Dashield Headed to Montclair

Montclair's Township Council voted Tuesday to appoint Marc Dashield as town manager after a months-long search for a successor to two-term manager Joseph M. Hartnett, the Montclair Times reported Wednesday.

Dashield will be the township's "first non-interim African-American" manager, the report said.

Hartnett will remain on for the first month of 2010 for a "smooth transition," an online report by Terrence T. McDonald said.

Salary details were not available early Wednesday, but Hartnett received a six-figure salary far in excess of Dashield's compensation here.

Dashield came to Plainfield in January 2007, succeeding Carlton McGee. He additionally served in the role of acting Finance Director twice during his tenure.

Plaintalker will have more details later.

I hope they called for references. The Township Council in Montclair will be disappointed if Dashield continues with the same lackluster performance he exhibited here.

If I could move to Montclair and make more money I would do it in a second.

Marc was a pawn, and he played his role well. If JG and the mayor had let him do his job, this city would have been in a much better situation. Instead, he had to do their bidding, which as we all know, contains no logic or smarts. Just political manuvering.

Will you guys please shush! Let him put in his resignation and have the city accept it before you go telling Montclair about his continual "I'll get back to you on that"

Happy Happy Joy Joy - Somwhow I now feel that most of the incompetence is from the mayors office.
