Simsbury: Public Forum Scheduled On Town Manager Search

Press release from the Town of Simsbury:

SIMSBURY, CT — Those interested in who will be leading the town are invited to both a special forum Thursday on the topic, as well as filling out an online survey as well.

Simsbury is beginning the process of looking for its next town manager and local officials are working with GovHR USA, a national human resources consulting firm to do just that.

Part of that process is a public forum to hear community input on what the Simsbury community would like to see in its next town manager.

The forum is scheduled for Thursday, June 29, from 6 to 8 p.m. in the Simsbury High School cafeteria, 34 Farms Village Road.

The session will be facilitated by Mike Jaillet of GovHR USA, a full service national public sector executive recruiting and consulting firm.

Simsbury residents, business community and town officials are encouraged to attend the session to express their thoughts and suggestions.

The event's aim is help ensure GovHR is able to properly market Simsbury, the town manager position and the community’s vision to potential candidates.

Currently, the town is looking to replace Maria Capriola, who left her job in the spring after being the town's first town manager following a charter change a few years ago.

The interim town manager is, currently, ex-Wethersfield Town Manager Lee Erdmann who replaced Simsbury Police Chief Nicholas Boulter, who filled in after Capriola left for an undisclosed reason.
