The Lake County Technology Committee convened on August 1, 2025, to discuss key developments in security enhancements for county facilities. The meeting, which allowed for both in-person and remote attendance, was called to order at 8:30 AM and included a roll call of members present.

A significant decision made during the meeting was the approval of a joint resolution to execute a contract with PACE Systems Inc. from Naperville, Illinois. This contract, valued at $52,457.85, will fund the installation of access control security cameras and intrusion alarm systems at a new warehouse located at 33740 to 3742 Hawthorne Court in Waukegan. The project is crucial as it supports the county clerk's relocation to this new facility and is fully funded by the county clerk's office.

The committee unanimously approved the motion to proceed with the contract, highlighting the collaborative effort to enhance security measures within county operations. Director of Facilities and Construction Services, Carl Carr, emphasized the importance of this project in ensuring the safety and security of county assets.

In addition to this key resolution, the meeting included a consent agenda that was also approved without opposition. There were no public comments or unfinished business discussed, indicating a focused agenda aimed at advancing the county's technological and security infrastructure.

As Lake County moves forward with these enhancements, the community can expect improved safety measures that align with the county's commitment to secure and efficient operations.
