Title:  

Tarkowski Property, Wauconda; Unicorporated Lake County Near the Village of Wauconda

 
 Volume/Number:  2006 December 
 Issuing Agency:   
 Description:  The John Tarkowski property is 16 acres in unincorporated Lake County near the Village of Wauconda (map attached). Public records show that Mr. Tarkowski has been illegally receiving waste material at his property since the late 1960s, and Lake County as well as the State of Illinois and U.S. EPA have pursued legal actions against Mr. Tarkowski since that time. Although the judgment of more than one court determined that Mr. Tarkowski should remove various waste materials and adhere to deed restrictions, zoning ordinances and state laws regulating permitting of landfills, the problem persisted. Extensive litigation by the local, state and federal authorities has taken place relative to this site. The printable map referenced in the fact sheet will be included as a separate pdf attachment.
