From the Illinois Municipal League comes this information about which cities and villages have voted to replace the state’s grocery tax:
- Algonquin
- Bull Valley
- Cary
- Crystal Lake
- Fox River Grove
- Harvard
- Hebron
- Huntley
- Island Lake
- Johnsburg
- Lake in the Hills
- Lakemoor
- Marengo
- McCullom Lake
- McHenry
- Port Barrington
- Prairie Grove
- Ringwood
- Wonder Lake
- Woodstock
The only municipalities I see who have not decided to raise local taxes are Lakewood, Richmond, Spring Grove and Union.
From a public finance point of view, those who spend the money should be responsible for levying the taxes
