A lot of recent talk and much planning and thought came to fruition yesterday afternoon when Brian Klaassen accepted the position of DPW Director for the City of Davison.
Brian comes to us with 15 years experience from two different municipalities. He brings enthusiasm along with his experience and believes in managing through cooperation and communication. He has a B.A. in Business Administration from Walsh College, and has a year left towards his Public Services accreditation from Central Michigan University.
Mr. Klaassen’s first official day with the city is scheduled for November 20th, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see him exploring the area prior to that.
City Council looks forward to meeting Brian at their November 13th meeting.
I would like to publicly thank all the people who applied for the position. We had a real good crop of candidates and there was not an easy decision.
We have an experienced crew in our DPW and are very proud of the services we are able to provide to the community. I am sure the community will welcome Brian and his family as they become part of the Davison family.
