Glad you mentioned this; I'd be meaning to. I believe the announcement said
he would serve until Thanksgiving. Only two and half months? Seems like too
short a time to accomplish anything; couldn't somebody already in the
department fill the role (as I believe Keith Ford once did at the MCDA?
Perhaps Mr. Christenson is wired for the job, in which case he's getting a
head start -- though that's just speculation on my part.
I don't think we're talking big money or big outrage here, but John Moir
gave several weeks notice; you'd think that would be enough to find a
suitable replacement, or, if one's not at hand, you might want to take
several months to do a thorough national search. 2 1/2 months seems too
middling, at least to this inexperienced observer.
