A resident is defined as one whose "principal residence" is within the corporate limits of the Village of Lake Zurich. Acceptable proofs of residency may include a tax bill or a Lake Zurich water bill. In the case of those persons who rent or lease their place of principal residence, you may use your rental or lease agreement as proof of residency.

The Village of Lake Zurich does not cover participants in recreational programs with accident insurance.

The Village of Lake Zurich is subject to the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. Individuals with disabilities, who require certain accommodations in order to allow them to participate in recreation programs, are requested to contact the Village’s ADA Coordinator at (847) 438-5141.

The Lake Zurich Police and Fire Departments want to make everyone aware of a new program to help police and fire personnel by providing vital information on cell phones. In Case of Emergency (ICE) numbers on your cell phone assist emergency services personnel in contacting family members or friends on your behalf. Cell phone users can easily create entries such as "ICE-Mom" or "ICE-Katie" to let emergency workers know quickly who to contact if they are unable to communicate. Pamphlets with additional information may be picked up at the Barn in Paulus Park, 200 S. Rand Road, Buffalo Creek Park, 675 Old Mill Grove Road or the Lake Zurich Police Department at 200 Mohawk Trail.
