RM council votes out administrator, pursues ‘new direction’

The Rural Municipality (RM) of Prince Albert is searching for a new administrator.

This comes following a vote by council on June 10, to part ways with Roxanne Roy. When contacted by paNOW, Reeve Eric Schmalz said he could not comment on the specifics of the decision.

“Council decided to move the RM in a new direction and that’s all I can say about it,” he said.

Roy had been with the RM for seven-and-a-half years, and has roughly spent the past five years as the administrator. Among the bigger projects she was more recently involved with was a major development near the junction of highways 2 and 11. When further pressed if there was one specific reason for council’s vote, or a combination of factors, again Schmalz declined comment.
