Representatives of Illinois’ villages, towns and cities are confident that they’ll be able to get more state tax money with newly-installed Democratic supermajorities and a Democrat in the governor’s office.

The Illinois Municipal League announced Monday a list of changes it wants to usher along in Springfield. Chief among them is upping the percentage of state tax revenue they get, which had been reduced in recent years.

IML Executive Director Brad Cole says they’ve seen support for that among Democrats in the General Assembly. Cole also says they’re working with lawmakers to pass legislation to consolidate the more than 600 local police and fire pensions across the state in an effort to save administrative fees paid for by local residents.
