Arlington Rec Leader Rescinds Resignation: Report

ARLINGTON, MA — A town leader has decided to return to her position after planning to resign, according to a report from YourArlington.

Director of Recreation and Community Services Natasha Waden announced early last month she was leaving her position for a job with the town of Andover. However, she announced she had changed her mind during the Parks and Recreation Commission’s most recent meeting.

The town reportedly gave Waden a raise of approximately 9 percent in an effort to retain her, and it played a role in her ultimate decision to stay. Town Manager Jim Feeney expressed his pleasure with Waden’s job performance and that he was determined to retain her.

Waden has 20 years of experience working for Arlington, primarily in the Health and Human Services Department.
