About this Article

Grayslake trustees have approved an agreement so a state agency can help the village get money from deadbeats for everything from parking tickets to water bills. Village board members this week voted to join the Illinois comptroller's local debt recovery program, a law that became effective Jan. 1. Grayslake joins only about 40 other governments statewide that so far have elected to be part of the initiative.
