The Culver Town Council members agreed to extend Ginny Bess Munroe’s resignation date in order to train her replacement.
Munroe submitted her resignation in mid-December and noted her last day would be February 10. The council is currently working with the company who helped the town council with the last two town manager searches – HR Unlimited Resources out of Sheridan, Indiana. The council worked with Mitch Ripley and he is familiar with the town and the responsibilities requested of a town manager for the Town of Culver.
Councilman Rich West said Munroe offered to extend the resignation date until a new person is hired. Munroe said there are a lot of active projects with the comprehensive plan, street department, broadband in the next month, plus many others.
“I just want to make sure there’s a smooth transition to keep these projects going in an organized way and not put a burden on the team working for the town or in the clerk’s office, or anyone else for that matter,” said Munroe.
She added that she wants the next person to be set up for success.
West said it is in the town’s best interest from all perspectives that the extension occurs.
The council approved a motion with a unanimous vote to extend the resignation day.
