The Village Board of Trustees met last Monday evening, and one person stated the following during public comment:
“My name is (name). I live at (address). I’ve been a resident of Barrington Hills for eighteen years. I’m the Deputy Clerk and I also sit on the Plan Commission.
I’m here tonight to express my opinion that I think it’s inappropriate to have a family member of an employee (Building Department) that’s a spouse of the Village President. I believe the situation doesn’t reflect favorably on the Village of Barrington Hills. I think it exposes us to criticism, conflict of interest, favoritism, nepotism – any number of words that you can come up with.
In my opinion, no Village employee should be related to any of the Trustees. I think that’s best. I think just the situation in this particular situation – because it’s the Village President and his spouse – it just accentuates it a little more as a potential conflict of interest, so, that’s my comment.”
Her comments begin at the 00:40 minute mark of Monday’s meeting recording found here.
We applaud this resident for coming forward and voicing what others believe, and we agree.
