From Belleville News-Democrat: June Hamilton-Dean, with trial on two felony fraud and forgery charges still pending in a St. Clair County Court, began a new job in East St. Louis as the city’s new Community Development and TIF Director last week.
At an annual salary of $73,000, Hamilton-Dean will manage the day-to-day operations of the city’s Community Development Department with an annual budget of more than $12 million, according to city records. Her first day on the job was July 16.
She previously served on the City Council and as a financial consultant to East St. Louis Township while her brother, Oliver Hamilton, was township supervisor. The pair were among seven metro-east public officials arrested in December 2016 on corruption charges.
