Tim Drawbridge Leaving City Service

Tim Drawbridge, the City’s first full-time Communications Director, is taking a new position in the Capital District closer to his daughter, and will be leaving the City before the end of the month.

“Tim has taken on a significant challenge here in Glens Falls,” said Mayor Collins. “Tim is the City’s first true communications director – and if we learned anything during his tenure, it’s that the position is critical to keeping City residents informed.”

“While we all are sad that he is leaving, we appreciate all of his hard work to blaze the trail on the outreach processes we are now using every day,” Collins said.

During his tenure, Tim created hundreds of press statements and news releases, developed processes to ensure that critical information was distributed as widely as possible, and set in motion a number of upcoming changes that are expected to streamline how City news and events are published.

“It has been my incredible honor to work with Mayor Collins and all of the talented City employees who go about their work largely unnoticed,” said Drawbridge. “I hope that we’ve been able to shine a light on all of the hard work being done for the benefit of the community.”

Thanks to Tim, the City has presences on social media channels that didn’t exist previously, expanding the ability for the City to reach out directly to more residents than ever before: “With Tim’s departure, we will be posting the position immediately in an effort to have little to no break in outreach with our residents,” said Collins. “You can find job information on the City’s social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn), and on the City website at https://cityofglensfalls.com/jobs.aspx
