White Oak council approves police retirement payout and conditional hire
Summary
Council approved the retirement payout for Officer Ken Worley, effective Feb. 8, 2026, and authorized a conditional offer of employment to Ignatius Bondi (ranked No. 7 on the civil service list) for an entry-level police officer position; both measures passed by voice vote.
The White Oak Borough Council approved a retirement payout for police officer Ken Worley, effective Feb. 8, 2026, and authorized a conditional offer of employment to Ignatius Bondi during its Feb. 9 special meeting.
Speaker 5 reported Worley’s retirement and moved to approve payment of his accrued time benefits 'as per the collective bargaining agreement.' The motion was seconded and approved by voice vote; the transcript records 'Aye' and 'Motion passed' but does not include a roll-call tally.
Speaker 5 also moved to approve a conditional offer of employment to Ignatius Bondi, described in the transcript as having a final ranking of number 7 on the civil service commission’s certified list for entry-level police officer. That motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The transcript refers to the police department as the 'Whitehead Borough Police Department' in one line; the proper municipal name is White Oak Borough Police Department (see audit notes).
