Woodstock has narrowed its search for a new city manager to three candidates. The city will announce its choice on Monday and hopes to have the new manager on the job by the end of March.
The finalists are:
• Angel L. Jones, city manager pro tem of Eugene, Ore., since July 2007.
• Jeffrey S. Moon, city administrator for Orange Beach, Ala., since February 2001 and a former city manager of Riverdale.
• Steven T. Thompson, former city manager of Deltona, Fla. Thompson left his job in January after an election changed the makeup of the Deltona city council.
"All three have what we're looking for as far as experience is concerned," Woodstock Mayor Donnie Henriques said. "They all are well-versed in all facets of city management."
Henriques and Woodstock's six council members will make the final decision.
"It comes down to a question of chemistry," Henriques said, "and how we think one of these three will fit in with the staff we already have and the residents and the stakeholders."
Henriques said about 80 people applied for the job, which advertised a salary range of $125,000 to $155,000. Six candidates came to Woodstock for interviews.
