The 14 help wanted ads in this week's classifieds offer such jobs as a transit agency general manager and an executive director in academia!

Jim Cline, president of the Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA) in Lewisville, TX, is stepping away from that position for an anticipated period of a year to serve in Afghanistan.  Cline is a 26-year veteran of the Texas Army National Guard, which called him to active duty as a lieutenant colonel with the 176th Engineer Brigade.

Jim Witt, who served as DCTA president until earlier this year, will return on July 6 to lead the agency as its chief executive officer. He has been working part-time with the agency to stay abreast of ongoing and developing issues.

For the National Guard, Cline was previously assigned as commander of the 386th Engineer Battalion. He has served in various capacities stateside, including liaison officer for the Dallas area during Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005.

“Jim Witt and I share a desire for continuity of leadership during my absence and during this dynamic time in the agency’s history,” Cline said. “Witt returning means DCTA’s positive momentum and aggressive strategy of service delivery can continue unimpeded by my deployment.”
