Experienced Administrator Sought
The Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council is looking for a new executive director to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Jim L’Ecuyer.
Bob Moore, vice-chairman of the Council and head of the personnel committee, states that the Council is looking for a person who is able to work with a wide variety of people and someone who is able to devise creative solutions to community problems.
“The person we are looking for needs a combination of college education and extensive experience in the field of urban management,” Mr. Moore stated. The applicant needs college work in one or a combination of the following fields: sociology, community organization, education or public administration.
The “extensive experiences” should include directing, budgeting and administration of a large scale program.
“The executive director will be expected to direct and develop creative and meaningful programs. He will control and evaluate the operation of the Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council and enforce and interpret the Board’s policy as well as recommend new policy.
He will be expected to administer various programs, and activities sponsored by the Council,” Mr. Moore added.
Applications are available at the Skinker-DeBaliviere Council offices at 6008 Kingsbury, or the applicant may send a resume.
The applicant must have experience in housing development. Salary will range between $14,000 and $20,000. The job includes paid vacations, sick leave and employee benefits.
Calvin Stuart, chairman of the Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council and president of the Rosedale-Skinker Improvement Association, has resigned from the Council.
Mr. Stuart stated as his reason: “I am considering applying for the position of executive director of the council and felt that if I did there would be a conflict of interest.” In his stead, Bob Moore, vice chairman, will head the council. Mr. Stuart will also be temporarily replaced by a member of the executive committee of Rosedale-Skinker.
