PRESENTATIONS  
10.A. 2025 Fiscal Projection Summary  
Jeff Martynowicz, Chief Financial Officer, discussed the County's FY2025 fiscal ending  
position, specifically within the General Fund. Sales Tax had a total of $19,317,197 over the  
budgeted amount. Income Tax had a total of $949,807 over the budgeted amount. The  
consolidated income statement for the General Fund shows a total surplus of $34,737,149 for  
FY2025. By a show of hands, committee members provided consensus to move forward with the  
Chair's recommended allocation of $25,000,000 in surplus funds, which has been discussed in  
previous meetings. Nick Kottmeyer, Chief Administrative Officer, proposed various options for  
the remaining $9,737,149 in surplus funds. These options included funding for: DuDOT  
Maintenance Garage, Tort Liability, DuPage County Historical Museum, Finance ERP, Parking  
Decks, ROE Center for Student Success, Addition to Reserves, Vehicle Replacement Fund, and  
Hinsdale Lake Terrace Sidewalk Program. Committee members requested more information on  
the proposed options and did not come to a consensus on any of them at this time. The proposed  
options will be discussed again in more detail at the next Finance Committee meeting.
