Outgoing Aurora CAO Neil Garbe will take over his new position as Chief Administrative Officer of the Town of Richmond Hill effective July 6.<\/p>\n

As The Auroran reported last week, Mr. Garbe, who was appointed to his Aurora office in 2008 before taking the helm at Town Hall the following January, resigned his position for Richmond Hill last month and is expected to leave to prepare for his new job by the middle of June.<\/p>\n

In a statement released by the Town of Richmond Hill, Mr. Garbe said he was looking forward to the new \u201cchallenge.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited by the challenge of leading Richmond Hill,\u201d he said. \u201cYork Region as a whole is a fantastic place and Richmond Hill is clearly one of its gems,\u201d<\/p>\n

This enthusiasm was shared by Richmond Hill Mayor Dave Barrow.<\/p>\n

\u201cNeil Garbe brings 20 years of experience in municipal leadership to the Town,\u201d he said. \u201cAfter a thorough recruitment process, we determined that he has the right qualities to lead us into the future and we\u2019re happy to welcome him to Richmond Hill.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Garbe was appointed Aurora\u2019s CAO following the departure of John Rogers. Mr. Garbe\u2019s move south, of course, means there will be a vacancy to fill at Town Hall, the recruitment process for which will be made clear in due course.<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
