As a part of the Interlocal Agreement with Lake County for collection of storm debris from streets and right of ways, the Town must notify Lake County staff by the end of May each year to continue utilizing Option B of the agreement. Under Option A, the Town is solely responsible for all its collection, monitoring, and FEMA reimbursement activities. Under Option B, Lake County is the primary agent and is responsible for all of the previously mentioned services. Option B allows Town staff to immediately respond to storm damaged areas, while also allowing Lake County contractors to take over collection efforts if needed. Town staff is still in support of continuing to utilize Option B.

The Interlocal Agreement with Lake County was approved and executed in 2018, then extended in 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022. A copy of the agreement is included in the packet.
