Weathersfield administrator applicants narrowed to 5

MINERAL RIDGE

Weathersfield Township trustees have narrowed a field of 18 applicants to five candidates for the township administrator, zoning inspector and road superintendent position.

Trustee Chairman Steve Gerberry said trustees are leaning toward having their choice do all three jobs, just as retiring township Administrator David Pugh has been doing.

Pugh retires Dec. 31. Trustees interviewed the five candidates during an executive session Monday.
