LEAF COLLECTION UPDATE:
As the fall season begins, the Village is working with LRS on a plan to collect leaves from residents impacted by the Lincolnshire Drive South Drainage Improvement project. The curbside leaf collection program does not begin until the week of October 19.
In the coming weeks, residents are asked not to place leaves in the parkway to allow construction crews unhindered access to the parkway areas as they work on getting the final sections of curb installed, utility structures adjusted, and final layers of asphalt placed.
Detailed leaf pickup instructions will be distributed to all impacted residents on Lincolnshire Drive and Wiltshire Drive in the coming weeks. If you have specific concerns regarding leaf collection, please contact Public Works at 847-913-2380.

2026 Lincolnshire Drive South Area Improvement Project
In October of 2020, the Village Board approved the start of engineering design for drainage improvements in the areas on Lincolnshire Drive and Wiltshire Drive. These areas have historically experienced flooding during significant rainfall events, and when the Des Plaines River reaches flood stage.
In 2025, the Village secured bond funding for this project to allow construction to begin in the spring of 2026. The project will include a new and enlarged storm sewer system, construction of a stormwater lift station to pump stormwater off of roadways, a new water main, and fully reconstructed pavement.
Drainage improvements on the southern portion of Lincolnshire Drive include a new storm sewer along Lincolnshire Drive south starting near 82 Lincolnshire Drive and moving south towards Wiltshire Drive and ending at Londonderry Lane.
A public meeting was held in November of 2025 to explain the project in greater detail.
For a more detailed description of the project, view the Village’s interactive map.
