Herald-Sun, 4 Mar 2008 

Officials announced Monday night that Steve Medlin has
been hired as Durham's new city/county planning
director. 

Medlin has been running the department on an interim
basis since former City/County Planning Director Frank
Duke's departure last summer. Duke left to take a
similar job in Norfolk, Va. 

City Manager Patrick Baker and County Manager Mike
Ruffin agreed on the appointment, which had been in
the works for several weeks. Medlin, the department's
former assistant director, will earn $114,000 a year.
