2A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2015 Standards set for hiring new county manager By KYLE SPURR The Daily Astorian What do you want to tell our veterans, or one veteran in particular? “Thank all the veterans for raising their right hand and swearing to defend the Constitution of the Unit- ed States and keeping our country safe.” — Steven Davis, retired Navy chief, Astoria “Thank you! Happy Veterans Day!” — Richard K. Goosey, Astoria “There’s one veteran I admire to- tally, and that is my husband, Alan Batchelder.” — Nancy Lee Batchelder, Astoria The Clatsop County Board of Commissioners approved standards and criteria Monday for hiring a new county manag- er to replace Scott Somers, who resigned in September for a new position in Maryland. The agreed upon criteria lists minimum requirements for applicants in education, experi- ence, expertise and abilities. It also lists the procedure c ommis- sioners will follow to recruit and hire for the position. For education, c ommission- ers agreed applicants need a bachelor’s degree in local gov- ernment disciplines or a related ¿ eld from an accredited uni- versity or college. A graduate degree in business or public ad- ministration is highly desirable, according to the county. An applicant would need seven or more years of expe- rience with public or private work. Experience in Oregon land use laws would be a plus, the county said. Commissioners will select and hire the county manager. The new manager will likely earn a similar amount to Somers, who was paid $137,000 a year . F ormer Cannon Beach City Manager Rich Mays is serving as interim county manager. ® ACCUWEATHER FORECAST FOR ASTORIA Astoria 5-Day Forecast Tonight A shower early; otherwise, partly cloudy 42° Thursday Oregon Weather Shown is tomorrow’s weather.
