The City Council is looking for a replacement for longtime City Clerk Genevieve Wong, who retired at the beginning of July.

Councilwoman Barbara Marshall will head the selection committee, which includes Councilwoman Ann Kobayashi, former City Clerk Ray Pua and retired Air Force Brig. Gen. Frances Mossman.

Anyone interested in applying should send a resume and references to Marshall at Honolulu Hale, 530 S. King St., Honolulu, HI 96813. Applications may also be made by fax at 550-6701, or e-mail bmarshall@co.honolulu.hi.us. The application deadline is Wednesday.
