PUD commissioners will interview representatives of four executive search firms, taking another step in the search for a new PUD general manager. Interviews will be scheduled at public meetings the first week of December. Times and dates are still being set.
Commissioners reviewed proposals from 10 firms on Tuesday. Those chosen for interviews are:
- Little and Associates, Broomfield, Colo.
- Passage and Associates, Seattle
- The Search Partnership, Bridgewater, N. J.
- Waters-Oldani Executive Recruitment, Dallas, Texas
Hiring an executive search firm is one of several steps being taken by commissioners to fill the vacancy created when Charlie Hosken announced last month he will take a new job in California. Board members also appointed Wayne Wright interim general manager and are holding seven meetings across the county to gather public comment on the qualifications and characteristics desired in the next PUD general manager.
The next two public meetings on the general manager qualities are at 7 tonight at the Entiat School cafeteria and 7 p.m. Wednesday at the Leavenworth Festhalle.
