With Mike Gracz retiring from his administrator position by mid-April, the Village of Oregon has started the process of finding his successor.
Search firm Public Administration Associates offered the Village Board a final look into the recruitment process at its Monday, Dec. 21, meeting. Trustees, with consultant Kevin Brunner, established the hiring schedule and clarified what type of candidate they are looking for. Their goal is to have the new administrator start by April 19.
By mid-February, the search firm will review candidate application materials, and from there, send reports to the board. On Feb. 15, trustees will conduct a meeting in closed session to select from a pool of between 6-10 semi-finalists.
