FOR THE GOOD OF YOUR
COMMUNITY . . .
The Village has authorized the
United States Bureau of the Census to conduct a Special Census which is
currently underway. Special Census workers will visit all residents until
the census is completed.
The Special Census enumerators will be
wearing red, white, and blue badges and will contact all residents personally
and/or by phone. They will be working evenings as well as weekends.
This census differs from the Decennial Census, as the questions are brief,
taking only a minute or two to answer. Questions regarding name, sex,
race, age and marital status will be asked of each member of the household
(citizen and non citizen; legal or illegal). All information obtained
during the interview will only be used for the purpose of the Special
Census. Furthermore, all information is absolutely confidential under the
United States Code, Title 13. No government agency, IRS, FBI, CIA,
Welfare, Immigration or our local government and police, can obtain your
individual responses. Moreover, the information cannot and will not be
used for any municipal code enforcement.
The Special Census is
important to all residents of Lakemoor because we will be reimbursed funds from
the State of Illinois from State Income Tax and Motor Fuel Tax based on the
number of people who reside in our Village. Let us not allow Lakemoor’s
share to be distributed elsewhere in the State. Be counted and help us to
conduct an accurate Special Census.
Any questions concerning
the Special Census should be directed to the Special Census Hotline at (815)
385-4629 between 9 AM and 8 PM Monday through Friday and 9 AM to Noon on
Saturday.
Your cooperation is greatly appreciated and necessary
for a fair and accurate count of Lakemoor residents.

correct and complete. Each vehicle must have year, make, model and license
plate information on the form. Also check that your name and address are

the form, or you did not receive a renewal form, stop in or call the Village
Hall for applications. Please note: Vehicle Stickers will not be issued if

are also required to have state license and vehicle stickers on antique
vehicles.
BOAT STICKERS
Residents -
Free
Nonresidents - $30
For enforcement purposes, all boats using the Route 120 boat ramp must
have a sticker. Nonresident fees help defray the cost of ramp
maintenance.
If you’re fishing, don’t forget you need an Illinois
fishing license.
LAKE MAINTENANCE
As
in past years, the lake will again be treated to control unwanted weeds and
algae. This treatment poses no threat to humans and animals. The
health department also tests water quality on a scheduled basis. If a
concern arises regarding water quality and safety the lake will be posted
accordingly. What can you do? Do not handle lake vegetation.
Any fragments of Eurasian Watermilfoil can float to other parts of the lake,
root and spread rapidly. Boats should be cleaned before and after lake use
to deter the transfer or reintroduction of contaminants.
