Dedham Town Administrator Search Down To 3 Finalists

DEDHAM, MA — The search for Dedham's next town administrator was narrowed down to three finalists. Interim Town Administrator Nancy Baker announced them at last Thursday's selectmen meeting.

The finalists are former Dedham and current Foxborough Town Manager William Keegan, Brookline Deputy Town Administrator Melissa Goff, and former Salem, New Hampshire Town Manager Leon Goodwin, who now works in the State Department in Washington D.C. Keegan served as Dedham's town administrator for 12 years before leaving for Foxborough in 2014. He's since reapplied and is once again a finalist.

The three candidates were selected by a search committee appointed by the board, as well as Community Paradigm, a firm the town hired to assist in the search.

Baker said interviews and site visits will be scheduled for August.
