Last week’s announcement that Donna Munoz, Morongo Basin’s Field Rep to County Supervisor James Ramos, was stepping down makes sense with today’s news that Munoz has been offered the position of General Manager for the Morongo Valley Community Services District. Munoz was at the CSD training with outgoing General Manager, Rick Lebel, every day last week. If approved, Munoz will work under the same terms under which Lebel was hired two years ago. Outgoing Lebel came out of retirement to run the CSD after the sudden departure of Meg Foley. The CSD board is expected to approve Munoz’s contract at the regular monthly meeting Wednesday night. Munoz’s contract with the County Supervisor ended last Tuesday, February 11. She is expected to officially start as general manager this Thursday.
