Agency Votes to Create New Dinan Center Post
The Civil Service commission voted to create an assistant administrator role for Dinan Memorial Center and named hospital business coordinator John Adao to the post on a six month probation. Mayor Mandanici urged immediate action as the current administrator June Thorn has been ill for about three months. The council must approve the post and a job description is being drafted. The panel also considered a mini computer operator for billing data and delayed nine provisional firefighter and police promotions pending litigation checks and credit disputes. The commission proposed asking the Board of Education to drop two approved positions and plans to study a health services research role for the Dental Hygienists division.
