Phil Alonso has taken over the position from Sue Van Son, who is retiring, although is staying on for another month or so during the transition. Alonso lives in Alta Sierra, and previously worked at the Child Abuse Prevention Center in Sacramento. He says he jumped at the chance to apply when he heard about this opportunity…
