Municipal Member Benefits

 

LCML Membership has value

LCML is the largest municipal council of government in Lake County and the only council dedicated exclusively to Lake County municipalities.

Benefits

Membership meetings
Regularly scheduled membership meetings with relevant, timely speakers and topics and a forum for business and community leaders to identify and discuss issues that affect local units of government.

Information sharing
Peer-to-Peer learning and information exchanges among members. Our members learn from others’ experiences and build capacity through this sharing via online and in person.

Cooperative purchasing program
We provide a consensus-based purchasing program for various municipal services to leverage collective buying power. Past co-op programs included crack sealing, pavement marking, street sweeping, and pavement patching.

Consensus-based, targeted advocacy
LCML leads consensus-based, targeted advocacy on high priority issues.  We identify and confirm the focus areas for the organization.  We monitor legislation of municipal interest and work to impact and influence legislation through one-on-one meetings with our Lake County delegation, an annual legislative breakfast, calls-to-action, annual trip to Springfield and other means.

Continuous engagement
Our newly redesigned interactive website with a comprehensive suite of tools allows for deeply social, real-time activism, engagement and collaboration.

Value
We understand municipal budgets are tight and we work diligently to provide high value for reasonable dues and are dedicated to exclusively serving municipalities in Lake County.
