We’re glad to see the municipality will be hiring an administrator, but we wish the process had been started months ago.
Since January, municipal treasurer Ken Ostraat has also been the acting administrator. The two roles are both huge and demanding.
If we had a year with any significant projects on the go, the work would have been far too much for any one person.
Because of the time involved in the search process, it could be another six months before an administrator is hired.
