Rancho Santa Fe Association manager resigns

The Rancho Santa Fe Association board announced last week that Manager Christy Whalen has resigned. Her last day on the job will be June 15.

In a message to the community on May 8, RSF Association Board President Dan Comstock thanked Whalen for her dedication and commitment to Rancho Santa Fe.

“Under her leadership, the Association has enjoyed stability, momentum and success. Her achievements have included the RSF Connect high-speed internet project, lowering speed limits on roads in the Ranch, Firewatch fire risk mitigation and improved communications, among others,” Comstock wrote. “Our 2022 member survey revealed extremely high levels of satisfaction with the community and the Association, much of which can be attributed to Christy and the talented team of professionals that she built. We wish her well in her future endeavors.”

Whalen joined the Association in 2015 as the communications manager. She served as assistant manager and then interim manager prior to being officially appointed to the head job in 2018. More details are expected to be shared at this week’s annual meeting on Thursday, May 11 at the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club. — Karen Billing
