Schultz said if it hadn’t been for the recent death of the group’s founder, Jim Tobin, Taxpayers United would have helped organize organized opposition to the proposal. “These school districts spend, spend, spend and expect taxpayers to foot the bill,” Schultz said. Matthew Schultz of Chicago Taxpayers United of America said the organization opposes raising taxes. If passed, property taxes would increase by 60 cents per $100 of assessed value to generate about $13.25 million a year for the district, and the owner of a home worth $250,000 would pay about $500 more per year. Local leaders, more than 50 area business owners and a large parent-created group in the district have all voiced their support for Warren Township District 121’s proposed property tax increase, which will be submitted voters in the June 28 elections.
