FY 22 Budget Presentation
Budget Workshop #3
Wednesday, March 31, 2021
Budget Highlights
Total operating budget of $73,437,303
This figure includes the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, and
the Water Fund.
General Fund Budgeted Deficit of $2,529,982
This amount has been reduced from earlier budget drafts through a
combination of over $1.5 million in department-submitted and
executive adjustments
FY22 budgeted sales tax, the Village’s largest revenue source, decreased
2% from budgeted FY21, as the FY21 budgeted amounts were were not
adjusted to account for the pandemic; Sales taxes are projected to rise
2% as the economy bounces back
The budget does not account for funds available from the $1.9 trillion
American Rescue Plan, as the U.S. Treasury Department has yet to issue
rules dictating allocation and distribution
Budget Highlights
Budgeted amount for Water Sales has decreased by 46.9% from FY20
actuals due to the departure of Aqua Illinois as a primary customer
Increases to actuarially determined public safety pension contributions
• Police: $730,470, or 8%, increase ($5,468,331 total)
• Fire: $612,220, or 12%, increase ($4,981,958 total)
Includes the issuance of a G.O. bond of $18.7 million to address a backlog
of 217,000 square yards of road pavement repair or replacement
FY22 will be the first of two fiscal years in which most Public Works dump
trucks and smaller trucks will be replaced, without the need to take out
an installment contract
Fitness Center budget reflects the first year of a five-year plan to both
recover from the pandemic as well as eliminate structural deficit that
requires General Fund tax subsidies

substance abuse, domestic violence, and mental health crisis.
Niles Teen Center
Continue to lay the groundwork for teen engagement within the community through
enhanced partnerships in the community and beyond.
Program Enhancement
Build efficiency within our programs and service delivery through improved processes that
are adapted to the current needs of the community, including refined crisis services, food
pantry services, and financial wellness initiatives.
Waste Reduction
Advance our efforts to reduce waste and spending by continuing strategies to go paperless
for all departmental processes.
Beginning in 2020, with funding earmarked by the
Village Leadership to support education and addiction
services, Family Services introduced a new initiative for
Niles residents.
The ENGAGE Program is catered to residents that have
been impacted or are concerned about addiction and
the impact of drugs, alcohol, and gambling on the Niles
community as well as significant mental health
challenges and domestic violence. The key
component of the program is engaging the resident
throughout the extent of the hardship to increase
probability of success.
Although impacted by COVID-19, the Engage Program
developed formal processes for referrals from the NPD,
and focused on strengthening this aspect of the
program. Family Services Social Worker Tony Bertram
was embedded at the PD though a formal agreement
with Police.
During 2020, the department received 116 referrals for
residents for services under the Engage Program.
During FY21, the Teen Center went from 4 staff down to 1 due to the pandemic. Through this
transition the Teen Center pivoted and provided virtual opportunities for students to connect with
each other and the our staff.
• The Teen Center took a leadership role in Niles and the surrounding communities with the
creation of the Niles Teen Center Task Force comprised of local school district administrators,
teachers, coaches and students to combat isolation during the pandemic.
• Completion of $20,000 remodel of the Teen Center that was funded and completed by
volunteers and local business, organizations, and churches.
• Creation of Niles Community Youth Crew. The Teen Center partnered with the Senior Center to
have students assist the elderly with various projects throughout the year.
• New Glow in the Dark Dodgeball Tournament targeted to the Middle Schools
• Continual development of the Niles Community Youth Crew serving our neighbors and partnering
with local schools and churches
• Increase membership by targeting Gemini middle school and Clarence E. Culver school
• Continued partnership with Gemini Middle School to provide remote support for their teachers
during advisory classrooms. The Teen Center has been engaging with students remotely in the
classrooms throughout the hybrid schedule for the school. We seek to continue to grow this
opportunity. Teen Center Coordinator
• Creation of the Niles Teen Center “on the go”. The Teen Center is going to have a new presence at Mike Trevino
the parks of Niles and engage with students.
