NELSONVILLE, Ohio — Nelsonville City Council appointed an interim city manager during a special meeting Tuesday night.

Scott Frank was selected by council members out of six candidates nominated for the position.

“It’s exciting,” Frank said. “I like the challenge. So many diverse departments. I think it’s going to be a lot of fun learning what they do and then diving in there and helping them.”

He brings experience in management analytics and process improvement, as well as 20 years of service in the Air Force.

“I’ve been managing people and supervising people since I was 20 years old, so I’ve a lot of experience working with others.”

Frank steps in for long-time City Manager Chuck Barga, who retired on Jan. 31.
