Madison council confirms Jason Chapman as acting village administrator in 3-2 vote
Summary
Mayor Britton appointed Jason Chapman as Acting Village Administrator and council confirmed the appointment by recorded vote, 3 yeas and 2 nays; the transcript records a vote inconsistency that is noted in council minutes.
Mayor Britton announced the appointment of Jason Chapman as Acting Village Administrator and asked council to confirm the appointment under Madison Village Code Section 131.04.
A motion to confirm the appointment was made and seconded; the roll-call result was recorded as 3 yeas and 2 nays and the motion carried. The transcript records Mr. Lee and Mr. Vest as voting no while Mr. Vest is also shown as having moved the confirmation, a discrepancy recorded in the meeting minutes. The minutes show the motion carried despite this internal inconsistency in the roll-call record.
Mayor Britton also used the time to thank Administrator Mr. Bailey, noting that Dec. 23 was Mr. Bailey’s last council meeting and that his final working day with the village would be Dec. 31, 2024. Multiple council members publicly thanked Mr. Bailey for his service and his role in local projects such as the Route 90 interchange.
What’s next: Jason Chapman will serve in the acting administrator role pending administrative transition; the council record indicates staff follow-up for onboarding and related administrative tasks.
