Residents of the Warren-Waukegan Fire Protection District are in for some relief on their tax bills following the approval of a significant $1.2 million tax abatement. This move marks the district's largest abatement to date and one of the most substantial local tax breaks in recent years. The decision was made by the district board last week, reflecting their commitment to tackling resident concerns regarding property taxes. While it's still too early to determine exactly how much this abatement will save individual households, last year’s $300,000 abatement led to approximately $75 in tax savings for the average household.
The district, which encompasses unincorporated areas between Waukegan and Gurnee, extending westward to Grayslake, serves around 3,300 households and structures. Park City is also included within the district’s coverage area, despite being incorporated.
In terms of operational efficiency, the district collaborates with the Gurnee Fire Department for fire and rescue services across the entire district. As part of this agreement, the district funds equipment and personnel to support the expanded responsibilities. Thanks to careful financial planning and support from Gurnee, the district has transitioned from facing annual deficits of $800,000 just 15 years ago to building sufficient cash reserves to enable such generous tax abatements.
Expanding the Gurnee Fire Department’s service area has also opened up opportunities for grant applications and additional funding that the department might not have qualified for otherwise. Over the years, the district has invested heavily in emergency vehicles, purchasing multiple ambulances and fire engines. They’ve even contributed half the cost of Gurnee’s latest ladder truck. Additionally, more than a decade ago, the district passed a resolution ensuring that residents wouldn’t face any out-of-pocket costs for ambulance services.
This strategic financial management not only benefits the district but strengthens the overall firefighting capabilities in the region, creating a win-win situation for both the district and its residents.
