(Hanks to over-see one more meeting)…It is a special closed session meeting.

James Hanks is the outgoing President of the Imperial Irrigation District Board of Directors. The IID has called a special meeting for Wednesday, December 26th. The closed door meeting is to discuss the employment of the new IID General Manager. While a new GM was announced by the Board, he will not be officially hired until a contract is negotiated and approved. No problems are anticipated. Once a decision is reached, an announcement will be made to the public. Kevin Kelley is retiring as the General Manager of the District. His last day on the job is December 31st. Beginning with the first meeting in January the IID Board President will be Division 4 Director Erik Ortega. The Vice President of the Board will be Division Five Director Norma Sierra Galindo. The special meeting Wednesday will be held in Condit Auditorium on Broadway in El Centro.
