Brooklyn Park expected to approve new city manager

Brooklyn Park is close to having a new city manager. James Verbrugge, who is currently the Rosemount city administrator, received an offer from the city earlier this week. The City Council is expected to officially approve Verbrugge's contract at its meeting Monday. The city has been looking for a replacement for City Manager Doug Reeder, whose last day is March 31. If approved, Verbrugge would start in Brooklyn Park on April 21. His salary, which is still under negotiation, would be $144,700 a year. He has been in his position in Rosemount since 2003. Previously he worked for the city of Eagan as assistant city administrator. He has a bachelor's degree in history and political science from St. Cloud State University and a master's degree in public administration from Hamline University.
