Council retroactively appoints Mark Zigler as code enforcement officer despite residency objection
Summary
The Personnel Committee recommended Mark Zigler for code enforcement and council voted to appoint him retroactively; Councilor Uber opposed the motion citing residency concerns and the council approved the appointment.
Union City Borough Council on July 9 retroactively appointed Mark Zigler as Code Enforcement Officer after the Personnel Committee recommended him following an interview.
The minutes show Mark Zigler is available to begin virtual training on the iWorqs permitting software on July 12, 2024, but cannot begin on‑the‑job duties until July 29. Councilor Osborn moved and Councilor Joyce seconded the retroactive appointment. Councilor Uber opposed the motion on the grounds that Zigler should reside in the borough; despite that objection the motion carried.
Council recorded no specific vote tally in the minutes beyond noting Uber's opposition. The council did not record conditions or amendments to the appointment; training and start dates were presented as the candidate’s availability.
