By SDUN Staff<\/strong><\/p>\n

North Park Main Street (NPMS) has appointed a new executive director.<\/p>\n

Angela Landsberg, 42, is NPMS\u2019 selection, out of the 120 people who applied for the position, to lead the community organization for the year ahead.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe received about 120 resumes, which we filtered down to 22,\u201d said president of NPMS\u2019 board of directors David Muscat, adding that NPMS formed a separate committee and hired two independent consultants to
\nensure the decision would be made as impartially as possible.<\/p>\n

The role of the executive director, Muscat said, is multi-fold: The director must possess \u201cthe ability to run the administrative side of a nonprofit and be able to interface with [city councilmembers].\u201d Ideally, a director
\nwill also be a resident of the area, although this is not necessary. However, the main criteria is
\nless where the person lives than possessing the objectivity to see issues from both business owners\u2019
\nand residents\u2019 perspectives. He or she must also have events planning and grant writing experience,
\nMuscat added.<\/p>\n

Landsberg, who lived in South Park for 12 years before moving, in 2008, to North Park, where she\u2019s lived periodically since childhood, replaces NPMS\u2019 former executive director, Liz Studebaker, who held the oneyear-
\nterm position since January 2007.<\/p>\n

Landsberg, whose former positions include campaign manager for Christine Kehoe\u2019s re-election campaign for City Council in 1995 and legislative representative in District 3 City Council, says she\u2019s \u201cthrilled and honored\u201d to have been selected to the position.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe former executive director left big shoes to fill with her many accomplishments, but I am confident and up to the challenge of bringing North Park to its next level of success,\u201d Landsberg said.<\/p>\n

The petite, vibrant Landsberg, who lives with her two daughters and her dog, Rosebud, said she loves North Park\u2019s diversity and friendliness. \u201c\u201cI raised my daughters here, and enjoy that our neighborhood is a mix of people from other places as well as residents who have been here for generations. The community has so much to offer, and the restaurants are some of the best in San Diego.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked about her goals in the year ahead, Landsberg said that North Park has gained a national reputation as a destination for arts, culture and entertainment and she intends \u201cto support the existing businesses, bring in new businesses that enhance the vision of North Park, and bring additional resources to the area to increase the revitalization of this unique community.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
