Shortly after the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors came out of their closed session on Wednesday night, they announced the hiring of someone from within to serve as their legal counsel on a temporary basis.
“I move that the Board adopt a resolution appointing the interim county attorney who will be Andy Herrick after as of September 1, 2024,” said Rivanna District Supervisor Bea LaPisto Kirtley.
Herrick is currently the deputy county attorney and will take over from Steven Rosenberg who is retiring from a career in public service after spending more than two and a half years as Albemarle’s top attorney.
“It means a great deal to me to have your confidence and to have this offer and I look forward to continuing the good work that’s been started and I look forward to this opportunity,” Herrick said.
Herrick has also served as assistant county attorney in James City County and for the City of Williamsburg for a private practice that served the function of the city attorney.
