Confusion About the New LRS Garbage Bill

There has been considerable confusion regarding the recent Lakeshore Recycling Systems (LRS) garbage bill for residents in unincorporated Lake Villa.
LRS entered into a five-year contract that began in May 2024. Under the contract, the residential rate was set at $26.52 per month and remained frozen for the first two years. Beginning in May 2026, and each year thereafter, the contract allows for a 4% annual increase.
As a result, the monthly residential rate increased from $26.52 to $27.58 in May 2026.
The confusion stems from the way the increase was reflected on the most recent invoice:
The previous bill covering May through July 2026 was mistakenly billed at the old rate of $26.52 per month and did not include the approved rate increase.
The current bill covering August through October 2026 reflects the new rate of $27.58 per month.
In addition, LRS included a catch-up charge for the amount that was not billed on the prior invoice.
The calculation is as follows:
3 months × $27.58=$82.74Unbilled increase from May–July period$3.18Total Current Invoice for 3 months is $85.92
