The City of El Dorado announced the promotion of Tabitha Sharp to Assistant City Manager in November. Sharp has worked for the City of El Dorado since 2009 when she took the position of Intern to the City Manager. She was promoted to City Clerk in April of 2010. Since then, she has fulfilled not only the clerk functions, but also oversaw the Human Resources, Payroll, Tourism and Public Information departments. In 2022, she was promoted to Administration Director for the City. After advertising the new position of Assistant City Manager and doing interviews, Sharp was selected as the best candidate for this position. “Tabitha has demonstrated increasing responsibility within the organization, especially over the last few years while she served as City Clerk and most recently as the Administration Director,” said City Manager David Dillner. Sharp will take on more management responsibilities to assist the City Manager with general oversight of the municipal organization. Her position will continue to oversee Experience El Dorado, Human Resources, Finance, and Public Information functions, although several of the responsibilities currently assigned to her are anticipated to be delegated as a way of providing employees with increasing opportunities. In her new role, Sharp will also have the duties and responsibilities of Finance Director. She will assist the City Manager in overseeing and managing strategic initiatives and will have an increasing role in special projects and assignments. She will also serve in the absence of the City Manager when he is away from the office for an extended period. “I look forward to seeing where this new role for Tabitha will take the city in the future,” Dillner said. “She has a lot of offer the City of El Dorado and this new role will help utilize all of her talents and experience.”
