From the Desk of
Mayor Ann B. Taylor
It was a successful budgeting season at Waukegan City Hall as we did not increase property taxes, we paid down debt, and the City is on its way toward an anticipated credit upgrade. I want to extend my gratitude to our hard-working City employees who worked tirelessly to ensure that Waukegan taxpayers get the most out of their City government.
Equally exciting is the fact that summer is just around the corner. The boats are back in the harbor, the beach is open, we had our Memorial Day festivities, and we all can look forward to a full set of summer activities here in our community. I encourage you to read through this email and plan your summer fun in Waukegan!
Lastly, please slow down while driving, and mind the speed limits throughout the City. Slowing down saves lives, especially at this time of year when we have so many more young people enjoying the outdoors.
