The Fenton Board of Aldermen reappointed Chuck (senior) Billings as municipal judge and appointed Jane Hundler as city clerk during Wednesday’s meeting.

Alderman Wissbrough moved to reappoint the provisional municipal judge; Alderman Jokers seconded the motion. The motion carried by voice vote. Separately, Alderman Mazurang moved to reappoint Jane Hundler as city clerk; Alderman Wissbrough seconded the motion and the board approved the appointment by voice vote.

The board briefly clarified that the municipal judge and the provisional judge are parent and son: "Chuck Billings?" "Yes. He is." The meeting record identifies the judge as the senior Billings and a provisional appointment for the junior Billings was also referenced.

Why it matters: Municipal judge and city clerk appointments affect court administration and city recordkeeping; both positions are filled by individuals the board approved in the meeting.

No amendments, conditions, or implementation timelines beyond the normal appointment process were recorded on the meeting record.
