The City of Cleveland has a new finance director. John Solmon was welcomed to the city government during Monday’s Cleveland City Council.
Cleveland City Administrator Kevin Harris shared information about Solomon with the council saying, “He graduated from the University of North Georgia, and he has extensive experience essential to our daily operation. Prior to coming to the city of Cleveland, he was an owner and operator of a multi-located tax service business and previously was an assistant comptroller for an oil company.”
Harris said Solmon is a certified public accountant and is working on government finance training online with the University of Georgia.
In addition to his service to the city of Cleveland, Solmon also serves as a District 2 White County Board of Education member.
Harris said Solmon’s community experience, along with his academic background, will serve the City of Cleveland well.
