According to

\nDavid Rodock in the VDT today:<\/a><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/a>
\n…a unanimous decision by board members to submit a formal offer to
\nAndrea Schruijer for the position of executive director.<\/p>\n

\nAbsent from the meeting was board member Roy Copeland.<\/p>\n

\nAccording to Steve Gupton, authority attorney, the three-year contract
\nwill include a salary of $100,000 per year. As with all its employees,
\nthe authority will pay seven percent into a retirement fund and 75
\npercent of health care insurance.<\/p>\n

\nSchruijer, pending acceptance of the offer, will officially start
\nemployment on July 8.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

She’s a former hotel marketing person,
\n
\naccording to her LinkedIn account<\/a>:<\/p>\n

  • \nSenior Vice President, Economic Development at Albany Dougherty Economic Development Commission\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

    They’re paying her less than Brad Lofton.
    \nWe’ll see if she’s any better.<\/p>\n

    \nMore from that story:<\/p>\n

    \n“There were actually 11 people involved with the interview process,
    \nwith representatives from both the city and the county governments,”
    \nsaid Jerry Jennett, authority chairman. “Out of five candidates, two
    \nwere not from Georgia, which was probably somewhat of a handicap. It
    \nworks out that the way development is done in Georgia is different than
    \nin other states; it’s just different.”\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    Different as in important decisions get made in numerous special called
    \nmeetings so there will be no public or video cameras?<\/p>\n
