Aberdeen issues a hiring freeze for all non “mission Critical” positions.

That means they can still replace police and firefighters. The city says it is dealing with a $ 3 million budget shortfall and this was one of the solutions. There’s no defined timeline of when the freeze will end, but city leaders indicated it could last into next year.
