Former Pacific City Clerk Sandy Paul has been appointed interim city clerk and personnel manager, replacing Patti Kirkpatrick, whom Mayor Cy Sun let go two weeks ago.

Paul served as Pacific clerk, beginning in 2004 under former mayor Rich Hildreth.

Paul also was the city clerk for Des Moines and served as president of the Washington Municipal Clerks Association from March 2012 to March 2013.

The City Council still has yet to approve Paul’s appointment.
