Otonabee Conservation chief administrative officer and secretary-Treasurer Dan Marinigh has declared retirement effective at the end of July announced Wednesday.
“Dan has been an outstanding CAO for Otonabee Conservation sharing his extensive experience and progressive approach to operational leadership, program development, and project management with the Authority’s board, staff, and the watershed community,” says Ryan Huntley, Otonabee Conservation chair.
Marinigh joined the Otonabee Region Conservation Authority in August 2014 after having worked with the Ministry of Natural Resources, the private sector and other provincial and federal ministries and agencies for over 40 years.
“Over the past eight years, Dan has done an excellent job of administering our provincially mandated responsibilities while expertly navigating changes to the Conservation Authorities Act,” says Andy Mitchell, former chair. “He has demonstrated exemplary leadership throughout his tenure at Otonabee Conservation and has guided the Authority smoothly through the challenging times of the pandemic.”
The Otonabee Conservation Board of Directors is launching recruitment for a new CAO/Secretary-Treasurer with the incumbent commencing summer 2022.
