The Village Board of Spring Valley has scheduled a pubic hearing for Monday December 4 at 9:00 am to discuss the possibility of establishing a ward system for the election of village trustees and increasing the number of village trustees from 4 to 6. The purpose of the public hearing is for the village board to hear public input and feedback regarding a village ward system. The village board will also consider whether or not to set a date for a referendum so voters can decide for themselves whether or not to switch from the current at-large system of representation with only 4 trustees to a ward system with 6.
