To honor our veterans this year Lake County Clerk Robin M. O'Connor was at the dedication of the Lake County Veteran's Memorial at Waukegan National Airport, after the morning's parade through Downtown Waukegan. Alongside veterans and active members of the United States Armed Forces the memorial's dedication was to honor past and present service as well as to educate future generations.

The memorial prominently showcases a historic A F-111A Aardvark, retired in 1996 but restored for display and public education.

Going Mobile with the
Mobile Satellite Office

Our mobile satellite office has been launched and will complement County Clerk processes. We are committed to expanding our operations and allow the greatest number of services to go mobile while still adhering to State Laws and County Ordinances. We look forward to taking our Mobile Services to school campuses, senior centers, festivals and other county locations. The vehicle’s modern design allows us to move easily across the four corners of our county.

The mobile satellite office was purchased through private grant funding and not taxpayer dollars.
