[ARCHIVED] New Village Budget Linked Directly To Strategic Plan Initiatives

Village of Westmont
Date Issued: Jan. 19, 2017

“To help ensure that the initiatives of our recent Strategic Plan are being addressed, we completely restructured our annual Village Budget,” said Westmont Finance Director Spencer Parker. “After reviewing the plan in terms of priorities and implementation, now we can focus on the more detailed work of budgeting for some of these initiatives.”

Each year, Village Staff and Village Board work together to develop and adopt the annual budget.  The Village Budget is typically adopted in May and runs through the end of April of the following year.  The creation of the budget takes many months of preparation. This will be the first year that the Village Budget follows the outline of the Westmont Strategic Plan, which was formally adopted in 2016.

The Village has scheduled a Budget Workshop for citizens to attend and participate.  The workshop is scheduled for Thursday, April 6, 6 p.m. at the Village Hall, 31 W. Quincy Street.

“We invite our residents and businesses to participate in the workshop and get involved,” said Village Trustee and Finance Committee Chair Marie Johanik-Guzzo. “This is one of the best ways in which citizens can learn about how our Village operates and the costs associated with our programs and services.”

The workshop will be recorded and made available for playback on the Village YouTube Channel. Adoption of the Village Budget is expected to occur by May 2017.  For more information, please contact the Finance Department at finance@westmont.il.gov or 630-981-6230.
