Cumberland announces new chief administrative officer

The Village of Cumberland has confirmed the appointment of Michelle Mason as the new chief administrative officer (CAO).

Mason was named interim CAO after Clayton Postings resigned in April.

As CAO, she will be the key advisor for council and manage the community’s day-to-day affairs.

“I look forward to continuing to work for the council to support long term strategic planning and provide strong leadership for the organization,” said Mason. “We’ve seen significant change in the village over the past few years and I hope to offer a steady helm as we continue to implement council’s goals and improve and expand community services and infrastructure.”

Mason was previously the chief financial officer and deputy CAO for the village and has called Cumberland home for more than 26 years.

“Council is very pleased to have Michelle continue her service to the village as chief administrative officer,” said Mayor Leslie Baird. “We know that Michelle is committed to the village and has the experience, qualifications and knowledge of the community to succeed in this new role.”
