WELCOME OUR NEW CITY MANAGER, PAUL MCLARTY! The Nassau Bay Mayor and City Council have selected Paul McLarty as the new City Manager.
In partnership with recruiting firm Strategic Government Resources (SGR), a Selection Committee appointed by City Council reviewed a total of 36 applicants. During their regular meeting on Monday, April 11, City Council approved an employment contract with McLarty, who comes to the City after nearly 19 years with Clear Creek Independent School District (CCISD).
"I have lived in the Clear Lake area since 1996 and love everything about Nassau Bay," McLarty said. "I am both honored and humbled to be given the opportunity to build upon the success that is already evident in our community. I look forward to becoming a part of this very special community and meeting everyone in the near future."
Since 2011, McLarty has served as the Deputy Superintendent of Business and Support Services with CCISD, and served as Chief Financial Officer with the district from 2003-2011. He has worked for other school districts including Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District and Galveston Independent School District. He also spent approximately five years as the Director of Finance & Administration/ County Budget Officer for Galveston County. McLarty holds a Master of Business Administration in Finance from the University of Houston as well as a Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance from Texas A&M. He is also a member of the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) and a Foundation Board Member of the Space Center Rotary Endowment Foundation. McLarty will officially begin on June 1, 2022 with Interim City Manager Tim Cromie continuing to serve in the meantime.
