Flossmoor

Recent Activity

Recent civic activity in Flossmoor, IL has focused on budget preparation and management, with Village Manager Wachtel presenting a detailed preliminary budget for FY27 to the Board of Trustees. The budget presentation highlighted challenges posed by Cook County's failure to timely remit property tax payments, which have impacted the Village's grant opportunities and financial stability. Notable decisions made include approving a Class AB-VGP liquor license for Beyond Borders Café and continuing to work with the South Suburban Mayor's and Manager's Association to lobby against legislation that increases costs without improving services. The Board also expressed appreciation for budget transparency and the hard work of Village staff and Trustees in preparing the annual budget.
