Waverly council appoints wastewater superintendent and hires full-time police officer
Summary
The council unanimously approved the appointment of Jesse Conway as wastewater superintendent (starting $25.19/hour) and hired Conley as a full‑time police officer with a reported start date of July 29, 2024; the council also completed an oath of office.
The Waverly Village Council on July 24 voted to appoint Jesse Conway as superintendent of the village wastewater treatment plant and to hire a full‑time police officer, actions carried by unanimous roll call votes.
John Gideon, reporting for the Personnel Committee, moved to recommend Jesse Conway for superintendent with a starting pay of $25.19 per hour and an effective date of July 28, 2024. "I would like to make a motion to recommend Jesse Conway for the position of superintendent...the starting pay of $25.19 per hour," Gideon said. The motion was seconded and approved by roll call (Gideon; Sheridan; Forest Blakeman; Bans; Patterson voting yes).
Separately, the council accepted the resignation of Officer Megan Burgess and moved to hire Conley as a full‑time police officer. The transcript records a stated effective start date of Monday, July 29, 2024 and a pay rate read aloud as "$123 an hour" (the recording is garbled and the precise hourly rate is unclear in the transcript). The council completed oath and swearing-in language on the record.
Both personnel actions were approved by unanimous roll calls. The meeting record does not include additional personnel files or background checks beyond the committee recommendation noted for the wastewater superintendent.
