JDA Begins Search for Executive Director

At their May 1 meeting, the Greater Gilmer Joint Development Authority took to executive session to discuss options for the newly opened Executive Director Position.

Since the resignation of previous Executive Director Debbie Sadler last month, the Greater Gilmer JDA had one Special Meeting to begin the process of searching for a replacement.

It was at this regular meeting, after the executive session, that the board formally made a motion to spend up to $750 to advertise the position of Executive Director and to take advantage of all free advertisement as well.

FYN also spoke with JDA Chairman Travis Crouch who said he would be taking point on a joint effort to maintain the Executive Director responsibilities until a replacement can be found.

While that was the only major item for the agenda, the authority did also approve their financial statement during their meeting as well.
