Summary
Management intern Gavin Denning reviewed internship work—trustee onboarding, wage-scale study, ClearGov budget book, mural coordination and community projects—and said his internship continues remotely through the academic year; trustees praised his work.
Gavin Denning, the village management intern, gave a year‑in‑review of his summer projects and proposed next steps for student internships. He described deliverables including a trustee onboarding handbook, a wage scale study in development, ClearGov budget‑book work for 2026–27, community mural coordination and running the pickleball tournament.
