The Village of Maple Bluff faces challenges in maintaining the delivery of services to its residents. The increasing costs of operations coupled with rising demands for services, insufficient staffing, and budget shortfalls strain the Village’s ability to serve its community. Despite efforts to keep staff levels and costs to village residents low, growing demands have surpassed staff capacity.

The Village Board approved Resolution 2024-05 “A Resolution to hold a public referendum to increase the Village Levy” at a Special Village Board Meeting held August 20, 2024 by a vote of 6 to 0. The referendum will include adjustments to operating expenses, providing competitive staff wages, and adding administrative support which equates to $849,500 increase in the tax levy on an ongoing basis.

The referendum will appear on the November 5th, General Election Ballot.
