It outlines the necessary steps for the Council to take, including transmitting a copy of the resolution to both the nominee and the Mayor's Office upon adoption. The resolution is set to take effect immediately, pending the Council's approval. Mr. Gill's qualifications and experience, particularly in managing significant IT portfolios and his role as a Small Business Liaison at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, position him as a strong candidate for this role.
