The clerk's office handles meeting minutes, official town records, and public document requests. If you need a specific record or want to check on a town ordinance, the clerk is the right call.

Note: Cicero's 8AM to 6PM hours give you an extra hour compared to most nearby offices, so use that late window if you call after five.

Cook County Phone Directory

Cicero sits in Cook County. County-level offices handle property taxes, court filings, vital records, the sheriff, and elections. These are separate from town services. If your question involves a county matter rather than something the Town of Cicero handles, you need the Cook County phone directory. The main Cook County number is 312-443-5500. Because Cook County is the largest county in Illinois, its phone directory is extensive, with dozens of departments and sub-offices.

For most day-to-day needs in Cicero, the town government is the right call. Police, fire, public works, town permits, and local ordinances go through the Town of Cicero. Property assessments, county courts, and the Cook County Clerk go through the county. Knowing the difference will save you time and keep you from getting sent back and forth between offices.
