A NEW boss has been appointed at City of York Council.
Sally Burns will become the authority’s new director of neighbourhood services later this year. She will replace Terry Collins, who left the post in January.
Mrs Burns currently works at East Riding of Yorkshire Council as head of housing, public protection and safe communities Bill McCarthy, York chief executive, said: “I’m delighted that Sally has accepted the post. She brings with her a great deal of experience of local government and partnership working and I have no doubt that she will be a valuable addition to the council’s management team.”
Mrs Burns said: “I am really looking forward to joining the team in York. It is a fantastic city with an exciting future ahead and I am very happy to be able to play a part in this.”
Adam Wilkinson had been interim director, since Mr Collins left.
