Village of Lake Barrington

What Village of Lake Barrington does

Village of Lake Barrington is a home rule municipality incorporated under Illinois state law, operating under a Board/Administrator form of government with a Village President and six elected Trustees. It provides municipal services — including public safety (Police and Fire), public works, building and zoning, garbage and recycling collection, snowplowing, electrical aggregation, voter services, and economic development programming — to approximately 5,100 residents within Lake County, Illinois. The Village maintains a lean in-house administrative staff (one part-time and four full-time employees) and supplements capacity through contractual arrangements with private vendors and intergovernmental partners such as PACE for transit and BACOG for groundwater studies.

The Village's service portfolio spans 15+ named programs organized around resident services (building permits, permits via CloudPermit, voter information, garbage/recycling/composting, electrical aggregation, PACE Dial-A-Ride), business services (licensing through CloudPermit, Grow With Us economic development, Shop Lake Barrington directory), and community lifestyle amenities (Fetherling Park, Freier Farm, Grassy Lake Trails, Community Garden). Distribution occurs through a single Village Hall at 23860 N. Old Barrington Rd. plus an online portal at lakebarrington.org that serves as the primary digital front door for permits, licenses, payments, and resident information. The Board of Trustees holds public meetings typically on the first Tuesday at 7:00 PM, and an E-News and Emergency Notification subscription service handles ongoing resident communication.

As a government entity, the Village is funded through tax revenues rather than commercial pricing, has no disclosed revenue or ARR, no parent/subsidiary structure, no private funding rounds, and no equity instruments. Operating status is active and the entity is governed by elected officials (Village President Andrew Burke; Trustees Brenda Brainerd, Richard Hayes, Susie Perkins, John Schaller, Peter Schallmoser, Therese Van Ryne) with Village Administrator Sharon L. Peterson serving as chief administrative officer. No AI/ML, API, SDK, or proprietary technology assets are disclosed.
