Oconee County Announces Sole Finalist for Position of County Administrator

Oconee County Commissioners, following an executive session of just less than 40 minutes, Wednesday announced that Justin Kirouac, assistant city manager of Johns Creek, is the sole finalist for the position of county administrator.

The Board of Commissioners is expected to take final action on the appointment at its meeting on July 11, according to Commission Chair John Daniell.

Kirouac is to replace Jeff Benko, who announced on Feb. 15 that he wished to retire effective July 1. Benko has said he can be flexible on the final date of employment.

Daniell said the county will enter into contract negotiations with Kirouac “over the next several days.”
