Janesville's City Manager On The Way Out Next?


Just days after the sudden resignation of Janesville's economic development director comes word that Janesville's city manager, Eric Levitt, has been listed as the finalist for the city manager's job in Simi Valley, Cali.

Ventura County Star Excerpt:
Eric Levitt, 45, has been city manager of the Wisconsin city for more than four years. Janesville has about 63,000 residents.

Simi Valley is conducting a background check of Levitt and no contract has yet been offered.

If hired, Levitt would succeed City Manager Laura Behjan, who retired last month. Behjan temporarily succeeded City Manager Mike Sedell, who retired in July after 17 years on the job.

Apparently, he's been looking for a way out and I can't blame him one bit. I'll be saving further comment until after a decision has been made.

Hopefully the Simi Valley can do better! City manager is a major responsibility,having the right person in place can do a lot. Here in Hobbs, JJ Murphy the City Manager has really been doing some great work.
