All Eating Establishments
On Monday, April 12, 2010, the Village of Villa Park Board of Trustees approved Ordinance #3602, which established a Places for Eating Tax. The rate of the tax shall be 1.5% of the gross receipts received by the restaurant on, or after June 1, 2010. The tax imposed shall be in addition to any other taxes upon the selling price of food, or alcoholic beverages sold at retail.

All places of eating establishments must complete and return the registration form no later than May 15, 2010, even if you believe your business is not subject to the new tax. The registration and remittance forms are available online.

Thank you for your assistance. If you have any questions about the tax that are not answered in the attached information, please contact the Finance Department at 630-834-8500.

Sincerely,
Shannon Lump
Finance Director
