OPEN BURNING TEMPORARY BAN Page 1 of 4 Summary: In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and the vulnerability of persons suffering from and/or recovering from this illness, there are concerns that smoke pollution could make this respiratory illness worse. Our current Village Ordinance allows for open burning between October 1 to May 31 of each year. This Ordinance would prohibit burning effective May 5, 2020, to December 31, 2020, after which the Ordinance would revert back to current standards.

ELECTRICAL AGGREGATION PRESENTATION Summary: On August 10, 2009, Governor Patrick Quinn signed into law Public Act 096-0176, which allows municipalities to arrange for the provision of electricity to residential and small commercial retail customers by alternative electric suppliers (i.e. suppliers other than ComEd). Under this law, the municipality may seek bids for the provision of aggregate electricity supply services to their residents and small businesses. Rates are again competitive, and staff has been researching electrical aggregation in order to save residents and small businesses money on their monthly electrical bills. Staff is seeking direction to continue with NIMEC to solicit bids for supplying electricity to Lake Barrington residents.
