"The quiet and serene lifestyle is what makes Mettawa so unique. It is like a little gem nestled in the suburbs full of amazing opportunities for families. We ride horses, we walk and ride bikes along the Tindall Trail into the Forest Preserves that surround our community. We watch the deer and occasional fox trot through our back yard, and we really enjoy the space our community has to offer." -Jeff

Police and Security Services

Public Safety Patrol (847) 404-6272

Mettawa patrols the village throughout the week. This resident service is provided in addition to the coverage provided by the Lake County Sheriff's department. The Mettawa Security vehicle is easily identifiable by the Mettawa Public Safety logo visible on the white pick-up truck. If you would like to have your house checked while you are out our town, please contact Mettawa Public Safety for this service.

Mettawa is dedicated to the protection and security of all residents and, in partnership with the Lake County Sheriff's department, to providing quality public safety services.

Lake County Sheriff's Department

The Village has an emergency services agreement with the Lake County Sheriff's Department. Calls made to 911 will result in a response from the Sheriff's Department. The Department also responds to automatic alarms, traffic accidents and crime incidents in our residential and commercial areas. While the Sheriff's Deputies do not provide routine patrol in the Village, they are nearby serving the unincorporated areas in southeast Lake County.

Snow and Ice Control

Mettawa salts and plows all Village owned roads so that residents can travel safely and easily during the winter months when driving tends to be most hazardous.

The implementation of one of several plowing scenarios is determined by the amount of snow and ice forecast and the duration of the storm. The goal is to have all areas plowed in a timely manner so that residents and business owners are not delayed in their travels.
