The Peachtree City Council will meet Saturday at 1 p.m. to rank their top three finalists wishing to become the next city manager.

The next step on the process will be for council to vote on its final selection at a public meeting in the near future.

On Saturday, council will be reviewing the applicants who have been recommended by a panel that has been sorting through the applications. That panel has included interim City Manager Nikki Vrana, City Attorney Ted Meeker, the city’s Human Resources administrator and LaGrange City Manager Tom Hall.

Georgia law requires the top three candidates be selected and for the city to release documents related to those persons at least 14 days prior to a vote on selecting the final candidate. City staff has indicated that each finalist will receive notice and that some of the candidates may bow out prior to the candidates’ names being announced.

The city received 71 applications for the top management position. Officials are hopeful of having a new candidate on board by the first of March.
