Hamilton City Manager Marnie Cluckie says changes to the City’s organizational structure are forthcoming.
“In terms of the organizational chart, there will be a change coming,” Cluckie said during her post-Council meeting availability on April 30. “That is becoming my focus now that I have shifted from the cyber security incident into rebuilding back better and stronger.”
She took her first year as City Manager as an “opportunity to listen and learn.”
“Now I need to make some changes that help us achieve our strategic priorities and deliver the outcomes that the community expects of us.”
Only nine days earlier, Cluckie dismissed two general managers. This week, the job posting to replace the GM of Public Works was posted.
“I will work very diligently to hire very quickly,” Cluckie said. “I’d like to see the person in place. Within three to six months or closer to the three-month mark.”
“I give that range because it’s important to get the right person.”
The hiring of the GM of Planning and Economic Development will be complete soon. [The previous GM left voluntarily nearly 14 months ago.]
The second GM of Community Services position will remain vacant, and the other GM of Community Services will take full responsibility for the department.
“I will not be replacing the other GM position at this time. I will be waiting for the organizational structure review to be completed,” Cluckie said.
City Council will be briefed on the organization restructuring plan during the closed session portion of the upcoming May 7 Council ratification meeting.
(Council was to be briefed on May 1, but deferred the matter due to that day’s council meeting running longer than scheduled.)
