voted to adopt the ordinance levying a property tax. The Village of Schaumburg has not levied a municipal property tax since it's incorporation in 1956 and this is a first time occurance.

The proposed tax is estimated to be 8.1% of the 2009 property tax bill.  The amount will be billed on the second installment of the tax bill put out by Cook County in 2010 probably around November.  To see what the property tax might mean to you as a home owner please see at the table below. 

Please keep in mind that increases will not occur until 2011.

CLARIFICATION:  "the effects of the garbage collection and vehicle sticker waiver don't go into effect until 2011, and there is no guarantee these fees might (not) be reinstated."

"For the 2009 and 2010 property tax years Schaumburg residents will be paying both the new property tax and the vehicle and garbage fees".

"Also, the Village of Schaumburg stated their plans to increase the 2011 property tax levy by another 15%, but this has not been finalized yet".   (as of 6/21/10)
