and for those that have been involved in the past search that led us to melanie and 3-1/2 great years of working with her, it's going to sound familiar because in many ways it's patterned after that process. it's also been -- we looked at a couple other processes particularly in regard to a search that commissioner wan was involved with with the juvenile probation commission when she was commissioner over there. and they went through a search. but what i wanted to kind of share is where we currently stand in terms of the process. and several commissioners really wanted to be active in having this conversation here to talk about what questions we want to ask in this process and what we think we're looking for as we go out there and try to find our next director to build upon the successes that melanie has delivered for the department. so, just in a quick summary and acting director osman can help me with any details that i might miss as i try to just be to the point. there was a look at using the search firm. i know that last time there was not a search firm and it was great deal of wo
