After more than two years on the job, Calaveras County Director of Public Works Joshua Pack is leaving his position at the end of the year to take on a new role as the director of public works for Butte County. While Pack acknowledged that the move was a ânatural career progression,â he said his main reason for leaving was to be closer to family. âI live in Nevada City, and Iâve been commuting for the last two-plus years. That has been really difficult, just on the family side of things, and COVID-19 has really exacerbated that,â he said. âIt has nothing to do with Calaveras â Iâve really enjoyed my time here. It really has to do with family, just getting back home and being close to my family and all those things that are really important in life.â
