Stacey Forfar will take over for the outgoing Alan Shaw July 8.

Prior to that, she held positions with the City of Barrie, City of Kingston, and the City of Saint John, New Brunswick.

Sarnia CAO Chris Carter says Forfar's experience in municipal operations, growth management and community partnership building will be a tremendous asset to the city.
