Administrator proposes eliminating cemetery director position; responsibilities to be redistributed
Summary
Administrator Kicker presented ordinance 2026‑02 to remove the cemetery director position from village code and distribute duties among existing staff, saying the change would save a few thousand dollars and not harm customer service; the item was a first reading with no action.
Administrator Kicker told the board that following the cemetery director’s November resignation she is proposing ordinance 2026‑02 to amend village code (chapter 2 and chapter 14) to eliminate the standalone cemetery director position and distribute those responsibilities among current staff.
"I'm proposing an amendment to the village code… that effectively removes the cemetery director position and those responsibilities will be dispersed amongst current staff," Administrator Kicker said, adding the change would save the village a few thousand dollars and she did not anticipate negative impacts to cemetery customer service. Trustees asked clarifying questions; staff characterized the amendment as straightforward. Because this was a first reading, no formal action was taken.
