The mission of the Executive Office is to implement the County Board's policies, represent the interests
of the county with other governmental agencies and groups, as well as provide leadership to the
departments to achieve the organization's goals and objectives.
The County Manager is responsible for the day to day administrative operations of Cumberland County
government. The County Manager advises the Board of Commissioners on policy matters, implements
policies established by the Board, and provides facts and data on county government to other
governmental agencies, the state legislature, interested groups and individuals.
The Assistant County Manager is responsible for the oversight of three departments: the Emergency
Management Office, The Emergency Communciations Department (Cumberland County Regional Communications Center), and the Facilities Department. In addition, he is responsible for overseeing
the County Information Program, helping to facilitate our regional services initiatives, and assisting
with the implementation of the county's strategic plan.
The Domestic Violence Coordinator reports to the county manager. Her major responsibility is coordination
of the Violence Intervention Partnership Council which consists of representatives from the CC District Attorney's Office, the municipal police departments, the CC Sheriff's Office, Domestic Violence Agency
Representatives, and other key stakeholders. Priorities include developing policies, educational programs,
and training in police departments.
The Grants/Special Projects Coordinator has made a major contribution to the county with over $3 million dollars in federal and state funding received during the past two years, including community development block grant funds to help our communities meet important economic development, public infrastructure and housing needs. In addition, grant funds have been awarded that have enabled Cumberland County in collaboration with our municipalities to examine new opportunities for improving our local public health system as well as creating a regional tax assessing system that may or may not be through the county with real savings to taxpayers and improved services.
