POLL: How Will You Vote on the Referendum Question in Glencoe?
The Village of Glencoe will be asking residents in the upcoming election to authorize more than $8 million in bonds to cover storm sewer improvements, and sanitary sewer, street and sidewalk upgrades.
On November 6, the Village of Glencoe will be formally asking residents to give the green light for $8.55 million in new general obligation bonds to handle street, sewer and sidwalks improvements.
