Nicole Pietrzak Confirmed as NorCo's New Direcotor of Administration

At their March 21 meeting, Northampton County Council voted unanimously to confirm Nicole Pietrzak as the County's Director of Administration. She was confirmed without discussion and will be paid $107,481 a year. 

Pietrzak succeeds Charles Deringer, who resigned in the wake of the botched 2023 municipal election. She had been serving in an acting capacity prior to her confirmation. Prior to that, she was employed by as a Deputy Director of Human Resources since May 2022.  

She has a BA from Kutztown University. 

Prior to her appointment, Pietrzak had no experience providing direct management oversight of Administrative Services, Emergency Management Services (EM & 911), Weights and Measures, Agricultural Extension, Farmland Preservation, Conduct of Elections, or the Conservation District. She does have experience in negotiating collective bargaining agreements.

Another person that McClueless can control! He wrecked Northampton County Government. He needs to go.

7:50, The Director of Admin is an exempt hire, i.e. the person selected is a political hire who comes and goes with the Exec. Of course, McClure should pick someone he can control for this position. To suggest otherwise is absurd.

Union stooge. A plant. Yet another mindless automaton bowing to McNure.

Are you kidding me! What a disaster Northampton County government is in hiring unqualified people for any position.
This is almost as bad as trump selling bibles to fund his legal bills. Almost as bad as Lara Trump running the RNC. Maybe, almost as bad as voting for any republicans ever again.

She sounds exquisitely unqualified. Awesome.
