The Lake County Clerk of the Circuit Court & Comptroller will host a week-long event to help those with suspended driver licenses, those nearing a suspension, or persons in past-due collections, save money on select delinquent fines and fees.
Dubbed “Operation Green Light,” this annual event is a coordinated initiative hosted by clerks’ offices throughout the state. Lake County’s event will take place from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., March 28 – April 1.
“If you’ve fallen behind on paying your overdue court obligations, then this annual event is designed to assist you with getting back on track,” said Gary Cooney, Lake County Clerk of the Circuit Court & Comptroller. “Our goal is to help customers get their driver’s license reinstated, or avoid being suspended, by offering incentives for paying in full, reducing the cost of the fees owed, or establishing a payment plan.”
The Operation Green Light event will accommodate payments online after a customer has coordinated payment terms with a payment clerk. To begin the process of establishing payment terms electronically, email GreenLight@LakeCountyClerk.org. Those wishing to pay in person can do so at the Lake County Courthouse, 550 W. Main St., First Floor, East Wing, Tavares.
In most instances, those who pay their obligations in full, or establish a monthly payment plan by 5 p.m. on Friday, April 1 will be able to have their driver’s license reinstated, all while saving money.
