Mahoning commissioners expected to name Bob Bush new JFS director
YOUNGSTOWN — The appointment of Atty. Robert E. Bush Jr. of Youngstown as director of the Mahoning County Department of Job and Family Services is on the county commissioners’ agenda for their 10 a.m. meeting Thursday in the county courthouse basement.
Commissioner David N. Ludt said there were about 20 applicants for the JFS directorship.
Ludt said the new director would have to understand the financing of JFS, manage the money well and delegate authority “to the supervisors that know their job and make them do their job.”
Bush, who now serves as chief of the criminal division in the county prosecutor’s office, is a former Youngstown law director and police chief.
