From the meeting
At its October 14, 2026 special meeting, the Village Council adopted Resolution 2026-022 to remove Village Manager Aaron J. Popa from office for cause. Popa also served as Chief of Police, so the decision affects both administration and public safety leadership.
The council had suspended him on August 19, 2026 pending a Michigan State Police investigation. This is a leadership change that can affect budgeting, operations, and any future staffing or restructuring decisions.
