The village is planning a $1.6 million bond-financed project for improvements to the 43-acre Cherry Valley Regional Storm Water Detention Facility,
By law, the petitions must have valid signatures of at least 51 percent of the SSA’s property owners, and at least 51 percent of the voters in the taxing district. The petitioners believe the 677 signatures submitted far exceed those requirements.
Meantime, village officials are reviewing the submitted petitions to determine whether the signatures meet the statutory criteria to block the tax for at least two years.
If the petitions meet legal requirements, a referendum for the necessary improvements could be placed before Cherry Valley voters as early as this fall, but village officials hope it won’t come to that.
