Overview
The Village has been unable to fill the vacant Assistant Village Engineer (AVE) position due to the competitive job market. Staff recommends temporarily replacing the Assistant Village Engineer position with an additional Civil Engineer II (CE II) position since the Village has had more success finding qualified candidates for the CE II position.
