Mr Glen started with council on June 3, 2013 and this July will celebrate 30 years of service in local government.
Mr Glen said it had been a pleasure to serve the community of Cessnock.
“I’ve enjoyed working with the mayor, councillors and staff as we work toward the common goal of achieving for the Cessnock Local Government Area and its residents," he said.
Cessnock Mayor Bob Pynsent congratulated Mr Glen on his retirement.
“Stephen has led council with integrity and excellence, with community needs at the forefront of his mind," Cr Pynsent said.
