The Sacramento County Board of Supervisors confirmed Joseph (Joe) Angelo as director of the Department of Personnel Services on March 11 by approving the consent calendar. The confirmation was part of a single motion that approved items 3 through 28 and passed unanimously.

Villanueva said Angelo previously held personnel leadership roles in Alameda County, the City of San Jose and the City of San Antonio and has degrees from the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Miami and Harvard University.
