The Town Of Lake Zurich, Illinois
|
|---|
 Lake Zurich offers 23 neighborhood parks and three lakefront parks. Resident beaches are located in Paulus Park and Breezewald Park. Most of the community-wide events, such as Fourth of July Family Day and Ela Festival of Arts, are staged at Paulus Park, located north of the intersection of Route 22 and Rand Road (Route 12) on the west side of the Village. Breezewald Park is located in the downtown district, just north of Route 22 and Old Rand Road.
Many national retailers are located along Rand Road near Route 22. This area includes large supermarkets, convenient shopping, items for the home, various services and restaurants. Several Lake Zurich restaurants are recognized in the Chicago area for excellence in their categories of dining.
The downtown area along Route 22 (Main Street) and Old Rand Road is home to several popular restaurants as well as many professional services. Downtown Lake Zurich is also in the midst of a revitalization effort. A new promenade and streetscape is proposed for the area where the current seawall is located on Route 22. The Village Hall, 70 East Main Street, is located in the downtown area. The affairs of government are overseen by a mayor and six village trustees. If you have any questions about Village laws or government, feel free to call us at (847) 438-5141. The Village Board has meetings on most Monday evenings throughout the year. Agendas as well as tapes of the meetings may be viewed on Cable Channel 4 at various times during the week.
The Village covers 6.9 square miles. In emergencies, residents of Lake Zurich dial 911 for help. A new police facility is currently being constructed at South Old Rand and Surryse Roads with completion date set for Fall of 2001. Ongoing training assures that sworn officers and staff are skilled in all aspects of law enforcement. The department concentrates on crime prevention and community involvement.
The firefighters of the Lake Zurich Fire and Rescue Department serve the Village and contract out to the Lake Zurich Rural Fire Protection District to cover a wide swath of the rural area encompassing parts of several neighboring communities. Firefighters and paramedics undergo continuing training, assuring skilled fire suppression and rescue in all possible conditions, including hazardous materials response, underground and confined space rescue, and diving into ice covered or open waters for rescue purposes. The Village’s Public Works Department maintains over 120 miles of streets. It is also responsible for providing water and wastewater services to the community. Six deep wells provide the Village with water. Wastewater treatment is handled by the Lake County Des Plaines River Wastewater Treatment Plant. The Village pumps about 1,800,000 gallons of wastewater to the plant daily, but has a capacity to pump 18,000,000 gallons. |
