EMA director - the applicants
UPDATE: The list below is incomplete. There are in fact roughly 30 applicants for Emergency Management Director, but neither the county personnel board nor the EMA office has all the applications. They were all copied and sent to the EMA board members themselves.
I will have a full list for you Monday. I’m told it does include Middletown City Councilman Bill Becker, former police chief and city manager.
Original post:
Today is the deadline to apply for the job of Butler County Emergency Management Director (go here for background on the shake-up at EMA).
Here are the applicants to date, and the job description listed on their applications (it’s open for the rest of the day, so I’ll update if more come in):
- John Milstead Jr., police chief at the Linder Center of HOPE in Mason (a mental health hospital)
- John Fussner, president of Christopher Technologies, an emergency management software company in West Chester Twp.
- Mark Wanner, hazardous materials/weapons of mass destruction trainer, Global Training Solutions
- Joseph Witzman, part-time instructor of criminal law at Southwestern Community College
- Mark Bowden, trauma nurse at Bethesda North Hospital
- Janet Stanovich, Madera County, California, emergency services coordinator
- Paul Myers, senior manager at Myers Associates Inc., Cincinnati
- George Francis, Bass Pro Shops inventory control specialist
These are only their current jobs. Many of them cite past experience as more relevant to this position (Francis was a captain in the Hamilton Fire Department, his resume says)
Any idea who you think would be most qualified?
