"The chief has provided distinguished service to our village for six years," Asperger said. "We appreciate his efforts and participation as part of our village family immensely. In particular, such things as his commitment to departmental leadership and developing his officers. He has now given us, as he retires, the opportunity to conduct an internal recruitment for his successor."
Fleege joined the La Grange fire department as its chief in 2004.
Previously, Fleege served as fire chief in Wheaton from 1982 until his retirement from that village in Feb. 2003. Fleege was hired as a firefighter there in 1974.
