Employment Opportunity – Zoning Enforcement Officer:
The Southeastern Connecticut Council of Governments is seeking a regional Zoning Enforcement Officer (ZEO) to serve in several municipalities. Duties include: receiving and investigating zoning violation complaints; issuing notices of violation; issuing cease and desist orders as necessary; issuing Certificates of Zoning Compliance; advising municipal Zoning Boards of Appeal (ZBA).
While this is intended to be a full-time position in the future as additional SCCOG member municipalities request this service, initially it will be a part-time contracted service with the successful applicant assigned to work in two municipalities. Applicants may express interest in both the initial part-time position and the future full-time position. The successful applicant for the immediately needed part-time position will be given priority for the future full-time position if/when the demand for this service by more towns presents itself.
Successful applicants will have experience in Zoning and/or Planning; Certification as a Certified Zoning Enforcement Officer preferred (will work with the successful applicant to achieve this certification).
This position is open until close of business, February 25, or until filled.
