The City of Elgin has cancelled its 4th of July fireworks this year after revenue shortfalls made it difficult to fund the nearly $65,000 expense.  City administration will be reviewing the budget for next year and hopes to again host the annual display.  

City of Elgin administrative offices will be closed Friday, July 3 in observance of the 4th of July holiday.  Offices will reopen at 8 a.m. on Monday, July 6.

Have a safe holiday.
