Millville to name Derek Leary permanent construction official to meet statutory requirement
Summary
A resolution was introduced to appoint Derek Leary as Millville's permanent construction official after his temporary appointment period expired; staff said the move is to ensure statutory compliance rather than to change hours or title responsibilities.
Mayor Dixon told the commission that state law requires the city to have a construction official and introduced a resolution to name Derek Leary as the city's permanent construction official. "This is, the city is required to have a construction an official construction official," Mayor Dixon said, and noted Leary has already been serving in the role temporarily.
Staff clarified the appointment does not change Leary's hours or duties: he "does work part time, at this point, but he still will be considered our permanent" construction official. Commissioners said the 60‑day temporary allowance following the prior official's retirement had expired, and appointing Leary was framed as staying in compliance with the requirement.
