Allyson Gamble appointed Executive Director, Capitol Preservation Board

SALT LAKE CITY -- Allyson Gamble has been appointed the Executive Director of the Capitol Preservation Board. The Capitol Preservation Board approved Gamble's appointment at its meeting on July 19, 2010.

A working group of the Board recommended that Ms. Gamble be appointed as the Executive Director. The Board accepted the Division of Facilities Construction and Management's offer to perform the Board's accounting functions resulting in a reduction of one FTE. The recommendations were unanimously adopted by the Capitol Preservation Board.

The Executive Director's responsibilities include maintenance, restoration and long range plans for the seven buildings and grounds of the Utah Capitol Complex. The Executive Director also oversees the capitol visitor services program, event and space scheduling, food services and the Capitol gift store.

Ms. Gamble was appointed Acting Interim Director of the Capitol Preservation Board in January, 2010 following the resignation of David Hart. She had been the Director of Communications & Visitor Services.
