Town of Winchendon MA has interim Town Manager while Search is on…

The Town of Winchendon posted on its website, “The Town of Winchendon is pleased to welcome Bill McKinney as the interim Town Manager.  Bill has many years of public and private sector experience, including running two State agencies, the Metropolitan District Commission and the Department of Labor Standards.  He also served as the CFO for the Town of Weymouth.  Bill has a BA from the College of the Holy Cross and an MBA from Babson College. Please stop in and say hello when visiting Town Hall.  Bill is eager to meet the folks of Winchendon.” The town has had some recent challenges with administrators as Justin Sultzbach left after just 2 years on the job (final day was July 7th) and a Search Committee is looking for his permanent replacement.

Superintendent of Schools Thaddeus King and the School Committee recently agreed that he will step down as of the end of July 2023. Therefore, the town will be simultaneously looking for a new person for that job as well. Gardner Magazine conducted a recent Social Media poll which showed 79% of the public wanted King to be terminated for poor performance and only1% thought he should be praised for good performance.
