The Town took the opportunity to redefine the position of ADG, which will henceforth be called &#8221; <strong>Assistant Director General | Projects and Community<\/strong> &#8220;. Our new ADG will focus on major strategic and structuring projects affecting the community, such as affordable housing, major infrastructures and economic diversification, to name but a few.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a rigorous selection process involving numerous candidates, Ms. Cusson came out on top, and the Town is delighted to welcome her. With over ten years&#8217; experience in the municipal sector, notably as Director of Finance and Treasury for the Town of Brome Lake and Mayor of East-Farnham, our new ADG will bring all her skills and knowledge to complement, support and co-lead the administrative team. Ms. Cusson was recently awarded the Prix d&#8217;excellence in the <em>Rayonnement local et r\u00e9gional<\/em> category by the Corporation des officiers municipaux agr\u00e9\u00e9s du Qu\u00e9bec (COMAQ) in 2025.  <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sutton.ca\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Photo-Caroline-Cusson-780x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-97172\" style=\"width:257px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Ms. Caroline Cusson : &#8220;It is with great enthusiasm and pride that I take up the position of Assistant Director General | Projects and Community at the Town of Sutton.
