Jamie Heinz was confirmed by the Anchorage Assembly today to take over as city clerk from Barbara Jones, who announced her retirement earlier this year after 24 years of service.
Jamie Heinz is sworn in as Anchorage Municipal Clerk by departing clerk Barbara Jones.
Heinz has more than 12 years of clerking experience, serving as the deputy clerk for elections in Anchorage since last year and city clerk for Kenai for four years before that. Heinz will oversee the city clerk’s office, which provides information regarding public meetings, helps connect the public with their elected officials and conducts municipal elections.
“It’s really bittersweet and she has very big shoes to fill,” Heinz said. “But I’m looking forward to the opportunities and the challenges.”
