2026-05-26 Village of Villa Park Board of Fire and Police Commission

The Village of Villa Park Board of Fire and Police Commission held a meeting on May 26, 2026, primarily focused on administrative matters and personnel updates. Key procurement-related discussions included the announcement that James Isusi accepted an offer to join the fire department as their 27th member, starting June 1st. The commission also discussed the eligibility list scoring system for police department candidates, specifically the possibility of awarding extra points for candidates with prior experience as Community Service Officers (CSOs). While current statutes do not authorize additional points for CSO experience, the commission considered incorporating such recognition into the oral examination scoring process, which would require amendments to their rules and regulations. No contract awards, RFPs, or budget allocations were discussed during this meeting.
