Light topples challenger in Glendale Heights board race

Glendale Heights Village Board incumbent Michael Light fended off a challenge from Michael Summerville for the District 3 trustee seat in the village's only contested race Tuesday.

Unofficial vote tallies showed Light received 223 votes to Summerville's 147 votes.

"I'm looking forward really to working toward bringing in more businesses into Glendale Heights," said Light, a 48-year resident who has served on the village board since 2011. "And helping out with our North Avenue corridor."

H. William Schmidt and Pat Maritato ran uncontested in districts 1 and 4.
