Stay at Home Order

On March 31, 2020 Governor Pritzker extended the Stay at Home Order through April 30, 2020. The Stay at Home Order requires everyone to stay in their homes to prevent the further spread of COVID-19. The order prohibits things like visiting other people’s homes (except to provide care or supplies) and gatherings of more than 10 people and closes all nonessential establishments, including most retail, recreation and entertainment businesses. It does NOT prohibit essential activities like going to the grocery store, receiving medical care, or taking your pet for a walk. It is critical that everyone follows this order to do their part to help avoid spreading the virus. As a reminder all playgrounds are closed per the Governor’s order. Parks and trails remain open at this time, but social distancing must be followed if they are used. This means that large groups should not congregate on basketball and tennis courts, around lakes and in ball fields. To learn more about the Stay at Home Order click here.

April 14, 2020 Village Board Meeting

The Village Board will hold a virtual Village Board meeting on April 14, 2020 at 8:00 p.m. Members of the public may attend the meeting via phone or a GoToMeeting link online. Details for participating in the meeting will be included in the meeting agenda which will be posted on the Village website here on April 9, 2020. The meeting agenda includes a public hearing for the Village’s FY 20/21 budget. Public comments can be submitted prior to the meeting at vol@libertyville.com. All comments submitted in advance of the meeting will be read aloud into the record. An additional public hearing will be held on the budget once Village operations re-open to the public.

Vehicle Sticker Extension and Water Bill Late Fee Reminder

In light of the circumstances due to the COVID-19 situation, the Village is extending the purchase deadline of annual vehicle stickers from May 1, 2020 to July 1, 2020. Residents do not need to purchase or display the 2020-2021 vehicle sticker until July 1, 2020. Vehicle sticker purchases can be made via mail (recommended) or walk-up to the Police Department Records Division at 200 E. Cook Avenue. As the Village’s Finance Department is operating on a reduced schedule, please allow between two to three weeks for mailed vehicle sticker orders to be fulfilled.
