The Haines Borough will look into the possibility of hiring an executive assistant to the manager rather than an economic and community development director.
The topic was discussed at a meeting of the assembly’s personnel committee Monday. Manager David Sosa said he was looking into the benefits of such a change and would report back to the committee, chair Joanne Waterman said this week.
Such a change would bring the job full circle. The position started as a consultant under Darsie Culbeck in the fall of 2011. Culbeck worked as executive assistant under Mark Earnest from 2012-2014.
The assembly later agreed to a proposal by Culbeck to hire an economic and community development director.
