It is a true privilege and honor to serve the residents of Round Lake Beach as Mayor. I’m a retired Chicago Police Officer with a Bachelor’s in Applied Science in Law Enforcement and have vast experience in the Public Service field and Parliamentary Procedures.
My wife Julie and I feel privileged to raise our children Maegan and Nathan in such a welcoming community.
Former President of PLEA (Professional Law Enforcement Association), Director & Vice President of the Round Lake Beach Cultural & Civic Center Foundation and Commissioner of the Round Lake Area Park District.
I understand the value and importance of the community and will commit to being loyal and endorse our community’s mission without reservation. As Mayor I hope to contribute my 25+ years in community service involvement and do what I can to help our village reach its full potential.
I, along with this trusted Board’s approval, hope to nurture all of those seeds Mayor Hill planted, grow our community outreach, foster in new and diverse economic development, encourage stronger relationships within our community members, enhance safety and security for all of our residents, and solidify a true partnership between the People and their Government.
