CMAP COUNTY BOARD CHAIRS MEETING
The Cook and Collar County Board Chairs met last month to discuss the impact of the
state budget impasse, including the financial strain it is placing on Illinois counties and,
specifically, the child support enforcement program which the state delegates to counties
through a contractual relationship.
The Chairs continue to advance its regional economic development collaborative and we
have made significant progress. The group expressed an interest in formalizing the
partnership so that we can build on our past successes and enhance current programs
like the Metals Consortium and Metro Export Initiative.
We also received an update on a proposal CMAP is working on to fund regional
infrastructure.

Lake County Board Meeting Minutes - Final June 14, 2016
Lake County Partners Big Event
Many of us attended the Lake County Partners “Big Event” earlier this month. The
breakfast focused on growing our human capital in Lake County. Attendees heard from
speakers about the performance of the national and local economy as well as
employment, workforce, housing and other key trends that influence Lake County’s
attractiveness. Much of the presentation supported the work that we have been doing
with our Leadership Lake County initiative to attract and retain young professionals to live
and work in Lake County.
Tour of Lake County Innovation Center in Libertyville with Vice-Chair Calabresa
Vice Chair Carol Calabresa, Kevin Considine for Lake County Partners and I recently
toured the Lake County Innovation Center in Libertyville. The office campus is currently
being redeveloped from the old Motorola facility into a new, vibrant office park that aims
to attract life science and high tech companies to the approximately one million square
foot space. The center is anticipated to be completed in the next several months.
LAW AND JUDICIAL
911 Task Force Meeting
I convened a 911 Task Force meeting on May 25th at the Department of Transportation
to further the discussion on regional 911 consolidations among the Task Force members.
At the meeting, staff provided an update on the progress of the LCETSB feasibility study
in addition to presenting research on “lessons learned” from successful consolidations in
other jurisdictions nationwide. I intend to bring the group back together following the
completion of the next phase of the LCETSB feasibility study.
Lake County Police Memorial
I had the honor of speaking at this year’s police memorial to honor our fallen Lake County
officers. It was a very touching tribute to our men and women in blue that put their lives
on the line to make Lake County safe. I want to thank Sheriff Curran, Undersheriff Rose,
State’s Attorney Nerheim and Lake County Chiefs of Police Association President
Tannahill for making this such a successful memorial.

Board of Health Report.
Summer Activity Reminders
Memorial Day marks the unofficial start of summer and the Lake County Health
Department has begun monitoring the over 100 licensed swimming beaches in Lake
County. Daily updates on beach conditions can be found on the Health Department
website.
On June 1st, the Health Department began monitoring mosquito populations,
particularly the species that carry disease such as West Nile virus. The Health
Department will also be deploying additional mosquito traps to determine if the mosquito
Aedes albopictus, the Asian Tiger mosquito, is present in Lake County. This mosquito,
which to date has not been found in Lake County, may be capable of transmitting Zika
virus.
Ticks are still very active and Deer ticks in particular, which transmit Lyme and other
diseases, have been on the increase in recent years. There have been 104 human
cases of Lyme disease from 2013 – 2015 in Lake County. As people go outside to enjoy
warmer weather they should remember to protect themselves and their families against
ticks.
Health Department Offers Free Tests at Health Fair on June 27
The Health Department, the Lake County Stands Against Stigma Coalition and other
community partners have organized a free health fair in observance of National HIV
Testing Day.
The event will be held on Monday, June 27, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., on the front
lawn of the Belvidere Medical Building, 2400 Belvidere Rd., Waukegan (near the corner
of Belvidere Road and Keller Avenue).
In addition to free health and community resources, free HIV tests (for people 13 and
older) and hepatitis C tests (for people 18 and older) will be available. A finger stick will
be used for the HIV and hepatitis C testing. Results are available within 20 minutes.
Information about viral hepatitis and sexually transmitted infections will also be available.
New Program Quickly Links Individuals to Treatment
Individuals struggling with substance abuse are now getting linked to treatment faster
through a pilot program launched by the Lake County Opioid Initiative called “A Way
Out”.
Lake County Illinois Page 14 of 19
Lake County Board Meeting Minutes - Final June 14, 2016
The program is being offered 24 hours a day, 365 days a year at participating police
departments across Lake County. Individuals, who possess narcotics or paraphernalia,
enter a participating police department and tell an officer they are requesting help. The
program is set up so that participants will not be criminally charged.
The Health Department will provide screenings over the phone to determine the
appropriate course of treatment services, and will make arrangements for either
outpatient or inpatient services. Those unable to pay for treatment due to lack of
insurance or financial resources will not be turned away. For more information visit the “A
Way Out” website at: awayoutlc.org.
Medication-Assisted Treatment
The Health Department has received funding from the Health Resources and Services
Administration to expand its Medication-Assisted Treatment program (MAT). The
expansion is part of the Health Department’s comprehensive approach to address
increased heroin/opioid use in the county.
To date, 85 lives have been saved in Lake County through the use of naloxone. But
individuals who are saved, and others facing similar addictions, need to be connected to
evidence-based treatment or they are likely to continue their use.
The HRSA grant is doubling the Health Department’s capacity to provide this
treatment at its 3004 Grand Avenue building in Waukegan.
An event to announce this expansion will take place Monday, June 27, from 10 to
11:30 a.m. at our 3010 Grand Avenue building in Waukegan.

Lake County Partners Report.
LAKE COUNTY PARTNERS COUNTY BOARD UPDATE
JUNE 2016
Big Event Recap
Lake County Partners is pleased to report that the organization’s second annual “Big
Event” was held at the Lincolnshire Marriott Resort on June 3rd for a sold-out crowd of
business and community leaders. This year, over 570 people registered for the event,
and it was sponsored by 36 businesses and organizations, including Lake County.
Guests were given an opportunity to network and a content-rich program which included:
remarks on Lake County Partners and local economic development activities by Lake
County Partners Board Chairman Joseph Luna, an economic update from Dr. Steve Vogt
of Mesirow Financial, a county leadership update from Lake County Board Chairman
Aaron Lawlor and a keynote address by urban geographer and acclaimed author Joel
Kotkin. Kotkin discussed the themes of his recent book release The Human City, which
uses demographic data to predict that the suburbs are positioned for future growth and
success, particularly as Millennials begin to embark on the next stage of their lives.
Every person in attendance received a signed copy of Kotkin’s new book, as well as Lake
County Partner’s new Annual Report, which can be found online at
www.lakecountypartners.com
The event was widely covered in the media, with stories in Crain’s Chicago Business, the
Chicago Tribune and the Daily Herald. Following the Big Event, Joel Kotkin was
interviewed on WBEZ Chicago’s Morning Shift radio program, where he discussed
demographic shifts and Lake County’s robust economy and anticipated future success.
Economic Development Success Story: thredUP, Village of Vernon Hills
thredUP, the leading online marketplace to buy and sell like-new women’s and kids’
clothing, has experienced tremendous growth over the last 18 months. The company was
in search of a large Midwest distribution center that would serve as a model for their
continual operational expansion, and there was an immediate need to hire and train 300
staff members quickly.
After discussing opportunities with Lake County Partners and evaluating several locations
in the Midwest, thredUP chose to occupy a 145,000 sq. ft. facility in Vernon Hills due to
the presence of Lake County’s highly skilled workforce. Lake County Partners connected
thredUP with the Lake County Workforce Development Department, and they have
worked with the company to hold custom hiring events and assist with the recruitment of
new team members.
