Union City council hires Kenneth Fye as part-time police officer
Summary
Union City Borough Council voted Aug. 13, 2024 to hire Kenneth Fye from the certified civil service list as a part-time police officer, citing cost savings and improved coverage; the move was approved unanimously.
The Union City Borough Council on Aug. 13 approved hiring Kenneth Fye from the certified civil service list as a part-time police officer.
Councilors said the part-time hire would reduce personnel costs while improving coverage. Councilor Riley Cross said the cost “won’t be as much,” and Councilor Matt Joyce said a part-time officer “will be good to have for more coverage.” Borough Manager Cindy Wells told council the final cost depends on hours worked; the borough budget had allowed at least $33,560 for wages and benefits and Wells said the part-time hire would come in below that figure. The motion, made by Councilor Joyce and seconded by Councilor Osborn, carried unanimously.
