COMMUNITY  NEWS AND EVENTS

Message From Mayor Dr. Michael Bruno 

Welcome to Village of Winthrop Harbor's E-News Program. We are happy to have you as a member of our community.

It is our priority to provide our residents, businesses, and visitors with the best possible municipal services. Communication is a vital role of our Village government; the Village of Winthrop Harbor has initiated this program to better communicate with our community.

Recognition for Bill Stried - 20 Years of Service on the Planning and Zoning Board

The Mayor and Village Board recognized Bill Stried for his 20 years of service to the Winthrop Harbor Community as a Planning and Zoning Board Member.

Bill recently stepped down. We thank him for his service and dedication to our great community.

Winthrop Harbor Fire Department Joint Training

Last week, the Pleasant Prairie Fire and Rescue and Winthrop Harbor Fire Department held a joint training exercise. The crews trained on high-rise and parking garage fires as well as ladder truck operations.

The sharing of these resources ensures our public safety teams are ready to respond to any incident in our community and surrounding area. We are very fortunate to be in an area where collaboration between communities is a key part of our operations.
