Commercial Solicitor Regulations
Spring is in the air (and Summer too, hopefully) and so are the door to door solicitors. This includes solicitors to businesses. Before engaging with any door to door solicitor ask to see their Village issued badge. (This applies to Deerfield Bannockburn and Riverwoods) All commercial solicitors are required to obtain a Village permit prior to going door to door. They are also required to carry a Village-issued badge that includes a photo, name and their company as well as an expiration date.
These regulations apply only to commercial solicitors, non-commercial solicitors asking for support for charitable, political, religious or not-for-profit organizations, are not required to register with the Village.
Please also be aware that many solicitors over the phone or in person misrepresent themselves as working with or claiming to be members of the DBR Chamber. Please check with our office if in doubt or visit the member directory on the Chamber’s website dbrchamber.com.
When in doubt about a door to door solicitor, call the Police Department.

Lake County Health Department Outdoor air monitoring is set to begin near Vantage Specialty Chemicals in Gurnee and Medline Industries in Waukegan. In partnership with the Lake County Health Department, the Village of Gurnee and City of Waukegan have hired GHD Services, Inc. to conduct the air monitoring to help officials better understand the levels of ethylene oxide (EtO) in the air. Following the recommendations of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), ten air monitors are being placed in the county at four sites near Medline, four sites near Vantage, and at two remote locations which will provide background levels of EtO. The monitors pose no health risks to residents and should not be damaged, moved, or interfered with. Monitoring locations were chosen based on U.S. EPA Air Monitoring Siting Criteria and factors such as meteorological data, facility emissions and dispersion modeling, topography, and property accessibility. Results will be shared with the public via the Health Department’s web page, www.lakecountyil.gov/eto, which includes answers to frequently asked questions (FAQs), detailed information about the County’s actions related to EtO, and contact information for the above agencies.
Zengeler Cleaners’ 2019 collection drive for prom dresses and accessories was a huge success again this year. Donations from area high schools, the Vernon Area Township Library District and Zengeler Cleaners customers netted 5,823 dresses and hundreds of other items, including shoes, hats, scarves and formal apparel accessories. This year’s collection drive supported both the Glass Slipper Project (GSP) and the Mothers Trust Foundation (MTF). Both organizations are committed to providing an opportunity for high school students who may not otherwise be able to afford the cost of prom apparel. This is Zengeler Cleaners’ first year supporting MTF, adding that organization to their 18 consecutive years of support for GSP.
