AMBER Valley Borough Council is set to cut the role of chief executive for cost-cutting reasons.
The council, which covers Alfreton, Heanor and Ripley, has been looking at ways of reducing its budget and announced the move today.
Leader of the council Stuart Bradford said: "Following lengthy debate, and careful consideration of the reports, the Council decided to delete that post from the organisation.
"In these continuing difficult times, we have to make difficult decisions and the decision to delete the post of the Chief Executive most definitely falls into this category."
