Darby Hills Takes Oath of Office
Board of Trustees Welcomes Newly-Sworn Trustee
Barrington Hills—Resident Darby Hills was sworn into the Office of Village Trustee on January 13th. “I am humbled and honored to accept this responsibility and excited to represent such an exceptional group of people, our residents, in the governance of the Village of Barrington Hills,” expressed Trustee Hills.
Trustee Hills was appointed by President Brian D. Cecola at a special Board Meeting on January 7, 2022, to fill the unexpired term of Trustee Debra Buettner, whose death created a vacancy in the Office of Trustee, with a term that expires April 2023. “I am fully confident that she will fulfill the duties of Trustee honorably and faithfully and that our residents will warmly welcome Trustee Hills,” said President Cecola.
Trustee Hills brings her legal knowledge to the Village Board from her experiences as an arbitrator, mediator, and a Cook County State’s attorney concentrating on child welfare, and from her days as a labor and employment attorney with Jackson Lewis, LLP, working on behalf of corporations.
Trustee Hills, together with her family, has resided in Barrington Hills for 15 years and is active in many of the Barrington Area non-profit organizations. In 2010, together with her husband, Thomas, she co-founded Barrington Children’s Charities to help local children living in food-insecure homes. During her free time, she enjoys outdoor sports, especially tennis, running and skiing, and loves spending time with family and friends.
