After creating the position earlier this year, the Town of Dartmouth hired former Dartmouth Week reporter Magnolia McComish as the Town’s new Communications Coordinator.

McComish will act as the main point of contact for press and media relations. She will also work to inform the public of town projects and goals through the use of direct public outreach, social media, the Town’s Engagement Portal and the website.

“We are excited to have Magnolia onboard as the Town’s first ever Communications Coordinator,” said Town Administrator Shawn MacInnes in the Town’s press release. “This position provides a great opportunity for Dartmouth’s local government to implement consistent two-way communication with the public on the significant projects and initiatives impacting the community.”
