INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON
MANAGEMENT’S ASSERTION OF COMPLIANCE
The Honorable Mayor and
Members of the Board of Trustees
Village of Arlington Heights, Illinois
We have examined management’s assertion that the Village of Arlington Heights, Illinois (the
Village), complied with the provisions of subsection (q) of Section 11-74.4-3 of the Illinois Tax
Increment Redevelopment Allocation Act (Illinois Public Act 85-1142) during the year ended
December 31, 2024. Management is responsible for the Village’s assertion. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on management’s assertion about the Village’s compliance with the specific
requirements based on our examination.
Our examination was made in accordance with the standards established by the American Institute
of Public Accountants. Those standards require that we plan and perform the examination to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether management’s assertion about compliance with the specified
requirements is fairly stated, in all material respects. An examination involves performing
procedures to obtain evidence about whether management’s assertion is fairly stated, in all material
respects. The nature, timing, and extent of the procedures selected depend on our judgment,
including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of management’s assertion, whether
due to fraud or error. We believe that the evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We are required to be independent and meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with
relevant ethical requirements relating to the engagement.
Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Village’s compliance with the
specified requirements.
In our opinion, management’s assertion that the Village of Arlington Heights, Illinois, complied with
the aforementioned requirements for the year ended December 31, 2024, is fairly stated in all
material respects.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of Trustees, management and
the Illinois Department of Revenue, Illinois State Comptrollers office and the Joint Review Board
and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
