Two finalists are competing to oversee the day-to-day operations of Peoria.
Deputy City Managers Julie Arendall and Jeff Tyne will be interviewed today, 4 p.m., in a closed door Council session. One is expected to be approved by the City Council at a public meeting, June 13.
The new appointment will replace City Manager Carl Swenson, who announced his retirement May 15 after 11 years with Peoria and 35 years of public service.
He will step down July 4 and the new city manager will immediately step in.
