Overview: On January 24, 2018, the Council authorized the Mayor to execute a contract with Developmental Associates for the recruitment and selection of a new Town Manager. The next step in the process is for Developmental Associates to meet with the Town Council, as well as Town staff, to consider the following questions:

                     What do you see as the most critical challenges facing the Town, both now and for the next 2-3 years?

                     What are the most critical competencies you think the Town Manager should have?

 

In addition, Developmental Associates will identify opportunities for community input into the selection process.

 

 

Recommendation(s):

That the Council offer input as part of Developmental Associates’ job and organizational analysis, including responses to the questions above.
