Under Homan’s leadership, Delaware also is embracing 21st Century technology with a fiber-optic network that adds a new dimension to economic development opportunities

A graduate of both Michigan State University’s James Madison College and New York University’s Wagner School of Public Service, where he received a master degree in public administration, Homan previously held manager positions in Connecticut and New York.  He is an accredited member of the International City Manager’s Association.
