Community/Economic Development

The Village of Round Lake was incorporated in 1908 and celebrated its Centennial in 2008.  Round Lake has been a progressive Village growing to the current population of approximately 17,000.  Retail opportunities abound as the population continues to grow.  Retail centers and outlots are immediately available for viable businesses.  Round Lake is seeking restaurants, grocery stores and other prime retailers to join in our economic growth and to serve the many needs of our residents. 

Round Lake is also in the process of a downtown redevelopment and recently sent out a request for qualifications and proposals to developers for the Village owned parcels within the downtown district.  This project is part of the Village's vision to improve the quality of life for all of our residents.  We invite developers and interested parties to view the RFQ/RFP that is posted below.  The Village envisions a pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use downtown environment, in which, existing and new local businesses will flourish and serve as a destination for residents of Round Lake and the surrounding communities. 

The Village Officials and Staff welcome you to be a part of our economic growth and thank your for considering Round Lake for the development, expansion or revitalization of your business. 

Below are maps, plans and development brochures depicting the various retail opportunities.

Please contact Marc Huber, Village Administrator with your interest, proposal or questions at 847-546-5400 or via email
