Top San Diego County finance official Ebony Shelton will likely become the county’s next chief administrative officer, Chair Nora Vargas announced Wednesday, ending a hiring process that spanned more than a year and had recently drawn unusual political pressure over whom to pick for the job. Shelton would become the first Black woman to serve as the county's top executive, succeeding the first woman ever named to the job.
President Crystal Irving — who had pushed for Chavez — criticized what she called an 'ultra-conservative county culture' and 'opaque selection process' but said she was optimistic. 'We stand ready to collaborate with Ms. Shelton to build a new culture in the organization and ensure that workers have a strong voice,' she said.
