Amelia’s village council has voted in favor of establishing a fiscal officer position for the village.
The move came at council’s meeting Monday, Sept. 21 after much discussion.
The new position will replace the clerk/treasurer position currently held by Andy Parker. Parker was elected in 2007 and has resigned his position effective Oct. 1, due to a job change.
Mayor Ellington recommended that council consider changing the position to that of fiscal officer but two council members were reluctant to change the position to that of an employee of the village.
