Committee welcomes new museum executive director

The Sanibel Historical Preservation Committee welcomed the museum and village's new executive director at the meeting. Planning liaison Kim Ruiz said the museum had completed its search and introduced the new director; the director (speaker 6) told the committee she was pleased to be joining the village and said she was "very happy to be a part of the village." Committee members offered assistance with accessioning donations and scheduled follow‑up appointments to review museum operations.

Committee members discussed immediate coordination: the chair asked to set an appointment to review donation procedures and museum paperwork, and museum staff and committee members agreed to coordinate on incoming artifacts. No formal personnel actions were taken at the meeting; the introduction was ceremonial and intended to begin regular collaboration between the museum and the preservation committee.
