Burbank to host three meetings for input on next city manager

Burbank officials have scheduled three public forums this month as they seek input from residents on the qualities they’d like to see in a new permanent city manager.

All three forums will be held in Room 104 of the Community Services Building at 150 North Third Street.

The first two are scheduled for Feb. 19 at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. The third is slate for 4:30 p.m. Feb. 21. Each meeting is slated to last 1 1/2 hour, according to the city.

Ken Pulskamp was appointed Burbank’s interim city manager late last year after Mike Flad stepped down to take the top job in the city of South Gate.

Applications for Pulskamp’s permanent replacement will be accepted between March and mid-April. The City Council plans to hire someone in June, officials said.
