Shireene Hale, Deputy Director of Community Development and Planning, is leaving County employment effective August 1st after nine years of service.

Ms. Hale served San Juan County at a time when it endeavored to meet a host of state required planning mandates. “She tackled several very tough land use planning issues; I appreciate her hard work on the part of the County and its citizens” said Mike Thomas, County Manager.

In looking back over her time with the County, Ms. Hale indicated that she “enjoyed working with the public as a planner administering the County’s land use code, and with her fellow county colleagues.”

I watched Shireene Hale work tirelessly on the CAO, listening to all sides, fine-tuning, and trying to make the best drafts that she could make, and I appreciate all the hard work she put into that. I wish her the best in future endeavors.
