Mooresville officials announced Thursday that the town has hired a new head for its engineering department.

Ryan Rase, who has more than 11 years of experience in both the public and private sector, has accepted the job of Engineering Manager and is slated to begin work on June 30.

Rase will take the place of Interim Engineering Director Tonia Wimberly, whose last day is Friday. Wimberly, who has been senior engineer with the department since August 2004 and interim head since Feb. 2006, resigned on June 3 in the wake of the town’s decision to offer the department head position to another candidate, whom the town has now revealed to be Rase.

Ms. Gatton: you are to be applauded. It takes great maturity and humility for a reporter to post another reporter's work as you have just done here. I doubt very seriously we will ever see this mature behavior reciprocated by the editor of the Mooresville Tribune or the Charlotte Observer. Instead, what I have witnessed is a deliberate, childish and stubborn refusal for mainstream media to address the many serious issues you have brought to the forefront. From the bottom of my heart and on behalf of an entire community, I thank you.

You know, now that the Charlotte Observer posted this person's resume in the paper talking about him working for a developer building a golf course in Florida and the latest "Cops-for-Kids" fiasco, something is sounding fishy... interim town manager who plays ALOT of golf, friendly with developers and real estate agents with favors, plays in the Cops for Kids tournament regularly, and hires a engineer manager with this background... coincidence????? Hope it is only just that, but we all know Erskine!!
