Village of Round Lake Heights Board

Mayor - Terrance Lumpkins
847-546-1206 /

My name is Terry Lumpkins and I have been a resident of Round Lake Heights for over 28 years. I have been the mayor since 1993. My wife Wanda and I have been married for 26 years and have 2 children, my son Jasen is 24 and my daughter Michelle is 10. I have worked in Round Lake Heights since I was 19 years old, helping my family operate a local restaurant. In the early 90’s I broke away from the family business to eventually become the General Manager of a car dealership.

I am the President of Dollars for Scholars, which was started in 2000. Round Lake Heights was the first town in Lake County to join this program. To date we have raised more than $53,000 and given away 70 scholarships to our residents to further their education. I was a member of JAWA (Joint Action Water Agency) for 10 years. I am currently the Secretary for Cen-Com, which is the police and fire dispatch center for the Round Lake Area. I have served on many other local boards, including one of the directors of Rondaradio. I involve myself in the community whenever possible.

Since taking office in 1993, we have seen many changes in our village. One of my biggest accomplishments was the establishing of our right to buy and sell water to our area residents. This would not have taken place without the addition of two new subdivisions, Fox Glen and Chesapeake Trails. Because of the two new subdivisions our population has doubled. We also built a new Village Hall in 2001, replacing the one from the early 60’s. Another accomplishment that I am very proud of is the joint effort with the Round Lake Area Park District to increase the number of recreational parks from 1in 1993 to 5 in 2007. Another tough task was balancing the budget, which we did on a yearly basis, and the end result is a very healthy and prospering village.

I am very proud to reside in the community that I serve. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me at (847)546-1206 Office, or (847)546-7814 Home.

Trustee - Jack Germann - 847-546-4825

I moved to Indian Hill in 1957 before the village changed its name to Round Lake Heights with my Irish born wife and two children. I now have three grandkids and three great grandkids. As a current Village Trustee, I’m in charge of the ordinance committee, which enforces the law. I’m honored to serve the people.

Senior Trustee - Marva Meeks - 847-546-6490

Alternate Director to JAWA for Round Lake Consortium. I have resided with my family in Round Lake Heights for the past 32 years. I became involved in our local government 11 years ago because I wanted to make a difference. My life and our town has seen many changes during my 3 ½ terms in office. Personally the birth of seven grandchildren and governmentally a village that went from operating in the red with no full time police coverage to operating in the black and a full time police department. Our department has 4 full time and several part time officers. With new development, new parks and the recent addition of the Middle School, Round Lake Heights has grown to fold.

When I was elected to my first term the party slogan was a “Party for the People” I believe I have upheld that motto and will continue to do so.

Trustee - Mike Mahoney - 847-740-1587

My name is Michael Mahoney
My family has lived in Round Lake for sixty years. I was raised in the town of Round Lake, and I have never left the Round Lake area. I have lived in Round Lake Heights for over eleven years, and I have been on the village board for over ten years. I also have been a chairperson on the Dollars For Scholars program since it was introduced to the village.

I was asked by Mayor Lumpkins to be on the village board because of my experience with sewer and water. I have over twenty-five years of experience working with sewer and water. I have worked with sewer contractors, and then I went to the Village of Round Lake Beach public works department. I worked there for over nine years, six of those years as the foreman for the Sewer and Water Department. I have since left there and started my own business. I own Affordable Sewer & Water Services and I also own Mike’s Lakeshore Pub in unincorporated Round Lake.

I enjoy working with the community and giving back to the community that I have lived in all of my life.
