Stolman to run for Lake County treasurer

Former Lake County Board chairman and current board member David Stolman announced his candidacy Monday for Lake County Treasurer.

Stolman is seeking to replace Robert Skidmore, who last week said he would not be seeking re-election. Stolman, a Republican from Buffalo Grove, said he would advance technology in office while being “efficient” with taxpayer money.

An outspoken advocate for the Route 53 extension, Stolman said he has been a leader in economic development, helping create Lake County Partners, a nonprofit that works to create jobs and stimulate investment. He said he has been a “fiscally responsible voice” on the county board since 1992.
