Darien settles with police chief
After 11 long, bitter months, the Darien Village Board on Tuesday reached a settlement with suspended Police Chief Steve DeVoy.
The offer is designed to help DeVoy move forward to find new employment, village attorney Mark Hazelbaker said.
The board met in closed session for more than three hours Wednesday, and in open session voted 4-2 to accept the offer crafted by attorneys for both sides.
The settlement is not finalized because hearing officer Scott Herrick must approve it, Hazelbaker said. Hazelbaker would not share details about the offer and reminded board members not to speak about it.

If the Board approved it in open session, it would need to be made public.
