Interim City Manager Appointed In Asbury Park

ASBURY PARK – The mayor and Asbury Park Council have announced the appointment of Donna M. Vieiro to the position of interim city manager, effective Dec. 1.

Vieiro, a city resident, previously served as the township administrator in Holmdel Township and the municipal manager in Franklin Township in Somerset County.

She holds a master’s degree in public administration from Rutgers University and brings more than 20 years of municipal government and management experience to Asbury Park, according to a city press release.

Vieiro is a former president of the New Jersey Municipal Management Association, and was previously honored as “manager of the year” in 2018.

The mayor and council have become familiar with Vieiro through her work and involvement on the city’s Budget Committee and in providing management assistance to the city for several projects earlier this year, the release said.

The mayor and council look forward to working with Vieiro to help move the governing body’s policy initiatives forward, and believe she will be a great asset to the city through the transition to a new permanent city manager, the release said.
