You may notice some new faces at Huntsville\u2019s planning department, which is going through a transition. Two planners have recently left the municipality for other pastures.<\/p>\n
Chris Marshall has gone to Kawartha Lakes and Sean O\u2019Callaghan, who left just before Marshall, accepted another position as planner at the Township of Algonquin Highlands.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s the thing with living in Muskoka\u2026 the joke is that we keep stealing from one another. Huntsville CAO Denise Corry<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cWe certainly wish them well,\u201d said Corry, adding that they\u2019ve both moved up in their careers as planners.<\/p>\n
<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n In terms of the impact on Huntsville, she said O\u2019Callaghan\u2019s position was filled internally by GIS Coordinator Curtis Syvret. \u201cHe slid over, he had some great background in urban planning,\u201d said Corry.<\/p>\n
As for Marshall\u2019s position, Corry said, \u201cWe\u2019re very sad to see him go because obviously when you have staff in the Corporation that are committed and dedicated it\u2019s hard to let them go.\u201d At the same time Corry called the move great for his career as it was a higher level position. The Town went looking for a senior planner to replace him. The competition closed mid-January and staff are expected to begin reviewing the applications this week. The hiring committee is comprised of Human Resources Manager Lisa Smith, Manager of Planning Services Kristin Maxwell, and Executive Director of Development Services Mike Gooch who has announced he\u2019ll be retiring in June. The Executive Director of Development Services oversees planning, bylaw, building, and the sustainability departments at the Town of Huntsville.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019ll be a big portfolio so we\u2019ll probably be going out in a month looking for applications for that position,\u201d said Corry.<\/p>\n
