Temecula City Clerk Randi Johl-Olson has been named 2016 City Clerk of the Year by the City Clerks Association of California.
Johl-Olson began working as Temecula’s city clerk in 2014 after having held that position in Fountain Valley and Lodi, according to a statement on the city’s website..
She also worked as a law clerk for Harper & Burns LLP, a law firm in the City of Orange, and has held several positions with the League of California Cities.
“We knew Randi would bring a high caliber of experience to the city, but what we’ve found to be additionally exceptional is her outstanding work ethic, devotion and enthusiasm to serve the community and this is clearly notable statewide,” Temecula Mayor Mike Naggar said in the statement. “I am not surprised she was selected as Clerk of the Year for California.”
Johl-Olson was chosen from among nearly 500 city clerks statewide, after nominations were submitted by council members, city managers, city attorneys and city clerks, according to the statement.
