Council moves to confirm prosecutor and previews law‑director agreement
Summary
Council advanced an appointment of Shireen McGee as village prosecutor with a suspension of rules so the position would be effective Jan. 1 and discussed a law‑director services agreement with Steven L. Byron for 2026 (vote deferred to January).
Councilors approved measures at the Dec. 10 meeting to put prosecutors and legal services in place for the start of 2026.
On Ordinance 2025‑27, members moved to suspend the rules and confirm the appointment of Shireen McGee as Orange Village prosecutor so she would be in place on Jan. 1; the suspension and the ordinance motion were carried by roll call. The council also discussed an ordinance (second reading) authorizing the mayor to enter into a 2026 legal‑services agreement with Steven L. Byron and Singerman, Mills, Dasburg & Coinc Company LPA to confirm Steven L. Byron as law director; the council was told the law‑director ordinance would be voted on in January.
Council made the suspension motions and approvals openly on the record; members indicated the moves were intended to ensure continuity of legal representation and prosecutorial coverage at the turn of the year.
Next steps: the law‑director agreement will return on the January agenda for a recorded vote.
