Barrington Hills receives Cook County grant for drainage study

The Cook County Department of Transportation and Highways has awarded Barrington Hills a $12,514 grant for a drainage study along Donlea Road between Butternut and County Line roads.

The funding will be used to conduct a study in partnership between the village and department of transportation to address the flooding challenges that previously have required the closure of Donlea Road, officials said.

The grant was one of four approved Thursday by the Cook County Board of Commissioners.
