LCDOT holding Cedar Lake Road realignment public hearing May 18 The Lake County Division of Transportation (LCDOT) is hosting a public hearing for the proposed improvement plan for Cedar Lake Road between Nippersink Road and Hart Road in the Village of Round Lake. The hearing will take place on Wednesday, May 18 from 5-7 p.m. at Magee Middle School. The purpose of the meeting is to present the preferred alternative, findings of the environmental studies, and collect public input. The preferred alternative improvement consists of realigning Cedar Lake Road to the west with a new at-grade crossing with the railroad. Improvements to Metra’s Milwaukee District North Round Lake station site, a new bike path and sidewalks are being proposed as well. The meeting will consist of a presentation starting at 5:15 p.m. followed by an opportunity for the public to provide a two-minute statement to a court reporter regarding the project. After the opportunity for public comment, the project team will be available to discuss the project and answer questions.

Newest sheriff’s canines named by Lake County students Sheriff John D. Idelburg and the Lake County Sheriff’s Canine Unit announced the names of the two newest sheriff’s canines. From March 4-25 Lake County youth submitted their suggested names for the new canines. Nearly 400 kids submitted their preferred name for the canines. The names selected for our two newest canines are Canine Axel and Canine Echo. Deerfield High School Sophomore Ethan Jacobs as well

as Vernon Hills Hawthorn Middle School 6th graders Matthew Prigorenko and Carson Alper selected the name Axel. Millburn Elementary School Kindergartener Charlotte Regner selected the name Echo. All four students will be invited to participate in K9 Echo & Axel’s swearing-in ceremony in late-June, following the completion of the initial training. Deputy Tyler Girmscheid was partnered with Canine Echo and Deputy Kevin

Gauer was partnered with Canine Axel. The two deputies and their new canine partners are completing an intense eight-week initial training program at Tops K9 in Grayslake. The training consists of canine psychology, obedience, agility, tracking, scent detection, and more. Sheriff Idleburg said, “We always enjoy getting the youth involved in various aspects of our office and I have to say, the names they submitted were terrific!

Some of the submissions had inspiring meaning behind the names and some of the submissions had us chuckling. We are looking forward to having Ethan, Matthew, Carson, and Charlotte join us at their swearing-in ceremony.” Canines Axel and Echo join their other sheriff’s canine partners Dax, Duke, Danno, Ryker, and Boomer to bring the total number of Lake County Sheriff’s Canines to seven.

About the project LCDOT is currently studying the realignment of Cedar Lake Road in downtown Round Lake. Realigning the road has been discussed since the 1970s as an opportunity for the Village of Round Lake to redevelop its central business district. In 2012, this section of Cedar Lake Road was jurisdictionally transferred to Lake County from the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). Since then, Lake County has been working with the Village on the possibility of a realignment project. Currently, the project is in preliminary engineering phase and a preferred alternative detailing the improvements has been established. The public is encouraged to learn more about the project and provide their thoughts on the progress so far at the upcoming public hearing. The meeting is being held at Magee Middle School, 500 N. Cedar Lake Road, Round Lake and will be accessible to individuals with disabilities. Anyone needing special assistance should contact Chuck Gleason, LCDOT Phase I Project Manager at 847-377-7447 at least five days prior to the meeting.
