La Grange names fire chief planning liaison, adds part-time code enforcement officer

The Chair moved to appoint La Grange Fire Chief Anthony Champion as the planning board liaison; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The Chair congratulated the chief and noted the appointment was "all set."

The board also approved the appointment of Timothy Beyer to a part-time code enforcement officer position to address vacancies and increased building activity. Board members agreed the position would be part time for now and welcomed the addition as an asset to the department.

Why it matters: the planning liaison appointment links emergency services leadership with planning conversations, and the code enforcement hire is intended to help the building department manage growing permit and inspection workloads.
