12/12/13 - The Milford Village Council has chosen five candidates to interview in early January for its vacant manager position, with some familiar faces in the running. 39 candidates originally applied for the position, which became vacant with the abrupt resignation of former manager Brent Morgan. A subcommittee narrowed those down to eight, which Council discussed before deciding on the five it wanted to interview. One of the candidates is Village Clerk Deborah Frazer, who has been appointed acting interim manager in the absence of one over the past year and a half - first when longtime manager Arthur Shufflebarger passed away and then again in August when Morgan left. The other candidates to be interviewed include former South Lyon City Manager David Murphy (pictured), City of Jackson Economic Development Director Jonathan Greene, Village of Franklin Administrator Amy Sullivan and the Birmingham City Managerâs Assistant Christian Wuerth. Frazer tells WHMI Council has not identified any formal timeline to make a decision but Milford is a small, close community and Council has expressed a desire for candidates with education and experience who are willing to get involved and be committed. The five selected will be interviewed in alphabetical order during a special meeting on Saturday, January 4th that's open to the public. Interviews start at 8am and will be conducted throughout the day in the Milford Civic Center building that houses the municipal offices. (JM)
