SAUK VILLAGE, Ill. — Police Chief Robert Fox, who was chosen by Village President Lewis Towers to run both the Police and Fire departments, signed an agreement Friday that says he will decline the dual appointment.
The agreement effectively ends Fox’s tenure with the village as of Thursday, when Fire Chief Alan Stoffregen takes over command of both the Fire and Police departments, according to Village Attorney Michael McGrath.
The agreement was negotiated between Fox and attorneys from Odelson & Sterk, the Evergreen Park-based law firm that represents village government even though Towers has tried in recent weeks to fire them.
