The Forest Preserve District of DuPage County’s Board of Commissioners recently unanimously approved the agency’s 2024 budget and annual appropriation ordinance. The $136.2 million budget is primarily funded by less than 2% of a DuPage County homeowner’s property taxes. A homeowner with a property assessed at $308,500 is estimated to pay on average only $115 annually to the District, supporting the operation of and improvements to the District’s 26,000 acres of land, 60 forest preserves, 600 acres of lakes, and 166 miles of trails.
