A new county administrator has been hired in Van Buren County. The Van Buren County Board of Commissioners selected John Faul for the role this week at a special meeting. If that name sounds familiar, that’s because Faul previously worked for Van Buren County in various capacities, including as county administrator, before becoming Palisades Project Director in 2021 and then retiring in 2022. He recently returned as acting interim county administrator and has now accepted the position for a two-year period. Faul says he’s looking forward to helping the board through the remainder of their present term of office through 2024 and assisting them in their search for a new administrator once a new Board is seated for their four-year term beginning in 2025.”
