Village and Community Updates
HOLIDAY HOURS. Village Hall will be closed to the public on Christmas Eve (this Thursday), Christmas Day (this Friday), and New Year's Day (next Friday). The Village's recycling center will be closed on Christmas Day and New Year's Day.
JUST A LITTLE BIT LONGER. The COVID-19 vaccine is already being administered in our area. Because vaccine supply will be limited at first, certain groups of people who are at higher risk will be eligible for vaccination before others. Lake County Health Department is asking that you register now so that you can be notified when you are eligible to receive the vaccine.
LOSE SOME WEIGHT THIS HOLIDAY. Did you know that Groot will collect one bulky item each week at no additional cost? You can always check the Village website for more information about disposal options.
SUBSCRIBE AND SAVE. Lake Bluff has partnered with six other North Shore suburbs to create Illinois' largest municipally sponsored community solar program. Community solar allows residents and small businesses to subscribe and save 20% on their electricity supply charges through bill credits while supporting renewable energy development. For more information, visit lakebluff.org/CommunitySolar.
Board and Committee Actions
For more information, visit the Village's meeting packets and videos page. Agendas and meeting materials are typically available the Friday before a meeting; videos within a week after the meeting; and minutes after they are approved at the next meeting of the public body.
