Youngstown prosecutor appointed to Mill Creek MetroParks board

YOUNGSTOWN — Jay Macejko, city prosecutor, has been appointed to a three-year term on the three-member Mill Creek MetroParks board of commissioners.

Macejko, a lifelong Mahoning County resident, lives near Mill Creek Park on the city’s West Side. Probate Judge Mark Belinky appointed Macejko, effective Jan. 1.

Macejko replaces Rick Shale, a Youngstown State University English professor, who was appointed in March 2005 to complete an unexpired park board term. Shale, who lives in Boardman, was then appointed to a full term that began in January 2006 and expired Dec. 31.
