Mt Prospect Fire Chief Brian Lambel
After 21 years with the Mount Prospect Fire Dept. and the last five years at its helm, Fire Chief Brian Lambel is leaving the department at the end of April and will assume the chief’s position in Wilmette.
Lambel, 52, who grew up in Mount Prospect and plans to continue living in the village, said he was contemplating retiring in the next 1-2 years, but when Wilmette approached him about the position, he decided it would be a good fit to serve that community.
Lambel began his fire career in Lincolnshire-Riverwoods in 1990 and came to Mount Prospect in 2000. He took over as chief five years ago when former chief John Malcolm took the top position in Lake Zurich.
