How do you feel about cruise ships coming to Astoria again?
“Love it. They add
a nice vibrancy to our
community, they’re
fun, and they’re ener-
getic guests who enjoy
Astoria. And the cruise
ships are beautiful.”

Two vie for community development job
By KATIE
FRANKOWICZ
The Daily Astorian
After more than a
year without a commu-
nity development director,
Astoria now has two candi-
dates for the job.
Their names are not
yet being released, but
City Manager Brett Estes
announced a public meet-
and-greet event at Clatsop
Community College next
week. The event will give
people a chance to meet the
candidates, hear more about
their experiences and back-
grounds and ask questions.
The event, held at
Columbia Hall, room 219
at 1651 Lexington Ave. ,
will begin at 5:30 p.m. on
May 8 . Comment cards will
be provided so people can
share their initial impres-
sion of the candidates they
speak with at the event.
Estes held a similar
event February 2018 when
he had two candidates lined
up for the job. Ultimately,
neither candidate was
offered the position.
Estes has served as
interim community devel-
opment director in addi-
tion to his role as city man-
ager since former director
Kevin Cronin left in 2017.
He brought on former city
planners Rosemary John-
son and Mike Morgan as
consultants to help with
projects in the Community
Development Department.
Morgan briefl y served as
interim community devel-
opment director.
Estes posted the job sev-
eral times since Cronin left.
While Estes has been able
to get a list of candidates,
he has not succeeded yet
in fi nding a replacement .
This year, Estes brought
on Prothman, a consult-
ing fi rm that specializes in
recruitment services across
the nation, to post the posi-
tion and recruit candidates.
Over the last two years,
the department has been
asked to take on large,
time-intensive
projects,
including the creation of
codes to guide develop-
ment along a portion of the
Astoria riverfront.
Some projects have had
to go on the back burner to
accommodate more press-
ing priorities, Estes said.
City Planner Nancy Ferber,
hired during Cronin’s ten-
ure, left for another job this
spring.
The community devel-
opment director oversees a
number of issues, including
development review, code
enforcement and urban
renewal.
