And the hiring of a new City Administrator will be going on in the background. It's not a simple process, and one the mayor anticipates will take months.
Bernard Wagner, Mayor of Belize
"I know it's a process because you have to be transparent about it. You have to do the required vacancy notice, that will take a while to get done again and then you get in all the applications and you vet them. You bring in them for interviews and then thereafter you decide on another person which will take another month or so, then you'll have to go about getting the contract in place. So I really am not looking until close to the third quarter, ending of June, beginning of July to really got that in place but the good thing with the city council, we have a couple managers in place who have been with the council for years so we feel comfortable knowing that we have the human resource."
