Norwalk”™s Assistant Director of Planning and Zoning Michael Wrinn will become director of Planning and Land Use Management/Town Planner for Wilton starting Jan. 21.
Wrinn replaces Bob Nerney, who is retiring after serving 18 years as Wilton”™s town planner.
“Michael Wrinn has a demonstrated ability to work collaboratively and transparently with commissioners, developers, fellow employees and residents,” Wilton First Selectwoman Lynne Vanderslice said. “He brings extensive experience in master planning, an area of current focus for the Planning and Zoning Commission.”
