The Chula Vista City Council has unanimously approved Tiffany Allen as the next city manager, officials announced Wednesday.
According to a news release, Allen “is an exceptional leader with a wealth of experience and deep understanding of Chula Vista’s unique needs,” City Council members said.
“We are confident that under Tiffany’s leadership, Chula Vista will continue to thrive and achieve even greater success in the years ahead while meeting the evolving needs of our community,” they added.
Allen’s appointment will take effect Oct. 3, following the council approving her contract at an upcoming meeting, according to the city.
Allen will replace Maria V. Kachadoorian, who is retiring after almost 40 year of public service, officials said.
Allen has held several roles in Chula Vista government over the past 20 years, including deputy city manager, development services director and assistant director and treasury manager.
She focused on budget management, infrastructure finance and land development, according to city officials.
Allen — who lives with her family in Chula Vista — said she looked forward to “working collaboratively with the City Council, city staff and the community.”
“I am honored and thrilled to become city manager for Chula Vista at such a pivotal time in its growth and development,” she added.
City officials said Allen “has been instrumental in leading efforts like the development of the Chula Vista Bayfront, University and Innovation District, and other key projects like the city’s first-ever project labor agreement.”
Allen’s duties will involve the continued bayfront development, the Millenia Library, University and Innovation District.
She will also focus on improving public infrastructure, promoting economic growth and more community engagement, officials said.
Allen is a member of the Urban Land Institute, Lambda Alpha International, the International City/County Management Association, the California City Management Foundation and the Municipal Management Association of Southern California.
