Oktibbeha supes consider four finalists for new county administrator
OKTIBBEHA COUNTY — The board of supervisors could hire a new county administrator as soon as this week.
After receiving 24 applications for the position, supervisors interviewed four finalists in a special-call open session Monday. However, county officials did not alert the media about the meeting, nor were the interviews livestreamed or posted later on the county’s YouTube channel — even though most supervisors’ meetings in the last two years have been.
Emily Garrard
The new county administrator will replace Emily Garrard, who is retiring in June after seven years in that position and 18 total working for the county.
