Elk Grove Township voters to decide on selling property
Elk Grove Township residents will vote Monday whether to sell the township's remaining properties as part of a long-term consolidation plan.
A public vote on selling the township's headquarters building and community day care center is set for 7 p.m. Monday in the Elk Grove Village council chambers, 901 Wellington Ave.
Since late 2014, township officials have been mulling plans to move out of existing facilities and return the properties to tax rolls. Officials haven't decided where new public facilities would be located.
An appraiser valued the headquarters, at 2400 S. Arlington Heights Road in Arlington Heights, at $955,000.
A township building at 711 Chelmsford Lane in Elk Grove Village was valued at $2.5 million.
A simple majority of at least 15 voters who attend the meeting is required to authorize the sales. If voters decide to list the sites, the township must get at least 80 percent of the appraised value to sell.
