HOORAY!!!
here is the
article in case anyone missed it.
Here is an excerpt:
Don Himelfarb has resigned as economic development director, saying his agreement with the mayor was never meant to be for a long period.
"Originally, when she asked me to come in and get some economic development momentum and set up some strategy, we didn't know how long it would take," he said.
Himelfarb said they discussed his staying six months to a year, and "now it's been 16 months."
He said a strategy is in place for economic development, "so it is time for someone to come in and execute the plan."
"On a personal note," he said, "this was never going to be a long-term situation for me; I was just trying to help the city and the mayor."
