Board to advertise executive‑director vacancy; volunteers and hours remain inconsistent at historical museum

Members said the executive‑director position for the tourism/administrative office will be advertised in the coming days with the goal of hiring a permanent director. The meeting record shows no personnel action beyond the decision to advertise the vacancy. Separately, a board member reported visiting the local historical museum and noted it is re‑opening on a volunteer basis with planned hours Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from about 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The board member said they encountered locked doors on some visits and will contact volunteer coordinator Miss Faye to determine needs or corrections so the museum can reliably keep the posted hours. Why it matters: advertising for a permanent executive director signals a forthcoming leadership recruitment for the tourism office. The museum’s irregular hours affect visitor access and the county’s cultural‑tourism offerings; staff agreed to follow up with volunteers to resolve the access issues.
