ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR QUITS JOB FOR CALIFORNIA POST

By R. Oliphant
Friday, March 24th, 2017

March 22, 2017 was her last day at Yavapai College

The sometimes controversial Yavapai Community College Economic Director, Alexandria Wright, has quit her job at Yavapai College. She begins work in August at the Ventura County Community College District in California.

The full announcement of her departure can be viewed in the on-line Verde Independent newspaper by clicking here.

As noted above, Ms. Wright has at times been controversial. For example, on September 15, 2015 she was removed from her seat for a variety of reasons on the Northern Arizona Council of Governments (NACOG) Workforce Development Board by a four – one vote of Yavapai County Supervisors. Scott Farnsworth, the College’s Dean of sciences, health and Public Safety, was subsequently appointed to that seat.

You may view more about her problems with NACOG in 2015 in an article in which she responded to beng replaced  in the Verde Independent newspaper by clicking here.
