Letter: Mundelein keeps adding more local taxes

Mundelein has raised taxes on natural gas and electricity. I remember when they passed this tax hike on these two items, I said, "You're raising taxes on these for roads? Where is the connection?"

To make things worse, these both have gone up over the past year with an additional 3% tax. The tax rate will go up over the next two years to 4% 2023 and 5% in 2024. This is like a double whammy here. Prices go up, we pay more and we pay more in taxes. Great work, board and mayor. I have an idea: cut spending and lower taxes. Give your people a break we pay too much in taxes as it is.
