The application period runs through Sunday, May 30, and the city anticipates filling the position in July.

“Strong candidates will be visionary team leaders who exhibit high energy and an entrepreneurial spirit,” city officials wrote in a news release. “They will have experience across a variety of parks and recreation operations and have a proven record of thinking big while following through with tangible, high-value results.”
