(From City of Chamblee)
On February 28, 2011, the Chamblee City Council selected two finalists in their search for a new city manager. Those finalists are Gary Adams, Village Administrator of Oswego, Illinois; and Niles Ford, Ph.D., Fire Chief of Lincoln, Nebraska.
The City retained the services of Colin Baenziger & Associates to conduct a national search to fill the position vacated by former city manager Jim Gleason last November. The firm received 107 applications and recommended nine to the City for further consideration. The City Council narrowed the list to five and invited them to interviews on February 26th and 28th.
The City Council anticipates selecting the next city manager at their regularly scheduled meeting on Tuesday evening, March 15, 2011. That meeting will be held at 7:30 pm in the Chamblee Civic Center located at 3540 Broad Street.
The resumes of the two candidates are available on the City of Chamblee’s web site at http://www.chambleega.com/.
As required by state law, a copy of all documents in the possession of the City of Chamblee regarding the two finalists is available at City Hall for public inspection during normal business hours.
