The Kennebec Valley Council of Governments (KVCOG) recently announced that its board of directors has appointed Joel Greenwood as executive director.
Eric Dyer, KVCOG board president and town manager of Readfield, announced the appointment in a news release. “We are excited for the opportunity to bring one of our most talented and experienced employees into the executive director role on a permanent basis. Joel is already well known to our membership and fully aware of KVCOG operations and services, which will result in a near seamless transition for the organization,” Dyer said. “In his new position, Joel’s expertise as a planner will strengthen KVCOG’s essential role in supporting regional and local planning initiatives and provide deliberate and thoughtful leadership.”
Greenwood succeeds Matthew Underwood, who tendered his resignation in late January. Greenwood has been with KVCOG since 2011 and has had more than 20 years of experience in nonprofit work, redevelopment, economic development in rural communities and all aspects of rural and urban planning. He has years of experience in all aspects of KVCOG’s operations, existing relationships with its members and is an admired mentor and leader to the KVCOG team, according to the news release. .
