ISN'T IT
BETTER TO JUST LEAVE THIS AREA ALL UNINCORPORATED? |
|
| |
No, because developers are trying
to decide for us what will happen in our unincorporated areas.
Building developments that add hundreds if not thousands of new homes in
our area. These homes might not be next door to you however they
do affect your way of life and your taxes.
Such large scale housing developments will add more students in
our schools, place more traffic on our roads stretching the
budget to widen the existing roads, and pay for additional fire
and rescue protection and much more. A rapidly growing
population translates into the need for added services by
these new residents. This all translates into higher taxes to
all residents from many different directions on your tax bill.
When you become incorporated as a village you have more control on
what type of developments are being built and have more
zoning regulations. Also you can have larger impact fees
from the developers to offset additional costs to the
schools districts. |

DIDN'T WE ALREADY HAVE A
VOICE IN WHAT HAPPENS TO OUR AREA WHEN WE WERE UNINCORPORATED? |
|
| |
When
this area was unincorporated you only had 1
voice representing you on the Kane County Board out of 26. The
other 25 county board members are from other cities in Kane
County not from our area. A village will give you local
residents on a village board that are concerned about our area. |

WILL CAMPTON HILLS BE ABLE TO GET MORE MONEY FOR OUR AREA
FROM THE STATE OF ILLINOIS? |
|
| |
A city or town government will receive substantial amounts
of state revenues which do not flow to an unincorporated community.
Also the State
of Illinois gives municipalities a larger share of the Motor Fuel Tax
than if you are unincorporated. In addition the sales tax dollars spent
in the village will now stay in our community instead
of being spread throughout the county. |

MANY TIMES I HEAR THERE IS NOT THAT MUCH LAND TO DEVELOP
WITH THE VILLAGE OF CAMPTON HILLS, IS THAT TRUE? |
|
| |
There is approx 3000 acres of
undeveloped land that is available for development within the Village
boundary that can be developed either for housing or
commercial. |

DOES
CAMPTON HILLS HAVE A POLICE DEPARTMENT THAT WILL BE
SPECIFICALLY FOR THE VILLAGE AND NOT FOR ALL OF KANE COUNTY
LIKE THE SHERIFF DEPARTMENT? |
|
| |
Yes the
Village of Campton
Hills will have dedicated police officers on duty 24 hours every day
patrolling the village and be able to address the residents
concerns.
