I have been genuinely impressed with the assembled team
of City staff; they are truly professional and committed to providing the
best possible public service to the citizens of and visitors to Mill Creek.
What is clear to me in my short time here is that Mill Creek citizens are
extremely proud of their community.
As we head toward the end of the calendar year, there
are many items that continue to keep the staff busy . . . including a
prospective “East Gateway” development, and an analysis of a proposed
annexation area that has been brought to the city for consideration. The
Penny Creek Culvert replacement project should be nearing completion with
the restoration of all roadway lanes . . . we appreciate your patience
during the construction. As a service to our citizens and customers, we now
have an electronic customer comment form available on our website to make it
easier for the public to provide feedback to us. Also posted on our website
is information on what to do with debris caused by inclement weather, along
with our snow and ice plan. Please take a few minutes to review this helpful
advice.
As with any organization, staffing changes are
inevitable. We said farewell to Gail Goetz (Receptionist), Chuck Miller
(Building Inspector), and Chris Bailey (Recreation Assistant). We thank them
for their service and wish them the very best in their future endeavors. In
addition, we welcome Tom Gathmann (Public Works Director), Camille Chriest
(Senior Planner), Kyle Hughes (Police Officer), and Andy Westgaard (Building
Inspector) to the City team.
Once again, I am deeply honored and proud to serve as
your City Manager. We have challenges ahead but, more importantly, we have
many great opportunities ahead of us. I hope to see you around the city. |
