Dundee Township to sue Kane County to force mental health tax collection
Updated 4/22/2021 11:05 AM
Dundee Township residents who voted in support of a local property tax increase in March 2020 to fund mental health services may now have to await the results of a lawsuit to see if their new 708 mental health board gets the tax money.
Township trustees voted 3-1 Wednesday night to file a lawsuit against the Kane County clerk s office.
Clerk Jack Cunningham, upon the advice of the Kane County state s attorney s office, informed the township last month that his office would not collect the tax for the township. County officials believe the March 2020 referendum, approved with 63% of the vote, was not worded clearly enough to inform township residents a yes vote would increase their property taxes.
