HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Reno County’s search for a new County Administrator seems to be on track according to Human Resources Director Renee Harris.

She says they have a nice pool of applicants who met the qualifications for the position. She says the commission will have an executive session on Nov. 19 to consider these candidates and then cut that number down.

They have tentatively scheduled the week of Dec. 1 for interviews, however that could change some depending on the schedule of those candidates.

The commission wants to have someone in place to take over for the current administrator Gary Meagher who will retire at the end of his contract on Dec. 27.
