The city still has to complete a background check
MARQUETTE -- It looks as though Marquette will soon have a new City Manager.
William Vajda (vie-da) of Rockville, Maryland has accepted the job that was offered to him Wednesday by the city commission.
The city still has to complete a background check, and he and the city will have to work out details of the contract. It's estimated that may take a week or two.
Vajda's predecessor, Judy Akkala, was paid $106,000 a year plus benefits.
Vajda was born and raised in Marquette and has federal experience with the Departments of Defense and Education.
