Submitted by Alex Beeby on Mon, 10/03/2005 - 6:50pm.
During the reports from the mayor at tonight's city council meeting, Lansing said that he was ready to make a recommendation for an interim administrator to fill the role left by Susan Hoyt. Lansing recommended William A. Bassett for the role, and the council consented by not objecting.Hoyt recently submitted another letter announcing that she would use her vacation time to complete the remainder of her time with the city. This made her resignation essentially effective immediatly.
Bassett is a retired city manager from Mankato.
Northfield's charter gives the mayor the power to appoint an administrator with consent of the council.
The Northfield News will have more information in Wednesday's paper.
