Robert Shirer Joins Delta Village Council
Last evening at the November 7th Delta Village Council meeting, Robert Shirer was sworn in as a member of the Council by Mayor Frank Wilton. The Council seat recently became vacant when Councilman Mike Tanner stepped down after relocating outside the Village limits and not being able to meet the residency requirements.
Mr. Shirer submitted a letter of application to the Village officials after the vacancy was advertised which read, in part:
I originally moved to Delta, Ohio in 2016 and worked at one of the local banks, State Bank and Trust. I moved out of state temporarily in 2017 for work and then moved back full time to the Village in 2019. I have worked at Northstar Bluescope Steel facility in Delta since returning.
My background is wide and has allowed me to acquire a broad range of skills and experiences. In my time as a member of Senior management for Xanterra Parks & Resorts Crater Lake, I liaised with government bodies, National Park Service, ensuring compliance with federal and local laws while establishing procedures to ensure the happiness and well being of millions of visitors.
My time as Purchasing Manager gave me experience in negotiating contracts, dealing with vendors and deadlines, as well as inventory management and billing. In this role and in others previously held I handled audits of both paperwork and inventories.
After his swearing in, Mr. Shirer took his seat at the Council table and participated in all the proceedings of the meeting.
