The Horseshoe Bay has appointed a news city manager, taking into account his experience, knowledge and dedication to his current position for the municipality.
The city council approved unanimously selected Jeff Koska, who is serving as the current interim city manager, as city manager during a regular meeting on Jan. 18.
“I’ve been here for over twenty years. I know this city. I’m ready to take on the challenge,” said Koska, in an interview with The Highlander.
He was previously in charge of public works as utilities director. “I believe the community and the city and the staff supported me. I’m excited and will work really hard to make the city as best as it can be.”
Koska served with the city for 13 years and prior to that worked for the Lake LBJ Municipal Utility District.
During his tenure with the MUD and the city, the appointment was the second time he has been named as an interim. The first was in 2005 when he filled a vacated position due to a death.
He was appointed interim city manager in October after the departure of Stan Farmer.
At that time, he stated, “The community should not see any interruptions or lack of services due to this change.”
Rick Williams, an employee in the city’s public works department, was tapped to fill the position of interim utilities director.
