Description

Press release from the City of Evanston: 01/25/2022 2:00 PM   The Evanston City Council today announced an update on its search for a new city manager. Following a town hall meeting with two candidates selected as finalists and candidate interviews with City staff, community members and stakeholders, the City Council was enthusiastic about candidate Daniel Ramos. However, before employment negotiations could begin, Mr. Ramos notified the City that he had accepted a prestigious position with another community. As the City Council does not see a path forward with the current search, it intends to restart the search process with a new executive recruitment firm as quickly as possible. The Evanston City Council greatly appreciates all candidates who applied for the position and the many community members and stakeholders who have participated and provided their input throughout the process. The City Council is committed to a community-informed search and will provide updates to the community as soon as more information becomes available.
