The Riverbank City Council made significant strides during their April 23, 2024, meeting, notably approving the employment agreement for Joshua Mann as the new Director of Community Development. This decision comes after a thorough recruitment process led by MOSAIC Public Partners, following the retirement of the previous manager in December 2023.
Mann, who holds a bachelor's degree in rural and town planning from CSU Chico, brings a wealth of experience to the role, having served as the director of land planning for Mid Valley Engineering and previously as a senior planner with JB Anderson. His extensive background in planning positions him well to lead Riverbank's development initiatives.
The council unanimously approved Mann's contract, which will take effect on May 6, 2024. His initial three-year agreement includes a base salary of $157,180, with annual evaluations set for May. The city will provide health care benefits, a retirement plan through CalPERS, and various leave options, including 20 days of vacation and 13 holidays.
In addition to Mann's appointment, the council discussed the lengthy process of eminent domain, indicating that it could take at least 18 months to navigate. This highlights the complexities involved in city planning and development, underscoring the importance of strong leadership in the community development department.
The council's decisions signal a proactive approach to enhancing Riverbank's growth and development, with Mann's leadership expected to play a pivotal role in shaping the city's future.
