The Twin Lakes Village Board at a special board meeting Monday enacted a new speed limit of 55 mph for any boat on Lakes Mary and Elizabeth.
Village ordinances previously did not specify a maximum speed limit.
Violators of the speed limit can be fined $155.50.
“There are only a few boats that can hit those speeds,” said Trustee Kevin Fitzgerald.
The speed limit “shall not apply to police patrol boats in situations involving emergencies, or while
engaged in law enforcement, nor to boats participating in a duly authorized race, regatta or water ski meet duly
authorized by a permit while operating in the designated area authorized by said permit,” the new ordinance language says.

The Twin Lakes Village Board selected a contractor for its multi-million dollar wastewater treatment system at Monday’s regular meeting.
The work will go to Joseph J. Henderson, Inc. of Gurnee, Ill. in an amount not to exceed $11,828,000.
Henderson’s bid was the lowest of three submitted.
“It’s basically at budget for what we planned on over the last year,” said Greg Droessler, village engineer.
The project includes upgrades at the wastewater treatrment plant, most of the village’s 12 lift stations, construction of a new garage, a sludge storage tank, a sludge thickening building and an electrical building. Besides increasing capacity to required levels, the sludge related aspects should allow the village to greatly reduce sludge removal costs by allowing sludge to be pumped and removed from the plant site less often.
