A long-time planning and engineering consultant will soon be taking the reins as the new Adams County Planning and Zoning Administrator.
On Tuesday, the Adams County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved hiring Judy Mignery to take the place of current administrator Dawn Miller.
Several months ago, Miller announced that she felt she could no longer handle her two positions as zoning administrator and roads superintendent.
Part of her decision stemmed from the growing number of federal regulations for roads projects she must now contend with.
So Mignery, who has served with Miller as a member of the Adams County Planning and Zoning Commission since 2005, will start training as the new administrator April 1.
While she was only officially hired Tuesday, Mignery said she was approached by the county in November 2009 to consider applying for this position.
