It is a financial explanation by the Village Finance committee: The fiscal year ended in April. Your village is $5,929.71 better off than one year ago. The actual audit shows we are $8,808.86 worse off than one year ago. The reason for our first statement, however, is due to judgments against the village for $14,738.57 being for the first time, set up on the audit, though the judgments have been in effect for some years for misapplication of special assessment funds by village officials during 1982. > Our better financial condition is reflected‘ in every department of the village. One of the primary reaâ€" sons for .his is that for the first time in many years your village board did not borrow any money on tax anticipation warrants but lived within its income. The income showed some increase,too. This was due in part to enforcing the ordiâ€" nances regarding licenses for dogs and vehicles which have always been on the books but not rigidly enforced. It is unfair for some to pay and others not. Therefore, these ordinances are being enforced as they were last year.
