The Lake County Treasurer’s Office and Board of Lake County Commissioners welcomed two dozen local businesses, chamber representatives, and government officials to the inaugural meeting of the “Lake County Business Roundtable Discussion Series”. The roundtable served as an open forum for local businesses to share their experiences over the previous 18 months and provide opinions on improving the local business environment.
In addition to the County Commissioners, representatives from various other County agencies, including the Lake Development Authority, Planning and Community Development, and the Department of Utilities were in attendance to answer questions and address concerns presented by the business community.
“Today’s meeting was a great opportunity for me to simply listen and absorb first-hand all the needs, ideas, and expectations of our business community,” said Commission President John R. Hamercheck. “I am so pleased by the turnout and enthusiasm represented here today that has further educated our Board along with other county departments. We have no doubt that Lake County businesses will continue to rebound and ultimately set the stage for even more new ones to join our community.” Please click here to view the entire news release.
