Castle Rock’s finalist for Town Manager has been named. Pending council’s approval on April 7, 2015, David Corliss, could be the new Town Manager of Castle Rock.
Mr. Corliss comes to us from our neighboring state of Kansas. There, Corliss had been the City Manager of Lawrence, having held the seat for the past nine years, since 2006.

Corliss has a Bachelor of Arts with Honors in Political Science, a Masters in Public Administration, and Juris Doctorate degree all from the University of Kansas.
