The Riley County Commission has started the process to find a new planning and development director, after learning Monday that current director Monty Wedel plans to retire in September.
Human Resources Manager Cindy Volanti says a summary was used in the past for previous department head hiring processes. They will advertise the position on various websites, which Volanti says won’t cost too much. The price ranges from around $1,000 to $1,500.
As for the timeline to fill the position, Volanti says the job posting will be online for a whole month from April 1 to May 1, conducting primary interviews in May before moving onto secondary interviews. If those candidates do not meet their requirements, they will post the listing again for another month.
