Peoria City Council unanimously approved Mike Faust as the new city manager, replacing Henry Darin who is stepping down to take the new position of executive consultant to the city manager.
“Probably the most important decision a council make, in my humble opinion, is the appointment of a new city manager,” Darwin said during the Jan. 27 council meeting.
The city manager is appointed by council and serves as the city’s chief executive officer, responsible for implementing the policy and programs of the elected body and managing city operations.
