Change at the helm of the Santa Barbara waterfront

SANTA BARBARA- Santa Barbara is looking for its next waterfront director. City Administrator Paul Casey recently announced that Waterfront Director Scott Riedman retired at the beginning of August after eight years at the helm.

“I think he served very admirably and accomplished a great deal in his service with the city,” Casey said during the Aug. 15 Harbor Commission meeting.

Casey said he has started the recruitment process, which he estimates will take four to six months to complete. He briefed the commissioners on that process at the Aug. 15 meeting. He said it will be an open recruitment, but expects to have internal candidates as well.
